beneficial holder, the Bank of New York Mellon f/k/a The Bank
of New York.
43. The Defendant Litton Loan Servicing LP by the same letter
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
11/28
11
dated April 6, 2010 also refused to provide the numerous and
substantial documentation requested by the Plaintiffs letter,
although the letter falsely indicated that partial compliance
of the request was being undertaken by providing copies of the
Note, Deed of Trust, Detail Transaction History, Truth-in-
Lending Disclosure Statement, Good Faith Estimate, and
Settlement Statement. No copies were actually provided.
44. On April 24, 2010 the Defendant Litton Loan Servicing, LP
again wrote the Plaintiff to indicate that the five referenced
documents that purported to be served on April 6, 2010 were
then being tendered. The letter again contained no
attachments.
45. On or about May 19, 2010 Plaintiff tendered the sum of
$29,923.52 to Defendant Old Republic Default Management
Services, which included the sum of $26,479.12 paid to
Defendant Litton Loan Servicing LP, and $3,444.40 paid to
Defendant Old Republic Default Management Services.
46. On June 3, 2010 Defendant Old Republic Default Management
Services caused to be filed a Notice of Rescission of Notice
of Default with the San Diego County Recorders Office.
47. On September 21, 2010 the original complaint in this matter
was filed as against the Defendants New York Bank Mellon, and
Old Republic Default Management Services seeking to quiet
title as against those defendants.
48. On or about November 1, 2010, the Defendant New York Bank
Mellon caused to be filed a Memorandum of Points and
Authorities in support of a Demurrer that it had filed which
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
12/28
12
stated in a footnote on page 2: Plaintiff does not allege
that Bank of New York is the current holder of his loan. Bank
of New York represents that this is true.
49. Therefore, the Defendant Bank of New York Mellon has
confirmed in writing that it claims to be the current holder
of the Mortgage Note identified in above.
50. Notwithstanding the above statement of Defendant New York
Bank Mellon, the same Defendants appearance in this matter,
however, also indicated contrary information: Defendant Bank
of New York Mellon f/k/a The Bank of New York as Trustee for
the Certificateholders CWMBS, Inc. Asset-Backed Certificates,
Series 2002-35 (sued herein as The Bank of New York Mellon
Corporation.)
51. Therefore, it appears that the Defendant New York Bank
Mellon also concurrently maintains that it is the true holder
of the note, and also purports to hold the interest in the
Mortgage Note as a trustee for another entity, the Defendant
CWMBS, Inc.
52. The written appearance filed by New York Bank Mellon on
behalf of as Trustee for the Certificateholders CWMBS, Inc.
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2002-35 indicates that the
Defendants maintain that the Plaintiffs Mortgage Note has
been securitized and has been made part of Asset-Backed
Certificates, Series 2002-35, purportedly owned by Defendant
CWMBS, Inc. as part of a Mortgage Pool securitization.
53. According to the records of the Federal Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), the information related to Asset-
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
13/28
13
Backed Certificates, Series 2002-35 was established by
Defendant CWMBS, Inc in a prospectus filed with the SEC.
54. At page 46 and page 47 of the prospectus filed with the SEC
the Defendant CWMBS, Inc. established the required manner
Mortgage Notes and Deeds of Trust would be placed into the
referenced security instrument, as follows:
Assignment of the Mortgage Loans. At the time of issuance
of the certificates of a series, the depositor will cause
the mortgage loans comprising the related trust fund to be
assigned to the trustee, together with all principal and
interest received by or on behalf of the depositor on or
with respect to the mortgage loans after the cut-off date,
other than principal and interest due on or before the cut-
off date and other than any retained interest specified in
the related prospectus supplement. The trustee will,
concurrently with the assignment, deliver the certificates
to the depositor in exchange for the mortgage loans. Each
mortgage loan will be identified in a schedule appearing as
an exhibit to the related pooling and servicing agreement.
The schedule will include information as to the outstanding
principal balance of each mortgage loan after application
of payments due on the cut-off date, as well as information
regarding the mortgage rate, the current scheduled monthly
payment of principal and interest, the maturity of the
loan, the Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination and other
specified information.
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
14/28
14
In addition, the depositor will deliver or cause to be
delivered to the trustee (or to the custodian) for each
mortgage loan
- the mortgage note endorsed without recourse in blank
or to the order of the trustee, except that the depositor
may deliver or cause to be delivered a lost note affidavit
in lieu of any original mortgage note that has been lost,
- the mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument with
evidence of recording indicated on it (except for any
mortgage not returned from the public recording office, in
which case the depositor will deliver or cause to be
delivered a copy of the mortgage together with a
certificate that the original of the mortgage was delivered
to the recording office or some other arrangement will be
provided for),
- an assignment of the mortgage to the trustee in
recordable form and
- any other security documents specified in the related
prospectus supplement or the related pooling and servicing
agreement.
55. The Defendant CWMBS, Inc., in creating the security
instrument which Defendant New York Bank Mellon purports to
hold the Mortgage Note and Deed of Trust related to the
property in question created a contemporaneous requirement
that the original endorsed Note and Deed of Trust was required
to be tendered to the Defendant at the initiation of the
securitization.
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
15/28
15
56. The Plaintiffs are informed and believe and on said
information and belief alleged that Defendant CWMBS, Inc. does
not in fact possess the 4 documents required under the
prospectus filed with the Federal Securities and Exchange
commission as it relates to the Mortgage Note and the Deed of
Trust identified above.
57. As part of a related Pooling and Service Agreement (PSA)
the Defendant CWMBS, Inc. provided an explicit method a
Mortgage Note would be transferred to the Mortgage Pool.
58. As is common in all PSAs the Mortgage Note Holder would be
required to deliver the original mortgage note, endorsed by
manual or facsimile signature in blank in the following form:
Pay to the order of ___________ without recourse, with all
intervening endorsement that show the complete chain of
endorsement from the originator to the Person endorsing the
Mortgage Note.
59. Accordingly, based on the very contract that created the
PSA the Defendants are required to have possession of the
original Mortgage Note and the original Deed of Trust,
together with all relevant endorsements such that the complete
chain of endorsement is demonstrable and verifiable, and
subject to discovery in the pending cause of action.
60. The Plaintiffs are informed, believe, and on said
information and belief assert that none of the Defendants are
in possession of the original Mortgage Note and Deed of Trust
and are not in possession of the endorsements required by the
very contract that served to create the securitization
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
16/28

agreement that claims to hold the Note and Deed of Trust.
61. On October 6, 2010 the Defendant Old Republic Default
Management Services, again purporting to act as Trustee,
caused to be filed at the San Diego County Recorders Office a
Notice of Default and Election to Sell under Deed of Trust
as against the Plaintiffs property described above, demanding
the sum of $10,731.22, or threatening the loss of the
Plaintiffs property to non-judicial foreclosure absent
payment as demanded.
62. Together with the Notice of Default, the Defendant Old
Republic Default Management Services caused to be filed an
invalid Declaration of Compliance with California Civil Code
Section 2923.5(b) dated February 4, 2010, purporting to comply
with a contemporaneous requirement of law some eight months
BEFORE the Default in question.
63. No timely Declaration of Compliance with California Civil
Code Section 2923.5(b) was filed, recorded or served on
Plaintiff by the Defendant Old Republic Default Management
Services, Inc. following the purported default of October
2010.
64. On December 28, 2010 the Plaintiff paid the Defendant
Litton Loan Servicing LP the sum of $22,802.00, which included
the approximate sum of $2,776.74 in favor of Defendant Old
Republic Default Management Services.
65. On or about December 10, 2011 the Plaintiff, HomeownerHomeowner
Homeowner, will tender the sum of $3,201.47 to Defendant Litton Loan
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
17/28
17
Servicing, LP. as the monthly mortgage payment demanded by the
Defendant.
66. The Plaintiff will continue to make the same payment
demanded on a monthly basis pending further order of the court
and/or resolution of the pending complaint.
67. At this time, there is no non-judicial foreclosure
pending as against the Plaintiffs property by any putative
creditor, and there should be no current active Notice of
Default filed as against the property by the putative
creditors.
68. All of the acts of the Defendants as set forth above are
consistent with a claimed right or ownership of the subject
Note and Deed of Trust by the Defendants, which claimed right
and or ownership, is disputed by the Plaintiffs.
69. Plaintiffs are informed, believe, and on said information
and belief allege that the Defendants, and each of them, claim
a right title and interest in the Mortgage Note and Deed of
Trust referenced above.
70. The Plaintiffs deny the legitimacy of the Defendants
claimed right, title and interest in the Mortgage Note and
Deed of Trust referenced above.

COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY RELIEF
80. The Statement of facts as it relates to identification of
the parties and as fully forth in Paragraphs 1 to 18 are
incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth
herein.
81. The Statement of facts as it relates to the conduct of the

incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
20/28
20
herein.
82. An actual controversy has arisen and now exists between the
Plaintiffs and each of the Defendants concerning their
respective rights and duties in that:
a. The Plaintiffs contend that NONE of the Defendants are
the current successor or assign to Countrywide Home
Loans, Inc. relative to the Note identified above, and
therefore NONE of the Defendants, has any right seek or
obtain any payments that may be due thereunder, as well
as any remedies for non-payment that may also be set
forth therein, and that NONE of the Defendants has any
right, title or interest in the Note identified above.
b. The Plaintiffs contend that none of the Defendants has
any beneficial right, interest, or security under the
Deed of Trust identified above, and therefore none of the
defendants has any right to exercise the power of sale
granted therein, nor seek to collect any amount that may
be owed thereunder, or exercise any right granted in said
instrument.
c. Whereas the Defendants dispute the contentions set forth
in a above, and instead contend that they are in fact
the current successor or assign to Countrywide Home
Loans, Inc. relative to the Note identified above, and
they claim they are entitled to receive the payments due
thereunder, and well as all rights granted therein; and,
d. The Defendants also dispute the contentions set forth in
b above, and instead contend that they in fact maintain
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
21/28
21
the security interest and power of sale granted in the
Deed of Trust above.
83. A judicial declaration is necessary and appropriate at this
time under the circumstances in order that Plaintiffs may
ascertain their rights and duties relative to the Note and
Deed of Trust referenced above as it relates to the claims
that are now in controversy. In addition, resolution of this
controversy will allow the Plaintiffs to know with certainty
that any payments made under the Note and Deed of Trust are
received by the true beneficial owner of same, and are
actually being credited to reduce Plaintiffs financial
obligation there under. Resolution of the controversy will also
allow the Plaintiffs the use and enjoyment of their property
without the constant threat of foreclosure, collection
efforts, and repeated filings of notices as against their
property. Finally, resolution of the controversy will allow
the Plaintiffs to remove negative credit references placed
with credit reporting agencies by the Defendants.
84. To date, the Plaintiff has incurred out-of-pocket damages
in the amount of $80,737.48, which sum increases by $3,201.47
on a monthly basis as payments will continue to be made to the
Defendants as demanded.
85. There are no administrative remedies available to the
Plaintiff to resolve the controversy.
86. The Plaintiff has attempted on numerous occasions to obtain
the name and documentation of the current holder of the Note
in question, including the letter written to the Defendant
-
8/7/2019 Complaint Foreclosure With Restitution Coa
22/28
22
Litton Loans LP on April 15, 2010, but the attempts were
either ignored or rejected.
87. The Plaintiffs seek a Declaration that:
a. The Defendants are not the present holders of the Note
identified above.
b. The Defendants are not the successors or assigns of
Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. relative to the Note
identified above.

though fully set forth herein.
89. The Defendant, through mistake, coercion, and request has
-

obtained the sum of $80,737.48 from the Plaintiffs, and will
continue to obtain the sum of $3,201.47 from the Plaintiffs on
a monthly basis.
90. The Defendant was and is not entitled to the moneys paid,
because the Defendants, and each of them, have no right to
collect or receive any payments made under the Note and Deed
of Trust identified above.
91. The Plaintiff has paid the moneys demanded by the
Defendants based on the request and coercion of the Defendant
as more fully set forth in the Statement of facts above.

serve to unjustly enrich the Defendants to the detriment of
the Plaintiffs.
94. The Plaintiffs therefore request an order of restitution in
the amount equal to the loss suffered by the Plaintiff as set
forth above, in the amount of $80,737.48, increasing by
$3,201.47 per month.
