First Criminal Case Filed On Robo-Signing

First criminal case filed on robo signing in Navada.  The two indicted are Orange County residents in the scandal.

Gary Trafford and Geraldine "Gerri" Sheppard have been asked to surender to authorities by the Nevada Attorney General's Office.  Bail is set at $500,000 per person.

Both are title officers who worked for the Jacksonville, Florida mortgage servicing firm Lender Processing Services. 

The indictment accuses them of directring employees to file "tens of thousands" of default notices on Clark County, Nevada, homes that contained forged signatures that had been fraudulently notarized. 

This is still a mess.  The foreclosure of so many people have been tainted by these two individuals.

It's like the joke about lawyers . . . what do you call 1,000 lawyers chained to the bottom of the ocean?  A good start!  This case is a good start.  :-)

Now that is a first that I would not like to have.  Most things I am pretty competitive to earn.  Not this.

It is going to be interesting.  I do not know how the company escaped and just the employee is the problem.  However, that is what happened.

I wound not want to be known for having anything to do with that kind of a problem.  Guess I am successful at not being involved in Robo anything.
