Foreclosure Fight Club | George Babcock to Mark Harmon “Send Your Minions..."
Foreclosure Fight Club | George Babcock to Mark Harmon “Send Your Minions that I May Lay Waste to them Before Me”


quote:



Harmon Law Office, PC
150 California Street
Newton, MA 02458
ATT:MARK HARMON, ESQUIRE

RE: TIMOTHY CONLEY
87 RIVERSIDE DRIVE, SOUTH KINGSTOWN, RI

Dear Mr. Harmon,

Please be advised that I have been retained by Mr. Conley regarding the notice of illegal
foreclosure you mailed to him on February 4, 2011. The chain of title to this property and the
note is like a walk down the yellow brick road. Is Harmon Law the Wizard of Title? You
display extreme indifference to the law by noticing a foreclosure on this property. As you
know, I take great pride in defending my clients against the evil forces that guide your actions.
Mr. Conley is a personal friend. It is my intention to be even more pugilistic in this matter. It is
disgusting and I will make sure that whoever violates his property rights is knocked out of the
ring. No TKOs will be accepted. A full fledged, right cross to the chin of the beast.

I look forward to a response although I am quite certain you will not engage me as is your
habit. Send your minions that I may lay waste to them before me.

I hope that this letter is circulated as has been your habit in the past. I like my enemy to
know that I am at its doorstep.

Very truly yours,


George E. Babcock, Esquire

2. Oh ho..Harmon has resigned from foreclosure law firm!!!
Edited on Fri Mar-04-11 09:08 AM by dixiegrrrrl
From further in the article of OP link:

Mark P. Harmon has resigned as a director at the Plantation foreclosure processing company with ties to David J. Stern’s law practice, as the Massachusetts Attorney General said it is investigating whether Harmon’s firm illegally evicted tenants from repossessed homes in that state.

Harmon’s resignation, announced by DJSP Enterprises Inc. on Monday, comes as the beleagured company said it is laying off another 198 employees, bringing the total to 300 within the past two weeks.

15. Righteous indignation.
I's OK for Christians to be angry over injustice and such.

7. Further down the page:
Mark P. Harmon has resigned as a director at the Plantation foreclosure processing company with ties to David J. Stern’s law practice, as the Massachusetts Attorney General said it is investigating whether Harmon’s firm illegally evicted tenants from repossessed homes in that state.

Harmon’s resignation, announced by DJSP Enterprises Inc. on Monday, comes as the beleaguered company said it is laying off another 198 employees, bringing the total to 300 within the past two weeks. Mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Stern's most prized clients, stopped referring foreclosures to his firm this month and Fannie has sent its legal consultants to review Stern's processes and operations.

Stern is the only major client of the publicly traded DJSP, one of the nation's largest foreclosure servicers with processing and title affiliates. It was created when Stern sold his law firm's non-legal operations to DJSP for $58 million.

Harmon's departure comes days after Stern himself, whose firm is under investigation by the Florida Attorney General, stepped down as DJSP's chairman. Stern continued on as DJSP's CEO, but president and Chief Operating Officer Richard Powers and Chief Financial Officer Howard S. Burnston voluntarily resigned at that time, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Why is the name David J. Stern so familiar?

9. Stern has been in the news a lot re: being a foreclosure mill law firm in Fla.
Probably why the name is so familiar.

10. Ah, so it's THIS David J. Stern
Mr. Stern, wealthy and secretive, is turning into one of the foreclosure tragedy's main characters, although not much about his life and work are known—and the only public photos of him are grainy. His firm was put in the spotlight with the recent release of a deposition by one of his former paralegals, who described a kind of Coen brothers-tier shadiness: When Fannie would came in to look at processing, for example, employees would dress up nicely and begin "typing in what they want to see."

But even before that deposition, Mother Jones did a piece about Mr. Stern that described sexual harassment charges, a class-action racketeering case, and his 16,000-square-foot mansion, plus a neighbor's place he bought last year for $8 million, for tennis court space. "When people say, 'Oh my God, the economy is bad,' I'm like, 'Oh my God, it's great,'" he is said to have told a crowd at a conference this year, where the band Social Distortion played a private show.

13. "Su Casa es Mi Casa"
I believe Stern contemplated naming one of his 100' yachts "Su Casa es Mi Casa". Simply heartwarming. Since Stern's "Law Firm" went down in flames due to nearly everything coming out of his office being riddled with fraud..he's been forced to sell one of his spare yachts and a few lavish homes. Stern and Harmon..both cut from the same slimy cloth.

16. Foreclosure defense is for chumps.
Folks,

The following comments and opinions are solely mine. As we are all painfully aware, what we often call “Foreclosuregate” is a major component of America’s financial sclerosis.

Although the deficits we are running in this country, and around the globe for that matter, are beyond count I believe one deficit in particular will prove to have the most grave consequences. The deficit I speak of is the credibility of our entire government. Foreclosuregate has exposed an utter systematic disregard for the rule of law going as far back as the Magna Carta and again clearly defined in the Constitution of the United States of America. A paradigm shift is in order. Foreclosure defense needs to become Foreclosure offense. It is time to board the HMS Eleanor, Dartmouth and Beaver once again.

Constant requests for discovery are insufficient to the extent they are nearly futile. Seize the prize and force our opponents to compel themselves to prove chain of custody as opposed to us having to prove they don’t. Yes, this requires a thorough understanding of the law. Further it requires a fighting spirit which should become evident upon reading the doc in the op.

The purpose of this email is not to advertise for this attorney but to promote his spirit and methodology. I’ll go out on a limb and guess he has no shortage of clients. I do not work for him.

He will be a featured guest on Joann Hennesseys’ radio program “Property Law Today” March 13 from 12:00 – 1:00 EST. I do not work for the show.
