COMMENT - Mortgages have shown the highly disordered have changed the 'culture' of law and practice in the United States. Faked rules and procedures are now accepted as normal and the outrageous injustices thereby carried out, have become acceptable.
All lawyers and judges and bankers should be required to undergo the Hare Index for psychopathy. Then those who pass as normal (if there are any) should be required to undergo therapy.

Scott Stafne goes to Dallas
In search of Continuing Legal Education credits I wandered into a different world last Thursday and Friday at the American Conference Institute’s Residential Mortgage & Regulatory Conference,
Dallas, TX. The people at the conference, mostly lawyers for
institutions seeking to eject people from their homes, were clearly
human beings; Mostly youngish (under 55). Except for a token two-person
panel representing home owners and a group of judges, most of the
speakers seemed to agree that there was little need for meaningful
judicial involvement in throwing home owners out of their homes. Indeed,
many appeared indignant that families would not simply march out of their homes into the elements because their creditors beckoned them to do so.
One of the token “two member” homeowner defense panel complained that
in Florida, where she practiced, the Courts had instituted a five
minute trial system, for both contested and uncontested foreclosure
cases. She complained (as well she should) that judges should treat
contested cases differently. According to her Florida judges were not
much inclined to do so; notwithstanding centuries of American
jurisprudence which requires both sides to a dispute be given an
opportunity to present their case.
A
creditor’s lawyer belittled her concerns about requiring creditors to
prove they actually own the debt, upon which a foreclosure is based. He
incorrectly implied it was a completely acceptable practice for judges
to exercise their discretion in determining whether hearsay should be
admissible and documents should be considered authentic.
