MOTION BV KENNETH ERIC TRENT, ESQUIRE FOR I.EAVE


TO GIVE TESTIMONY AT FINAL IIEARING AND
Al.TERNATIVE MOTION TO INTE.RVENE

Comes now K.enneth Eric Trent, a Member in good standing of The Florida

Bar, (hereinafter "Movant"), and moves the Court w permit him to testify at the

inal 1learing in the above-styled cause or, in the alternative, to grant him leave to

ntervene. tn support of such requests, Movant shows unto the Court as follows:

Factual Basis

Mm ant H led a g:·icVance against Respondent. D:n id hmes Stern, on or about

July 2& 2010. alleging ra:npant fraud by Respondent and emplo-,ees olhis firm inthe

cremion of tblse and traudulent assignments of mortgage used and intended to be


used to establish the elements of plaintiffs' cases in residential foreclosure suits

throughout Florida. After some additional correspondence and documentation,

Movant's grievance was ultimately given Fla. Bar Case No.2011-50,216(17I), as

reflected in bold print in the case style above.

In support of his grievance, Movant cited to one emblematic assignment of

mortgage filed by Respondent's subordinate (also an attorney), in the foreclosure case

of Citimortgage, Inc. v. Dennis Brown, et al., Broward Circuit Court case no. 08­

011097. Movant was counsel for the defendants in that case, and received the

manufactured "evidence" from Respondent's firm after multiple motions to compel

discovery. It is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Ultimately, this matter was assigned to Bar Counsel Randi Lazarus, (hereinafter

"Bar Counsel"), and the undersigned provided information to her, including the

annotated version of the assignment (Exhibit B) and the deposition of Respondent's

employee and close associate Cheryl Samons which is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

The undersigned also deposed Ms. Samons and is the only one known to have

deposed Shannon Smith, another Stern employee involved in the wholesale

manufacturing of such documentary evidence.

As reflected in emails attached hereto as Exhibit D, Movant furnished materials

to Bar Counsel in response to her inquiries. As further reflected in Exhibit D, on June

19* of this year, Bar Counsel wrote to Movant and 6-8 other persons who had filed

grievances against Respondent, stating that the addressees (including Movant) would

be needed as live witnesses at the final hearing set to begin September 30*. The June

19* email, among other points, emphasized that, "It is my opinion that your live

appearance is important to the Bar's case."

Regrettably, on August 14*, Bar Counsel wrote to Movant and reversed her

stance as to the necessity of Movant's testimony in this proceeding. (Exhibit D). The

basis for this change was, apparently, an idea that Movant's testimony would be

duplicative. While Bar Counsel has every legal right to exercise her discretion in this

regard, Movant must disagree. Although some overlap is to be expected, Movant

submits that it is in the best interests ofjustice that he be heard.

Movant is uniquely positioned to testify about the use of the fraudulent and

fabricated document in the Brown case. Further, by virtue of having brought and

litigated a class action complaint against Respondent arising from and relating to the

Respondent's use of such assignments in foreclosure proceedings to simulate

evidence and thereby induce foreclosures to which the plaintiffs, represented by

Respondent, were not entitled, Movant can provide useful information about the

scope of the practice and the damages sustained by numerous persons who were

members of the proposed class..

3
Further, Movant has observed that these litigation tactics are often utilized by

Respondent and his representatives, in different contexts, to confuse the issues and

subvert the process. Movant is not motivated to file this Motion or to testify by any

prospect ofdirect financial gain or personal benefit. Instead, Movant simply believes

that the judicial system of our state is sorely in need of a fair and just public outcome

in this cause: one that may well deter future like conduct of others motivated to

subvert the process and the rules of evidence for their own selfish ends, and with

complete disregard for the rights of others.

The Legal Basis

Movant acknowledges Rule 3-7.6(k), which provides as follows:

(k) Complaining Witness. The complaining witness is not a party to the


disciplinary proceeding, and shall have no rights other than those of any other
witness. However, unless it is found to be impractical due to unreasonable
delay or other good cause, and after the complaining witness has testified
during the case in chief, the referee may grant the complaining witness the
right to be present at any hearing when the respondent is also present. A
complaining witness may be called upon to testify and produce evidence as any
other witness. Neither unwillingness nor neglect ofthe complaining witness to
cooperate, nor settlement, compromise, or restitution will excuse failure to
complete any trial. The complaining witness shall have no right to appeal.

While Movant does not have a right to the relief herein sought, it would appear from

this Rule that the complaining witness is generally expected to testify at the final

hearing.

4
While time simply does not permit any further discussion of these matters

within this document, Movant submits that the interests of integrity and justice

strongly support the granting of the relief herein sought.

Respectfully submitted this 26* day of September, 2013.

INDEX TO CONTENTS OF TYPICAL STERN

ASSIGNMENT OF MORTGAGE

A) "Prepared by DAVID J. STERN"

As stated in my complaint to The Bar, I have a summary of a depo of Cheryl

Samons in which she said she acts on the instructions of David Stern in signing

assignments.

1) "Residina or located at c/o PO. BOX 790014. ST. LOUIS. MO 63179"

Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., ("MERS"), is not located in

Missouri. It is located in Virginia. (Samons depo, p. 28). This sentence is intentionally

crafted for maximum ambiguity. Examples are: (1) the use of "or," between "residing" and

"located at," and (2) the use of "c/o P.O. BOX . . ." It is impossible to reside or be located

at a P.O. Box. Even ifthis is construed generously as a mailing address, which by its express

terms it is not, there is no such mailing designation as "c/o P.O. Box." It is common

knowledge that "c/o" or "care of" is used to designate a person who will process mail on the

addressee's behalf.

2) "for and in consideration of the sum of Sl.00 Dollar and other good and valuable
consideration"

In fact, no consideration whatsoever changed hands. Cheryl Samons, who testified

that she is the person with the most knowledge about this Assignment, also testified that

she had no knowledge of any consideration. (Samons depo, p. 26)

Page 1 of 5
3) "the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged"

Samons denied that she "acknowledged receipt of that one dollar and other good and

valuable consideration" by signing the Assignment, and could not show me "where, on [the

Assignment] any person signed" to acknowledge it. (Samons depo, p. 26). When asked if

this was an error, she responded, "I have no idea." (27).

4) "does hereby arant. bargain. sell. assian. transfer and set over unto"

The Assignment did not actually reflect any transfer of interest, and is simply a

fabrication made for the purpose offoreclosure litigation. Further, MERS, even ifconsidered

legitimate, could only act in a nominee capacity, and does not, based upon the language of

the Assignment, do so here. Further, the only interest transferred, according to Samons, was

"to be able to foreclose the mortgage." (Samons depo, p. 30).

5) "CITIMORTGAGE. INC. residina or located at PO. BOX 790014. ST. LOUIS.


MO 63179

This may actually be a P.O. Box used by an affiliate of Citimortgage, Inc.

Nonetheless, ifthe Assignment actually described a normal, commercial transaction between

two separate and distinct business concerns, one would expect the two parties involved to

have different addresses. In this instance the purported addresses of the assignor and

assignee are identical, with the exception of the use of"c/o" immediately prior to the alleged

assignor's address as described in item number 1, above.

Page 2 of 5
6) "Together with the note"

There is no provision in any of the loan documents, and there is no provision in the

MERS charter, which would allow MERS to assign the note. The mortgage contains MERS

provisions which purport to allow MERS to take certain actions relating to the mortgage as

"nominee."

7) Please disregard.

8) "In Witness Whereof'

Samons testified that she did not attest to the contents of the Assignment by

signing it. (Depo, p. 39-40).

9) "caused these presents to be siened by its proper corporate officers"

Samons did not act on the instruction of anyone at MERS in executing the

Assignment. David J.Stern, not MERS, "caused" the document to be signed. She is also not

a "proper corporate officer" of MERS, but instead has been given the title "assistant

secretary," solely to create the appearance of authority.

10) "its corporate seal to be hereto affixed"

No corporate seal is affixed.

11) "this___day"

Date is missing.

Page 3 of 5
12) "but effective as of the 19* day of February. 2008"

Samons testified that she did not know whether the 19* day ofFebruary, 2008 had any

significance. (P. 39). She testified when questioned by Mr. Ice that these "effective dates"

are the dates the foreclosure case file was received in Stern's office. The purpose of these

"effective dates" is to give the plaintiff in the foreclosure standing as of the time the

complaint was filed, as is required by law to avoid dismissal.

13) Sianature of Samons

This signature is almost identical to that of the notary/witness, Shannon Smith.

14) Sienature of Smith.

This signature is almost identical to the signature of Samons. When confronted by the

fact that Smith's signature on other assignments differs greatly from this one, Smith filed an

affidavit and testified, and Samons testified, that Smith had simply, on her own, one day

decided to change her signature. This was perjury, and since Smith testified that Mr. Tew

(Stern's counsel) gave her the affidavit to sign, it is likely this testimony was designed or at

least approved by Stern. Samons and Smith were revealed to be lying by, among other things, that

fact that Samons testiSed she and Smith discussed the alleged change of signature "this week," (p.

52) and Smith denied ever discussing with Samons her alleged decision to change her signature.

15) "PERSONALLY APPEARED BEFORE ME"

Tammie Kapusta testified generally that such was not the case. As to this Assignment, it is

obvious that Samons did not personally appear before any notary at the time she executed it. In fact,

it appears that Samons notarized it herself using Smith's stamp and name.

Page 4 of 5
16) "after first havina been duly authorized by MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION
SYSTEMS. lNC. to do so"

Samons did not receive authorization from anyone at MERS to sign this Assignment. (Depo,

p. 18). Even the document allegedly appointing certain employees of the Stern firm as MERS

assistant secretaries did not constitute "due authorization," as the MERS by-laws require approval

of such appointment by the MERS board of directors. Based upon all available documentation no

such approval took place.

17) Smith's sianature

Virtually identical to that of Samons.

1 MR. LEICHTLING: Object to form.

2 THE WITNESS: If the assignor was MERS on

22 MERS is a nominee for certain servicers as I

25 what I sign.

Boss Certified Realtime Reporting


954.4 67. 68 67
65
1 Q. So your authority to s1gn comes from MERS, or

2 it comes from Wells Fargo, in the case of Exhibit A?

3 A. These were given to me by MERS on behalf of

4 certain servicers that MERS has -­ whatever

5 partnership or relationship with it they have, but

6 it's not a blanket MERS anybody, anybody who's

7 servicing their loans. It's MERS, and then whoever's

8 servicing their loans. That's why we have separate

9 corporate resolutions.

10 Q, Okay. What was it your understanding of the

11 assignment of mortgage that's Exhibit A in this

12 deposition, what was that going to be used for?

13 A. It was going to be used for whatever purpose

14 was needed in the foreclosure.

outline immediately. I remember it, but it was a smaller
