BANKUNITED,
non-successor in interest to bankrupt “BANKUNITED, FSB”,
purported plaintiff(s),
vs.
DISPOSED CASE NO.: 09-6016-CA
avoidance. “Defendants” admitted the UNKNOWN loss and/or destruction of the alleged
instruments, which could not be reestablished as a matter of law. See Schupler v.Eastern
Mortgage Co., 160 Fla. 72, 33 So.2d 586 (1948); Lovett v. Lovett, 93 Fla. 611, 112 So. 768
(1927).
2. In addition, defendants filed a counterclaim and/or cause of action that seeks affirmative
relief. The counterclaim and affirmative defenses were separate and distinct events.
3. Here, “plaintiff” “BankUnited” had failed to state a cause of action, and the court could not
grant [summary] judgment because the defendants have asserted legally sufficient
affirmative defenses that have not been rebutted. See Ton-Will Enterprises, Inc. v. T & J
4. Here, “BankUnited” did not dispute that it failed to rebut defendants’ affirmative defenses.
5. Here, Defendants’ action/compulsory counterclaim for, e.g., damages for fraud and breach
1
6. Thus, this court erred by ignoring defendants’ affirmative defenses and denying
defendants’ motion to dismiss during an illegal “02/22/2011 hearing” which had been
cancelled.
7. It is well established that fraud and misrepresentation are valid affirmative defenses in a
foreclosure action. See Lake Regis Hotel Co. v. Gollick, 110 Fla. 324, 149 So. 204 (1933)
(misrepresentation). Fraud is also a legal action for damages that can be raised as a
counterclaim. See Spring v. Ronel Refining, Inc., 421 So.2d 46 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982).

So.2d 350 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990). Fraud claims are compulsory counterclaims for purposes of
9. Here without any rational and legal explanation/justification, the Court has been speeding
from the 08/12/2010 disposition to “trial” to favor the bank at defendant homeowners’
10. To grant any judgment of foreclosure in favor of “BankUnited”, the Court would have to
find, among other things, that said bank owned the lost/destroyed mortgage/note and had
11. However here, “BankUnited” had asserted the UNKNOWN loss and/or destruction of the
purported instruments in its complaint. Furthermore, the evidence on file had conclusively
proven non-performance of said conditions. See generally 37 Fla. Jur. 2d Mortgages and
2
12. If arbitrarily and capriciously, after the 08/12/2010 disposition, the foreclosure action
were to proceed to judgment in favor of “BankUnited”, then a jury would be bound by these
findings of fact, which facts are inextricably interwoven with the issues presented by the
defendants’ affirmative defenses and counterclaims. Thus, to allow the foreclosure action
to proceed before the petitioners' legal counterclaims would deny them their fundamental
a jury trial on issues which are sufficiently similar or related to the issues made by the
previously disposed foreclosure claim that a determination by the first fact finder would
necessarily bind the latter one. Therefore, the issues may not be tried non-jury by the court
to trial by jury.
14. Here, the issues and/or affirmative claims involved in the compulsory counterclaim and/or
fraud claim were sufficiently similar to the issues in the foreclosure action stated in the
complaint to require a jury trial of the claim at law before the equitable claims could
possibly be reached. Only after a jury verdict on the common law issues could the trial
15. Here, the rule is that even where a complaint lies solely in equity, the filing of a compulsory
counterclaim seeking remedies at law entitles the counterclaimant(s) to a jury trial of the
legal issues. See Widera v. Fla. Power Corp., 373 So. 2d 714 (Fla. 2d DCA 1979); Sarasota-
Manatee Airport Auth. v. Alderman, 238 So. 2d 678 (Fla. 2d DCA 1970).

16. “Defendants” were entitled to a jury trial on issues raised in their compulsory counterclaim
that are common to the previously disposed foreclosure claim. See Hightower v.
17. This court cannot determine the factual issues of fraud and misrepresentation without
18. Thus, the Court must first resolve the affirmative claims and defenses of fraud and
19. Here after the capricious removal of the 08/12/2010 disposition record, the prejudice is
especially predictable and the legal issues must be tried by jury. The defendants demanded
20. The defendants in this disposed wrongful mortgage foreclosure action appealed the order(s)
21. In this disposed action, and in the absence of any re-opening, this court improperly handled
disputed factual issues raised in the affirmative defenses and compulsory counterclaim
22. Here, it would be error to proceed with the previously disposed wrongful foreclosure action
23. This court did not have the discretion to deny the demanded jury trial on these factual issues
24. Section 673.4071, Alteration, Florida Statutes (2010), states in pertinent part:
(1)The term “alteration” means:
4
(a)An unauthorized change in an instrument which change purports to modify in any
respect the obligation of a party; or
(b)An unauthorized addition of words or numbers or other change to an incomplete
instrument which addition or change relates to the obligation of a party.
(2)Except as provided in subsection (3), an alteration fraudulently made discharges a
party whose obligation is affected by the alteration unless that party assents or is
precluded from asserting the alteration. No other alteration discharges a party, and the
instrument may be enforced according to its original terms.
(3)A payor bank or drawee paying a fraudulently altered instrument or a person taking
it for value, in good faith and without notice of the alteration, may enforce rights with
respect to the instrument according to its original terms or, in the case of an incomplete
instrument altered by unauthorized completion, according to its terms as completed.
DEFENDANT COUNTERCLAIMANTS DEMANDED JURY TRIAL
26. Defendants are entitled to trial by jury on, e.g., Count I of Plaintiff’s complaint
27. Here, defendants have a fundamental right to jury trial in Florida’s State Courts.
28. The Florida Constitution expressly provides for the right to trial by jury. Article I, Section
The right of trial by jury shall be secure to all and remain inviolate. The qualifications
and the number of jurors, not fewer than six, shall be fixed by law.
29. Art. I, § 22, Fla. Const. Similarly, the Seventh Amendment of the United States Constitution
provides:
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars,
the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be
otherwise reexamined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of
the common law.
30. Florida courts have consistently highlighted the importance of the right to a trial by jury.
31. "Questions as to the right to a jury trial should be resolved, if at all possible, in favor of the
party seeking the jury trial, for that right is fundamentally guaranteed by the U.S. and
5
Florida Constitutions." Hollywood, Inc. v. City of Hollywood, 321 So. 2d 65, 71 (Fla. 1975);
see also Hansard Constr. Corp. v. Rite Aid of Fla., Inc., 783 So. 2d 307, 308 (Fla. 4th DCA
2000) ("Questions regarding the right to a jury trial should be resolved in favor of a jury
trial…") (citing King Mountain Condo Ass'n v. Gundlach, 425 So. 2d 569 (Fla. 4th DCA
1982)).
32. When a plaintiff brings a count “in law and in equity” to re-establish a note and/or for
deficiency judgment against the defendants, defendants have a right to a jury trial.
33. A complaint to re-establish a lost note and to have a personal decree against the defendant(s)
for the amount of debt to be evidenced by the re-established note is without equity, because
the lost instruments may be established by secondary evidence at law, and defendants are
entitled to a jury trial upon the alleged lost instruments. See Staiger v. Greb, App. 3 Dist.,
34. Because here, there is no dispute that plaintiff seeks to re-establish lost instruments and to
have a “deficiency judgment” against the defendants, the defendants are emtitled to demand
a jury trial.
35. Hereby, “defendants” “respond” to the unlawful and unauthorized “02/22/2011 hearing”
before retired “rocket docket” Judge Daniel R. Monaco who is in the pocket of the bank(s).
36. On 08/12/2010, and after defendants’ Motions to Dismiss had been filed, this wrongful
37. This Court knew that “BankUnited” did not establish its entitlement to foreclose the
6
38. After said 2010 disposition, the action was never reopened.
39. The exhibits to “BankUnited's” complaint conflicted with its [false] allegations concerning
standing, and said exhibits did not show that “BankUnited” has standing to foreclose the
alleged lost/destroyed mortgage/note or was entitled to the illegal 02/22/2011 hearing and
any “trial”.
40. Here, the plain meaning of the exhibits controlled, evidenced lack of standing, and was the
basis for a motion to dismiss. Blue Supply Corp. v. Novos Electro Mech., Inc., 990 So. 2d
1157, 1159 (Fla. 3d DCA 2008); Harry Pepper & Assocs., Inc. v. Lasseter, 247 So. 2d 736,
41. The “trial” wrongfully “set” by temporary Judge Monaco and “BankUnited’s” motion for
summary judgment and were to be denied based on principles of collateral estoppel and res
foreclosure action.
42. On 02/22/2011, retired “rocket docket” Judge Monaco had no authority to deny defendants’
Motion to Dismiss.
43. The “02/21/2011 memorandum from clerk to file regarding correction of the disposition
record to reflect the case as pending” was unauthorized and lacked any legal justification.
44. Here, the action had been disposed by “Disposition Judge” H. D. Hayes (disposition was
reached by said Judge in a case that was not dismissed and in which no trial has been held;
Category (J). The Clerk and Daniel R. Monaco had no authority to overturn the 08/12/2010
judicial disposition.

FRAUD ON THE COURT ON THE RECORD
45. After the 08/12/2010 disposition, “BankUnited” “filed” the “original note” which did not
46. “BankUnited” also did not attach an assignment or any other evidence to establish that it had
48. Furthermore, “BankUnited” did not file any genuine supporting affidavits or deposition
testimony to establish that it owns and holds the alleged lost/destroyed note and mortgage
49. Accordingly, the documents before this court and retired “robo” Judge Monaco at the
22/02/2011 unauthorized and cancelled hearing did not establish “BankUnited’s” standing
to foreclose the destroyed/lost note and mortgage, Thus, at this point, “BankUnited” was not
50. Defendants did not execute and deliver an authentic promissory note and mortgage to
“BankUnited”.
52. Here, neither any note nor mortgage were assigned and delivered to “BankUnited”.
53. Here there was no delivery of any written assignment of any instrument to “BankUnited”.
54. As witnessed and/or notarized, the alleged destroyed/lost “loan modification agreement”
was not signed and executed by “defendant” Walter Prescott and therefore unenforceable
8
55. Even though said “modification agreement” was not legally binding, “BankUnited”
“The interest rate required by this section 1 (7.625%) is the rate I will pay both before
and after any default described in the note.”
Here, the October 2010 “Affidavit as to amounts due and owing” fraudulently stated a
56. The “modified” mortgage was never recorded, and there was no evidence of taxes paid,
57. Purported “plaintiff” “BankUnited” does not own and hold any genuine note and mortgage.
58. “BankUnited” failed its burden to affirmatively establish holder in due course status
pursuant to Florida law and Seinfeld v. Commercial Bank & Trust Co., 405 So.2d 1039-
59. Here, “BankUnited” even pleaded inability to establish holder in due course status because
60. After the pleaded UNKNOWN destruction and loss of the purported note and mortgage
pursuant to paragraph 6 of the complaint, no legal and factual questions were and could
“6. Said promissory note and mortgage have been lost or destroyed and are not in the
custody or control of BankUnited, and the time and manner of the loss or destruction
is UNKNOWN.”
61. Here, there was no evidence as to WHO possessed the note WHEN it was lost/destroyed.
62. Here, the undisputed evidence was that “BankUnited, FSB” did not have possession of the
alleged destroyed/lost instruments, and thus, could not enforce the note under section
9
not enforce the lost instruments under section 673.3091, it had no power of enforcement
63. [Were this Court to allow “BankUnited” to enforce the alleged lost instruments, because
some unidentified person further back in the chain may have possessed the note, it would
64. The alleged mortgage copy did not contain a copy of the alleged executed note.
65. “BankUnited” fraudulently prayed for reestablishment, no order reestablishing the lost
instruments was entered, and the wrongful action was disposed on 08/12/2010.
66. As a matter of law, reestablishment of the note was impossible under Ch. 673, Florida
67. “BankUnited” is not in possession of the purported note and mortgage and not entitled to
enforce them.
68. “BankUnited” did not know WHO destroyed and/or lost the instruments WHEN and
HOW.
69. “BankUnited” which is wrongfully seeking to enforce the alleged note and mortgage was
not entitled to enforce the alleged instruments WHEN the UNKNOWN loss and/or
70. “BankUnited” did not acquire ownership of the instruments from anyone who was entitled to
enforce the alleged instruments WHEN the UNKNOWN loss and/or destruction of the
72. Here, there had been seizure and transfer which prohibited re-establishment.
10
73. “BankUnited” never produced nor re-established any authentic note and/or mortgage as
74. The mortgage that was used to establish the terms of the allegedly lost note and mortgage
was controverted and challenged as to authenticity and alteration of its original terms.
75. This Court knew that “BankUnited’s” facially fraudulent affidavits were sham.
76. A person seeking enforcement of an instrument under UCC § 3-309(a)(b) must prove the
terms of the instrument and the person’s right to enforce the instrument.
77. “BankUnited” had to, but failed, to prove the terms of the alleged instruments and the
78. Here, “BankUnited” failed to prove any terms, and the terms of the alleged obligation and/or
79. Here, Walter Prescott neither executed the purported note nor “loan modification agreement”.
80. This Court may not enter judgment in favor of “BankUnited”, because the Court knew that
the defendants are not adequately protected against loss and “BankUnited’s” fraud on the
a. Controverted by the record evidence, “BankUnited” fraudulently stated under oath that
said disposed wrongful action was “uncontested” and allegedly devoid of genuine issues
of material fact. See, e.g., “Affidavit of Plaintiff’s Counsel as to attorney’s fees and costs”.
b. The “Albertelli Law” foreclosure mill employed unlawful “robo-signers” and “robo-
signing” schemes.
c. Barbie Fernandez fraudulently stated under oath, e.g., that BankUnited is the owner or
servicer for the owner of the lost/destroyed and non-reestablished instruments. See
“Affidavit as to amounts due and owing”;
d. Ashley Simon, Esq., stated under oath, e.g., that she had “not reviewed the actual file in
this case”. See “Affidavit as to reasonable attorneys fees”.
81. On the clear evidence presented and before this Court, “plaintiff” “BankUnited” had no
standing and no real interest, and this previously disposed wrongful foreclosure action
cannot be tried and/or adjudged under the Rules and Florida Statutes.
11
82. Defendants did not default under the destroyed and/or lost note and mortgage, and no
83. Plaintiff bank failed to assert any chain of title and/or assignment of the destroyed/lost note
and mortgage.
84. On or around 07/09/2009, Alfred Camner, Esq., the troubled founder of bankrupt and seized
“BankUnited, FSB”, had alleged unknown loss and/or destruction of a purported note and/or
mortgage.
85. Here because Alfred Camner was the bankrupt bank’s founder, it was as if “BankUnited,
86. Thereafter, Alfred Camner, Esq., Serena Kay Paskewicz, Esq., and/or the Camner Lipsitz Law
MARY DOE, file their “response(s)”, affirmative defenses and claim for attorney’s fees and
88. Walter Prescott was not the maker of any alleged promissory note dated February 15, 2006, or
any other promissory note, as evidenced by the exhibits attached to the complaint.
89. Walter Prescott was not the maker of any “loan modification agreement” as evidenced by the
90. The purported “plaintiff” has not alleged facts sufficient to demonstrate that it invoked and/or
could have possibly invoked the jurisdiction of this court. Here, plaintiff did not satisfy and
could not have possibly satisfied the required conditions precedent as evidenced by the file.
Here, the falsely alleged “promissory note and mortgage have been lost or destroyed and are
12
not in the custody or control of ‘BankUnited’, and the time and manner of the loss or
destruction is unknown.”
92. Paragraph 2 is denied. Here under paragraph 6, “said [alleged] promissory note and mortgage
have been lost or destroyed and are not in the custody or control of ‘BankUnited’, and the
time and manner of the loss or destruction is unknown.” Furthermore, said alleged note
and/or mortgage could not have possibly been re-established pursuant to Ch. 673, Florida
Statutes (2010), or any other law, and therefore, “BankUnited” had no standing and right to
93. Here, no “default” has and/or could have possibly occurred, and no contractual obligation
existed.
94. Paragraph 3 is denied. Here, “BankUnited” was never entitled to any action and/or
97. Paragraph 6 is admitted and “said [purported] promissory note and mortgage have been lost
or destroyed and are not in the custody or control of ‘BankUnited’, and the time and
manner of the loss or destruction is unknown.” Furthermore, said alleged note and/or
mortgage could not have possibly been re-established pursuant to Ch. 673, Florida Statutes
(2010), or any other law, and therefore, “BankUnited” had no standing and right to
13
100. Paragraph 9 is denied. “BankUnited” is not any “successor in interest to” “BankUnited,
101.FSB”.
Paragraph 10 is denied. Here, “BankUnited” could not enforce and/or reestablish any note,
and pursuant to paragraph 6, the alleged “promissory note and mortgage have been lost or
destroyed and are not in the custody or control of ‘BankUnited’, and the time and manner
105. Here, paragraph 14 was vague and ambiguous as there were two “paragraph 14”.
106. Paragraph 14 is denied. None of the defendants owe(s) any fees to “BankUnited” in the
record absence of any note in evidence. Here, “BankUnited” owes fees to the defendants.
Here, there had been a disposed wrongful foreclosure action, which was facially frivolous
and insufficient.
107. Paragraph 15 is denied. Here, pursuant to paragraph 6 (Count I), the alleged “promissory
note and mortgage have been lost or destroyed and are not in the custody or control of
‘BankUnited’, and the time and manner of the loss or destruction is unknown.”
108. Paragraph 16 is denied. Here under Paragraph 6, “said [purported] promissory note and
mortgage have been lost or destroyed and are not in the custody or control of ‘BankUnited’,
and the time and manner of the loss or destruction is unknown.” Furthermore, said alleged
note and/or mortgage could not have possibly been re-established pursuant to Ch. 673,
Florida Statutes (2010), or any other law, and therefore, “BankUnited” had no standing and
14
DISPOSED CASE WAS NEVER AT ISSUE -TRIAL WOULD VIOLATE DUE PROCESS
109. Pursuant to Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.440, this action was not even at issue and could not possibly
be set for trial. Here, “defendants” were entitled to dismissal and the hearing of their
motions to dismiss. Here, this action had been disposed on 08/12/2010 and was not ready to
be set for trial. Retired “robo” Judge Monaco has been in the pocket of the bank(s), and the
110. Any order setting this disposed case for “trial” would have to be sent to the defendants
111. Defendants assert the following: (1) that they did not receive any order; and/or (2) that
without having received an order in an envelope mailed by this Court, it created doubt as to
the order's authenticity; and/or (3) that the unauthorized “trial” would commence less than
112. Apparently here, “robo” Judge Monaco seeks to deprive the defendants of due process.
113. Strict compliance with Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.440 is required and failure to
do so is reversible error. Ramos v. Menks, 509 So. 2d 1123 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986); Bennett v.
Continental Chemicals, Inc., 492 So. 2d 724 (Fla. 1st DCA 1984).
114. Defendants have had a due process entitlement to notice and an opportunity to be heard
pursuant to Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.440. Bowman v. Kingsland Development, Inc.,
115. Here, “defendants’” fundamental due process rights are being violated by the defective
116. Jennifer Franklin-Prescott owns the property at 25 6th Street North, Naples, Florida 34102.
15
117. Under Rule 1.420(f), Fla. R. Civ. P. (2010), the improper and unauthorized lis pendens
118. Pursuant to § 48.23(2), Fla. Stat. (2010), the notice of lis pendens became invalid on
07/10/2010.
119. Here, the instruments were missing and the lis pendens was unjustified under Florida
Communities Hutchinson Island v. Arabia, 452 So.2d 1131, 1132 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984).
120. Here, the null and void lis pendens placed a non-existent cloud on the title. See Andre
Pirio Assocs. v. Parkmount Properties, Inc., N.V., 453 So.2d 1184, 1186 (Fla. 2d DCA
1984).
121. In this disposed action, the purported “plaintiff” frivolously sought to re-establish the
122. Franklin-Prescott had filed her answer(s) and motions to dismiss and proven plaintiff’s
123. The record evidence established that plaintiff could not possibly re-establish the note and
that no authentic instruments could possibly be proven under the Evidence Code.
125. Purported plaintiff “BankUnited” is not any note owner/holder, had no standing, and could
not possibly declared any amounts due under a lost, destroyed, and/or non-reestablished note.
126. Here, the record did not conclusively establish that “BankUnited” is a holder in due
course of any negotiable instrument. “BankUnited” did not raise any law and/or doctrine
under which “BankUnited” did and/or could have possibly become a note owner and/or
16
127. Paragraph 20 is denied.
131. The purported lost mortgage lien was unenforceable due to the deprivation of the
original instrument(s). Here, “BankUnited” was unable to enforce any mortgage lien,
132. “BankUnited” filed the wrongful suit after the May 2009 seizure of defunct
“BankUnited, FSB”.
133. After bankrupt “BankUnited, FSB” was seized, its troubled founder, Alfred Camner,
134. As founder of defunct “BankUnited, FSB”, Alfred Camner knew and concealed that the
“BankUnited”.
135. Here, time and manner of the loss were UNKNOWN pursuant to the 07/09/2009
complaint.
136. Here, “BankUnited” was not any assignee and did not hold title in the purported
lost/destroyed instruments.
137. Here, the record had conclusively evidenced the lack of any chain of title.
138. “BankUnited” was not any real party in interest, did not hold legal title to the
destroyed/missing mortgage and note, and was not the proper party to file suit to foreclose
17
139. Here, there was no effective assignment from “BankUnited, FSB” to “BankUnited” or any
legal justification why and how “BankUnited” could possibly be entitled to enforce the lost
instruments.
140. The destroyed/lost instruments were unenforceable as a matter of law. See, e.g., section
141. Here, retired Monaco and the Court knew that “BankUnited” failed to meet, and could not
possibly have met, the Uniform Commercial Code provisions pertaining to lost and/or
possibly occur. See Article 3, U.C.C.; Ch. 673, Florida Statutes (2010).
142. The endorsement in blank was unsigned and unauthenticated, creating a genuine issue
of material fact as to whether “BankUnited” was the lawful owner and holder of the
Jacques, 28 So. 3d 936 (Fla. 2d DCA 2010), there were no supporting affidavits or
deposition testimony in the record to establish that “BankUnited” validly owns and holds the
of purchase of the alleged debt nor any other evidence of an effective transfer. Therefore, the
143. This Court knew of binding precedent and that the Second District had confronted a
3d 936 (Fla. 2d DCA 2010), when the trial court had granted the alleged assignee U.S.
Bank's motion for summary judgment. [That court reversed because, inter alia, "[t]he
response to BAC's motion to dismiss did not constitute admissible evidence establishing U.S.
18
Bank's standing to foreclose the note and mortgage." Id. at 939. Said Appellate Court
in BAC Funding Consortium, properly noted that U.S. Bank was "required to prove that it
144. This Court knew that “BankUnited” cannot foreclose on the note and mortgage, because
“plaintiff” is not in possession of the original note and did not reestablish the alleged
lost/destroyed instruments. See § 673.3091(1), Fla. Stat.; Dasma Invest., LLC v. Realty
Associates Fund III, L.P. 459 F. Supp. 2d 1294, 1302 (S.D. Fla. 2006).
145. Here, this Court knew that “BankUnited” had no standing and/or right to sue and/or
foreclose.
146. This Court knew that defendants had demanded indemnification of defendants for
147. So far, this Court did not require a bond pursuant to Lovingood v. Butler Construction
148. However in this disposed action, the bond was simply mandatory pursuant to Porter
Homes, Inc. v. Soda, 540 So.2d 195, 196 (Fla. 2d DCA 1989)(where a lis pendens is not
founded upon a lawsuit involving a recorded instrument, section 48.23(3) "requires the
posting of a bond."). See Machado v. Foreign Trade, Inc., 537 So.2d 607, 607 n.1 (Fla. 3d
DCA 1988); Munilla v. Espinosa, 533 So.2d 895 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988).
149. Here, retired “robo” Judge Monaco knew and/or concealed that a plaintiff must be the
owner/holder of the instrument(s) as of the date of filing suit pursuant to Jeff-Ray Corp. v.
Jacobsen, 566 So. 2d 885 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990); WM Specialty Mortgage, LLC v. Salomon,
19
150. Here as of “07/09/2009”, the date of filing suit, “BankUnited” was not any holder and/or
151. “BankUnited” was not a holder of the lost/destroyed note at the time it wrongfully filed
suit (07/09/2009) or any time thereafter, was not entitled to enforce and/or reestablish the
alleged lost instruments, and no exception to this requirement was ever asserted. See Am.
Bank of the S. v. Rothenberg, 598 So. 2d 289, 291 (Fla. 5th DCA 1992) (finding that it is
152. Here, “BankUnited” had neither standing nor any real interest and could not have
153. Here, retired Judge Monaco and “BankUnited” had actual knowledge of the fraud and
lack of good faith prior to the falsely alleged transfer from “BankUnited, FSB” to
“BankUnited”, which precluded “BankUnited” from claiming holder in due course status.
154. Here, temporary Judge Monaco knew and/or concealed that Prescott had controverted
the authenticity of the purported note amd that “defendant” Walter Prescott had not executed

156. The notorious 20th Judicial Circuit has heard up to 1,000 foreclosure cases per day.
Assuming an 8-hour day, this equated to less than 30 seconds per case, which established
organized bias against defendants and homeowners.
157. The law prohibits “rocket dockets” for speed and errors at the expense of justice in favor
of banks and lenders.
158. Here, the Docket showed “Judge Hugh D. Hayes” and the lack of any “Reopen Reason”

certificate, return or attestation may be received as legal proof; or a charter, deed,

for money or other property, or an acceptance of a bill of exchange or promissory
note for the payment of money, or any receipt for money, goods or other property, or
any passage ticket, pass or other evidence of transportation issued by a common

entitlement to enforce the instrument WHEN the loss of possession occurred, or has directly
or indirectly acquired ownership of the instrument from a person who was entitled to enforce
the instrument WHEN loss of possession occurred. Further, he/she must prove the loss of
possession was not the result of a transfer by the person or a lawful seizure; and the person
22
cannot reasonably obtain possession of the instrument because the instrument was destroyed,
person or a person that cannot be found or is not amenable to service of process. 673.3091
163. Here, “defendants” had denied that “BankUnited” has ever had possession of the alleged
note and/or mortgage and/or that “plaintiff” was ever entitled to enforce the instruments the
loss and destruction of which were UNKNOWN. “Plaintiff” could not establish foundation
to show possession of the note WHEN the loss of possession occurred. Plaintiff could not
establish that plaintiff lost possession of the note after it was transferred to the “plaintiff” and
that it could not reasonably obtain possession thereof. Absent such proof in this disposed
action, plaintiff had been required by Florida law to provide the original note and mortgage.
Having failed to provide the original note and mortgage at the time of filing, “plaintiff”
164. Here, the “plaintiff” could not prove the terms of the instrument and the plaintiff bank’s
right to enforce the alleged instrument. The court may not enter judgment in favor of the
person seeking enforcement unless it finds that the person required to pay the instrument is
adequately protected against loss that might occur by reason of a claim by another person to
enforce the instrument. Fla. Stat. 673.3091(2). In this disposed action, defendants
specifically have been denying all necessary terms of the note are provided in the attached
mortgage/note. Clearly, since the note has been missing, necessary endorsements on the note
are missing; as such, essential terms and conditions precedent were not provided by the
23
165. Prescott had asserted and proven (another affirmative defense) that the plaintiff(s) had
failed to follow Florida law of negotiable instruments and including, e.g., obtaining
the purported non-authentic promissory note and mortgage deceptively submitted to this
Court as alleged debt evidence. As such, the plaintiff came to this court with unclean hands.
166. Defendants’ motion to recuse retired Judge D. R. Monaco was legally sufficient,
because the facts alleged demonstrate that the moving party has a well-grounded fear that
defendants will not receive a fair trial at the hands of said judge. Cave v. State, 660 So. 2d
167. After said unlawful “02/22/2011 hearing”, Prescott fears that Monaco may further
extend his prima facie bias and again deprive her of due process and fundamental rights to
168. Because here no reasonable person, juror or judge could possibly explain the record
errors, contradictions, and arbitrary acts in this disposed case, Franklin-Prescott cannot
possibly trust Judge Monaco, said Circuit, and said “rocket docket” sham proceedings.
169. Here, a federal depository institution regulatory agency [F.D.I.C.] was confronted with a
purported lost agreement and/or instruments not documented in the institution's records.
170. No agreement/instruments between a borrower and a bank, which does not plainly appear
on the face of an obligation or in the bank's official records is enforceable against the Federal
24
171. It makes no difference whether the issue is presented in the form of a claim or of a
defense; as long as the claim or defense is based upon an alleged agreement the terms of
which are not contained within the four corners of the written obligation or found in the
official records of the financial institution, the claim or defense is barred. See, e.g., Langley
v. FDIC, 484 U.S. 86, 91-92, 108 S. Ct. 396, 401, 98 L. Ed. 2d 340, 347 (1987).
172. Said rule was codified by the Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1950, § 13(e), 64 Stat.
173. Here, the Court was obligated to determine and/or consider the lack of subject matter
3. An Order declaring rogue “robo” Judge Monaco’s lack of jurisdiction to overturn and/or
Appeal;
4. An Order properly setting this Motion to Dismiss for hearing so that Franklin-Prescott can
6. An Order declaring the “trial set” during said unlawful and cancelled “02/22/10 hearing” in
the excused absence of Franklin-Prescott unlawful for lack of due process and because
“BankUnited” had never been entitled to any action and trial for lack of standing and note in
25
7. An Order declaring the “correction of the disposition record” unlawful and prejudicial at
Franklin-Prescott’s expense;
8. An Order enjoining retired robo Judge Monaco from any further deliberate deprivations
9. An Order taking judicial notice of said binding precedent (BAC Funding) in support of the
10. An Order determining that the invalid lis pendens was not founded upon a duly recorded
authentic instrument therefore requiring a bond to prevent further irreparable harm following
11. An Order declaring the purported “plaintiff” in this disposed action without any authority to
sue, foreclose, and/or demand any payment from Jennifer Franklin Prescott;
12. An Order declaring the cancelled “02/22/2011 hearing” unauthorized in this disposed
action;
13. An Order declaring “BankUnited’s” prima facie sham “motion(s)” and “affidavits”
15. An Order taking judicial notice of the prima facie unenforceability of the unrecorded,
16. An Order declaring the purported “plaintiff” to be in violation of Fed.R.Civ.P. 1.510 in this
26
17. An Order declaring the purported 2009 “lis pendens” invalid on its face and taking judicial
notice of the nullity of the lis pendens and unenforceable mortgage and/or note;
18. An Order declaring said affidavits “hearsay” and lacking any legal and/or factual basis in
19. An Order taking judicial notice of the lack of any genuine “note”, “plaintiff’s” proven fraud
on the Court, opposition, opposition evidence, and case law as to this disposed case;
20. An Order prohibiting Counsel and/or Jason M. Tharokh, Esq., who did not file any notice
Respectfully,
/s/Jennifer Franklin-Prescott, BankUnited foreclosure fraud victim
/s/Walter Prescott, foreclosure fraud victim
