Another Homeowner …

In Jefferson County, Texas, The Southeast Texas Record reports:

A woman has filed suit against a loan servicing agency and a mortgage company after she claims they have threatened to foreclose on her home. Lisa D. Perkins claims she owns a home [...] in Port Arthur. Defendant Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems currently owns the mortgage on the home and defendant Litton Loan Servicing is the mortgage servicer for Mortgage Electronic, according to the complaint filed Feb. 17 in Jefferson County District Court.

On Aug. 1, 2009, Perkins entered into a loan workout with Litton. Under the plot, Litton promised to modify Perkins’ mortgage as long as she complied with all terms of the plot, the suit states. Perkins has complied with all the plot’s terms, yet Litton still told her of its intent to foreclose on her home on March 2, the complaint says. “Plaintiff relied on these misrepresentations by Defendants to her detriment,” the suit states. By foreclosing on her home, Perkins claims Litton and Mortgage Electronic violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and breached their contract with her.(1)

(1) Reportedly, Perkins seeks an ex-parte temporary and permanent injunction from the court demanding that Litton and Mortgage Electronic refrain from foreclosing on her home, the suit states. In addition, she seeks actual, consequential and statutory costs, attorney’s fees, costs, pre- and post-judgment interest and other relief to which she may be entitled, the tale states.
