AG attempts to stop foreclosures

The Texas Attorney General's office called for a halt on all foreclosures today amid widespread scrutiny over the way foreclosures are processed nationwide.

Notices to suspend foreclosures were sent to 27 loan servicers doing business in Texas,
including Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The office would not release the list of companies that received notices.

The state office also called for a halt on the sales of properties previously foreclosed upon and all evictions of people living in previously foreclosed upon properties.

The action is being taken "in an effort to determine the full harm Texas homeowners may have suffered or could suffer as a result of these business practices," including improperly signing documents related to the foreclosure process, according to a statement late today by Jerry Strickland, a spokesman for Attorney General Greg Abbott.

guess ol' Greg is quaking in his boots. If he were that far ahead of Barbara Radnofsky (Dem-Awesome!), he wouldn't lift a finger to stop foreclosures in Texas.

5. Amen, dg!

"he wouldn't lift a finger to stop foreclosures in Texas".

And I still don't think he's doing it for the "good people of Texas". That pond scum is just trying to make sure he's not caught in the voters' cross-hairs on election day.
