OF FLA. ' MIAMI UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA---PALM BEACH Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, Plaintiff, v. Case No. ------SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, And all JOHN & JANE DOES 1-50 Defendants. TRIAL-by-JURY DEMANDED under Rules 38-39, FRCP and The 7 th Amendment COMPLAINT FOR QUIET TITLE AND BREACH OF CONTRACT 1. Comes now the Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, with this her Original Complaint For Quiet Title, complaining for declaratory judgment in respect of the same, and demanding damages arising from fraudulent conveyance and slander of title to inflicted by SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., Jeffrey P. Lawson, and John & Jane Does 1-50 all relatin g to the Plaintiffs Homestead real estate located at the above-noted address at 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach County, Florida 33410. 2. Jurisdiction is conferred upon this court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 13 31 in that the claims alleged therein arise under the laws of the United States. 3. This court has supplemental jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1367 to hear and determine Plaintiffs state law claims, including but not limi ted to determination of status as holder in due course under Florida Statutes 673.0021-673.0081, 673.l011-673.l091, and 673.2021-673.2091, on the one hand, and equitable action for quiet title in Chancery Court pursuant to F

lorida Statutes 65.011-65.061. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 1 2 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 2 of 85 4. These state law claims constitute the foundation, in turn, for Pla intiffs federal claims in that all arise out of a common nucleus of related facts a nd form part of the same case or controversy under Article III of the United States Constitution. The execution, handling, and crediting of these negotiable instruments is inextricably intertwined with questions of payment and consume r credit and hence, all questions of legal and equitable claims to right , tile, and interest in the property, subject of this lawsuit and equitable action. 5. Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., is named as pnmary Defendant because that is the name of the bank claiming interest in Pl aintiffs property, despite having submitted claims in U.S Bankruptcy Court which definitively show that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC. is neither in privity with Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson on any contract (because of assignment) and is plainly NOT the holder in due course of the note which the P laintiff signed, and that this lack of privity and transfer of interest is appare nt from the face of the documents submitted in Bankruptcy Court because SUNTRUST Mortgage ENDORSED the note in blank and without recourse (See Exhibit A). 6. This endorsement indicates that Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., has "cashed" or fully negotiated the Plaintiffs note. In other words, SUNTRUST Mortgage, and or SUNTRUST BANK, have (since accepting the note from Plaintiff on or about May 23, 2003) transferred the Plaintiffs not e and been paid for that Note in full. 7. The holder in due course of the note, attached herein as Exhibit A, could literally be anyone in the world EXCEPT for the endorsing party SUNTRUST, pursuant to Florida common and statutory law, to wit Florida Statutes Chapter 673 ("Uniform Commercial Code: Negotiable Instruments): Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 2 3 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 3 of 85 673.1091. Payable to bearer or to order (1) A promise or order is "payable to bearer" ifit: (a) States that it is payable to bearer or to the order of bearer or otherwise indicates that the person in possession of the promise or order is entitled to payment; (b) Does not state a payee; or

(c) States that it is payable to or to the order of cash or otherwise indicates that it is not payable to an identified person. 8. If any debt is owing to any party, despite the lack of mutuality III consideration, with NO consideration whatsoever identified in the mortga ge contract (Exhibit B) as flowing from SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., to the Plaintiff, that debt is owing NOT to SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., but to the true holder in due course of Plaintif fs note, identified in this Original Complaint only as one of up to fifty "John o r Jane D " oes. 9. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., identifies "lender's address" listed as 901 Semmes Avenue, Richmond, Virginia 23224 on the May 23, 2003 Mortga ge contract, and further identifies itself as a "Virginia Corporation" on th e May 23, 2003 Promissory Note signed by Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia -Lawson and her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson. This note is the primary focus and subject of this lawsuit. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., operates in a number of states throughout the United States organized into different groups. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., appears, however, to be a subsidiary of and otherwise affiliated with SUNTRUST BANKS, INC., incorporated in the State of Georgia with its Principal Place of Business at 303 Peachtree Street, NE, Suit e 3600, in Atlanta, Georgia 30308.

Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC, SUNTRUST BANK, INC, and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 3 4 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 4 of 85 10. Under principles of respondeat supenor and/or fiduciary duty, SUNTRUST BANK, INC., as a national banking association, is liable for all the breaches of contract and torts (including actual or constructive fraud, intent ional or negligent misrepresentation) committed by its subsidiary SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC. 11. Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson filed a petition for Bankruptcy in t he United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida, Palm Beach Divison, because of her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson breached his with her, as well as his fiduciary duty to their daughter, Alexandra Ann o pay the mortgage, which he also signed (See Exhibit B). 12. Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson sues here in part because ida Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in which Jeffrey on filed dissolution proceedings in February 2005 steadfastly refuses to y of contract Lawson, t the Flor P. Laws hear an

Plaintiffs federal claims or to enforce Plaintiffs contract with her husband Je ffrey P. Lawson or his fiduciary duties to his wife and family. 13. Even in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court wherein Plaintiff was provided with a copy of her note, endorsed "without recourse" (thereby confirming SUNTRUST's transfer of the note), Plaintiff was informed that Bankruptcy Court could not compel Jeffrey P. Lawson to honor his obligations as a matt er of contract and fiduciary duty; Plaintiff accordingly had no recourse excep t to sue Jeffrey P. Lawson for ordinary breach of contract, in that he has not made a si ngle mortgage payment since January 1, 2009 and has, in effect, forced Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson into a continuing bankruptcy. 14. There is, accordingly, absolutely no subject matter overlapping as a mat ter of litigated fact between the present suit and the dissolution of mar riage Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 4 5 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 5 of 85 proceedings filed in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit Court in and for Pa lm Beach County, Florida (2005DROOI269XXXXNB); no judgments or collateral decisions concerning the property, subject of this lawsuit, have ever been made in any litigation between the parties to this lawsuit nor is there identity of the parties between this case and the aforementioned Domestic Relations case. 15. This Court has jurisdiction over the mortgage and note issues raised herein by Plaintiff under the federal Fair Debt Collections Act ("FDCA"), 15 U.S. C. 1601 et seq. ("TlLA"); Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. 226 et seq.; Federal Trade Commission Act ("FTC Act"), 1 5 U.S. C. 1691 et seq. (Equal Credit Opportunity, and above all RESPA, 12 U.S.C. 2601 et seq. 16. The Court accordingly has Federal question jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1331 over Plaintiff action for declaratory relief pursuant to 28 U.S. C. 2201-2202 and Rule 57 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. To effectuat e the declaratory judgments herein requested, injunctive relief is authorized by 28 U.S.C. 2202 and Rule 65 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 17. Plaintiff specifically seeks a declaratory judgment that (1) neithe r SUNTRUST MORTGAGE nor SUNTRUST BANK are holders in due course of Plaintiffs note, (2) neither SUNTRUST MORTGAGE nor SUNTRUST BANK are in continuing privity of contract with Plaintiff Kathy Ann Gar ciaLawson, because (3) SUNTRUST MORTGAGE and/or SUNTRUST BANK endorsed Plaintiffs Note without recourse (i.e. "cashed" this negotiable

instrument, or in the alternative "transferred Plaintiffs note to an unknown th ird party for value paid and received"), and (4) if there is any residual amount owing to the true holder in due course on Plaintiffs' note, it is owed no t by Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson but by her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson whose affidavit Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 5 6 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 6 of 85 of continuous marriage was a condition precedent and essential term of both the mortgage contract and the contract for title insurance agreed, made, an d signed on or about May 23, 2003. 18. Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson seeks final prohibitory injunctions to enjoin SUNTRUST MORTGAGE successors and assigns) and until they can and have proved urse of the Plaintiffs note, njunction against Jeffrey P. Lawson and SUNTRUST BANK (and their from further debt collection activities unless their legal and equitable status as holder-in-due co and Plaintiff further seeks a final mandatory i to compel him to pay the amounts due and owing since

January 1, 2009 under the note and mortgage agreement, if any, but no TRO is requested at the present time. 19. Plaintiff accordingly asserts causes of action against Defendants SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and SUNTRUST BANK, INC., predicated on, inter alia, apparent violations of and justifying relief pursuant to th e federal Fair Debt Collections Act ("FDCA"), 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq. ("TILA"); Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. 226 et seq.; Federal Trade Commission Act (" FTC Act"), 15 U.S.C. 1961 et seq., and RESPA 12 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.; but Plaintiff seeks damages for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contr act only against Jeffrey P. Lawson, his heirs, assigns and guarantors (one of his guar antors may be Delta Airlines, Inc., which for the time is only included as one potential "John Doe" Defendant). 20. Plaintiff also reserve their right to amend and to assert derivati ve claims under Florida Commercial and Consumer Protection Statutes, as well as state laws prohibiting Deceptive Trade Practices, among others. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 6 7 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 7 of 85 21. One problem appears to be that facially excellent and protective

Florida Statutes are being administered in the Florida Courts in such a way that the common law rights to limit collection and enforcement to "holders in due course" and other privileges inherent in the common law doctrine of "privity of contrac t" have been all but obliterated; again, the Florida Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit has repeatedly slammed the door in the face of Plaintiffs atte mpts to raise any Federal issues in that Court. 22. These principal (traditional common law and statutory) elements of contract law (privity of contract required to enforce obligation and "holder in due course") have always been a key requirement of the common law of contr acts, and this requirement has been expressly upheld by Florida Courts in t he past because it is enshrined, among other places, in Florida Statutes 673.3021. 23. Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson seeks a further declaratory judgmen t that this Court declare that neither SUNTRUST MORTGAGE nor SUNTRUST BANK are entitled to any enforcement of the Plaintiffs note Florida Statutes 673.3091 (b), which on its face does not permit the reestablishment of notes once TRANSFERRED, as SUNTRUST MORTGAGE by its endorsement has clearly transferred the Plaintiffs note in this case: 673.3091. Enforcement oflost, destroyed, or stolen instrument (1) A person not in possession of an instrument is entitled to enforce the instrument if: (a) The person seeking to enforce the instrument was entitled to enforce the instrument when 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; (b) The loss of possession was not the result of a transfer by the person or a lawful seizure; and Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 7 8 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 8 of 85 (c) The person cannot reasonably obtain possession of the instrument because the instrument was destroyed, its whereabouts cannot be determined, or it is in the wrongful possession of an unknown person or a person that cannot be found or is not amenable to service of process. (2) A person seeking enforcement of an instrument under subsection (1) must prove the terms of the instrument and the person's right to enforce the instrument. If that proof is made, s. 673.3081 applies to the case as if the person seeking enforcement had produced the 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. Adequate protection may be provided by any reasonable means. 24. Courts in Florida in cases such as that litigated by Jeffrey P. Lawson

against Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson in the state action still pending in t he Fifteenth Judicial Circuit Court in and for Palm Beach County, Florida under case number 2005DR-001269XXXXNB routinely gloss over and ignore the "holder in due course" and "privity of contract" doctrines as well as all oth er laws Federal laws designed for the protection of the individual unwillingly caught in the system, and this is another reason why Plaintiffs lawsuit and equitable ac tion herein stated are properly lodged in Federal rather than state court. 25. The effective abandonment of the common law by the executive and judicial branches did not come about as the result of overt democratically enac ted legislative modification of the law, nor pursuant to any official gover nmental policy of or for the public benefit, but to enable and enrich a favored group wh ich has profited from a non-governmental financial innovation of the late 1 970s-80s known as "securitization of debt", with securitized and bundled "debt" sold on the open market in complete disregard and, in fact, in flagrant viola tion of all Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 8 9 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 9 of 85 common law (and Uniform Commercial Code) principles of "holder in due course" or "privity of contract". 26. "Holder in due course" and "privity of contract" were key elements of common law jurisprudence specifically protected from interference by the state governments under Article I, 10, Cl. 1 of the United States Constitution, except where necessary to protect or advance a compelling governmental interest i n the state's interest of self-protection or emergency exercise of the police p ower. Cf., e.g., Allied Structural Steel Co. v. Spannaus, Attorney General Of Minnesota, et a1., 438 U.S. 234; 98 S.Ct. 2716; 57 L.Ed.2d 727 (1978). 27. Plaintiff reserve the right to amend and add additional causes of a ction to this complaint by regular amendment pursuant to Rule 15 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as may be necessary to bring all issues before the C ourt concerning the properties for which quiet title is sought in Florida. 28. Venue is proper in the Southern District of Florida in that the propert y at 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410 owned by the Plaint iff and subject to this Complaint is located in the Southern District of Florida. Furthermore, most if not all of the transactions and occurrences giving rise to

this dispute took place in Palm Beach County, Florida, within the territori al jurisdiction of the Southern District of Florida. COUNT I: DEClARE SUNTRUST IS NOT HOLDER IN DUE COURSE 29. Plaintiff realleges ~ ~ 1 - 2 8 and incorporates the same by reference. 30. The Plaintiffs note, dated May 23, 2003, was a refinancing of the 2000 purchase of 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410. At so me point (probably within 30-90 days) AFTER the closing and signing date bu t in any event a long time before the Plaintiffs filing of her Chapter 13 Petition for Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 9 10 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 10 of 85 Bankruptcy in 2008, this note was endorsed "without recourse" in blank and became a bearer instrument, "payable on demand" to parties whose ident ity is simply unknown at the present time (See Exhibit A). 31. WHEREFORE, as explained above, Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson seeks a declaratory judgment that neither SUNTRUST MORTGAGE nor SUNTRUST BANK are the true holder in due course of the original note which she signed, which SUNTRUST endorsed "in blank" and therefore converted into a "bearer instrument", "payable on demand" to an unknown and presently unascertainable party. 32. This court mayor may not be able, upon final trial, to determine who is the true holder in due course of Plaintiffs note, except to determine by declaratory judgment that the holder could literally be any natural or artificial person or entity in the world EXCEPT SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., which endorsed and therefore both explicitly and implicitly transferred the Plaintiffs Mortgage Note FOR VALUE and 33. THEREFORE, Plaintiff asks this Court to declare and adjudge that neither SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., nor SUNTRUST BANK, INC., are any longer (at the present time, if they ever were) entitled to collect even a dime from Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson or her husband Defendant Jeffrey P. Lawson and in fact the SUNTRUST entities OW and should be compelled by a mandatory junction, which is hereby requested and sought as part of the reli ef in this case, to refund Plaintiff 100% of all monies paid (including inte red) to SUNTRUST under the mistaken belief (fraudulently induced by the Defendants) that SUNTRUST was still holder in due course or otherwise in privity with the Plaintiff or her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010

10 11 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 11 of 85 COUNT II: CONTINUOUS MARRIAGE AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT AND ESSENTIAL COVENANT 34. Plaintiff realleges ~ ~ 1-33 and incorporates the same by reference. 35. Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, and Jeffrey P. Lawson, as husban d and wife executed many affidavits in support of their claim to title to the pr operty in question (a marital estate). 36. One of these documents was an Affidavit of Continuous Marriage (als o executed on May 23,2003 (Exhibit B). 37. The expressly stated purpose of this affidavit (on the face of the docum ent) was "to induce Cohen, Norris, Scherer, Weinberger, and Wolmer to issue a title insurance policy on the above described property." 38. The issuance of title insurance was required by the mortgage contract an d a condition precedent to the receipt and acceptance by SUNTRUST MORTGAGE of the Plaintiffs note. 39. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff seeks a declaratory judgment from this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2201-2202 to declare and adjudge that any attempt on the part of Jeffrey P. Lawson to terminate, "dissolve" or otherwise br each his contract of continuous marriage with her is simultaneously (1) a breach of the mortgage contract on his part, (2) a failure of a condition precedent to the issuance of title insurance, and (3) thereby a breach of the original mortgage contract justifying either equitable rescission or damages, for which J effrey P. Lawson damages in breach of contact is and ought to be held liable t o the full amount of loss and damages suffered by Plaintiff and/or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and/or SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., thereby indemnifying Plaintiff for any resulting loss whatsoever to the full amount of the value of the mortgage plus the subject property. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 11 12 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 12 of 85 COUNT III: DECLARATORY JUDGMENT RE: LOST NOTES 40. Plaintiff realleges ~ ~ 1 - 3 9 and incorporates the same by reference. 41. The slippery tale of the mysteriously lost or destroyed note, whi ch sometimes suddenly reappears, has already been repeated tens of thousand s of times all over Florida, is nothing but a cover for SECURITIES FRAUD AND VIOLATION OF THE FLORIDA STATUTES and is entitled to no more credibility than those offered by truant schoolboys involving dogs who

eat homework or great aunts who always die during finals or when term papers are due, but it is used successfully in perhaps 80-90% of all Florida Mo rtgage Foreclosures and accordingly in violation of the Uniform Commercial Code which leads all of these lying Mortgage company to proceed to Foreclose ill egally without right under law. 42. Plaintiff now asks this Court to open the shudders and let the light of day shine on this sham, this megalithic lie repeated ten million times wh ich has all but destroyed the US economy. 43. All promissors (including SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and SUNTRUST BANK, INC.) implicitly, if not explicitly, promise or affirm t hat they will follow the common law, as well as the statutory law, guara nteeing to each contracting party promissee to comport themselves by conduct in f ull compliance with all the guarantees and protections of common law, including but not limited to the doctrines of "holder in due course" and "privity of contract ." 44. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff seeks a declaratory judgment that the endorsements without recourse violate both Florida and United States Fe deral consumer and credit protection law as well as the banking and securit ies laws concerning the management and securitization of promissory notes as negotiabl e Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 12 13 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 13 of 85 instruments and as "money" pursuant to the definitions provided by Federal La w in 12 U.S.C. 18131 and 45. THEREFORE, Plaintiff asks this Court to declare that once mortgage note is endorsed by one party, it is no longer collectible or properly pa yable to that party, such that in this case SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, by its endorsement to the "bearer or demand" has nullified or voided its own claim to any right s under the note by transferring these rights to an unknown third party. 46. Upon final trial, after discovery, this Court should declare and adjudge th at Plaintiff is entitled to void or nullify both her note to SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and her contract. 47. Plaintiff asks that the Court declare and adjudge that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., has utterly failed to conform to the common strictures of contract in good faith and fair dealing. COUNT IV; FOURTH CAUSE OF ACTION is for RELIEF BY FORECLOSURE ACCOUNTING 48. Plaintiff realleges and incorporates by reference the allegations co ntained

in ~ ~ 1-47 of this Complaint as if the same were fully recopied and restated h erein below. 49. A controversy exists between Plaintiff and Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and SUNTRUST BANK, NC., with respect to the correct amount of money that is actually owed by Plaintiff to the Defendant, if any. 50. Many additional assessments, including charges for wind damage insurance were arbitrarily imposed on this mortgage contract without Plai ntiffs actual and effective or informed consent. 51. Defendant has consistently refused to provide an accurate accountin g of the HANDLING OF THE NOTE or to allow Plaintiffs representatives to audit Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 13 14 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 14 of 85 defendant books and records as they relate to accounting of the transfer and sale of the note "in blank" so clearly identified in Exhibit A, nor how this endorse ment and transfer somehow left SUNTRUST MORTGAGE as the holder in due course or even as AGENT for the holder in due course. 52. Plaintiff demands that any claim for trusteeship or agency on behalf of an y third-party holder in due course must be verified by clear and convin cing evidence including properly executed trust instruments or documents appointing or creating lawful agency between SUNTRUST and any other party or parties. 53. Plaintiff allege that accounting should include a submission of the Origina l Note that the Defendants should possess as "holders in due course" to a for ensic analysis and full actuarial statement regarding EACH transaction relating t o the ownership, interest, and securitization of the note. 54. Plaintiff contest that without the privity of contract or original note the sum will forever and indefinitely be disputed because without said note Plaintiff believe that the Defendants have no right to collections of any kind. 55. As a result the correct amount of money due and owing from Plainti ff to Defendants remains in dispute and cannot be determined without an accounting and a submission of evidence. 56. Therefore Plaintiff require that Defendants make available its books and records (only as they relate to Plaintiff alleged loans) in order that P laintiff may have a qualified representative audit the books, records, federal reserv e collateral and borrower in custody agreements to determine the accounting of the financia l transaction(s) made regarding the note or the securitization of said note.

15 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 15 of 85 COUNT V: UNFAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES & PREDATORY LENDING 57. Plaintiff realleges paragraphs 1-56 and incorporates all material allegat ions and legal contentions as if fully set forth and recopied herein. 58. Plaintiff alleges that the Defendants and each of them, III taking the actions aforementioned, have violated provisions of Florida Statutes, as well as the Federal Fair Debt Collections Act, 15 U.S.C., Title 41, Subchapter V. 1692 et seq, and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), 12 U.S.C. 2601 2617. 59. In the alternative to the allegations stated in the counts above, Plaintiffs allege that Defendants have violated Florida state securities laws by fraudulent sales of previously sold and securitized (e.g., within the meaning of Florida Statutes, sold and transferred) notes if in fact they are not selling them, merely transferring the collection rights under the servicing agreement. 60. A judicial determination is appropriate to determine the plaintiffs rights and duties with regards to May 23, 2003 refinancing of Plaintiff s ori ginal loan and/or her current obligation for the repayment of any valid debt. 61. A declaration of rights and duties of the parties by the court is necess ary to determine the actual status and validity of the loan and any rights, duties, and/or obligations to be enforced. 62. Plaintiff asks this court, by entry of declaratory judgment, to eff ect the cancellation of the mortgage documents and deeds of trust for cause ide ntified herein and specifically declare and adjudge the character and relationshi p of the parties, the existence of the ground for recovery, including fraud, fa lse representations, or impossibility of performance, defendants' failure to p erform, and the inadequacy of a remedy at law.

Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 15 16 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 16 of 85 63. The court should declare that laches applies to bar the alleged debt collector, or, since the trustee failed to comply with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act in order to proceed to trustee sale of the property, th e trustee is equitably estopped from taking any further action against the subject property.

64. There is no uniformly accepted definition of "predatory lending." However, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has defined predatory lending as lending "involving deception or frau d, manipulation of borrowers through aggressive sales tactics, or taking u nfair advantage of a borrower. 65. Since predatory lenders are constantly developing new techniques to t ake advantage of borrowers, it is generally accepted by the lending industr y and government agencies that monitor that industry that predatory lending practices include engaging in aggressive, high pressure and/or misleading tactics. Defendants, and each of them, engaged in this kind of conduct toward t he Plaintiff. 66. Defendants and each of them is directly or though agents or emplo yees entities or persons actively involved in the extension of credit as sa id term is defined under the Truth in Lending Statute (TlLA). Said Defendants subject t o the requirements of the Truth in Lending Act have violated the requiremen ts of the said act in that among other things: a.

Plaintiff further alleges that these violations are such as to re qUIre rescission and or cancellation of the loan herein and return of all funds received by Defendants from Plaintiff. 68. Plaintiff alleges that Defendants and each of them are such as to fall wi thin the requirements of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA)., and placed loans for the purpose of unlawfully increasing and otherwise obt aining yield spread fees, excess charges and amounts in excess of what would h ave been lawfully earned. 69. In addition to the requirements of RESPA, Defendant SUNTRUST acted either individually or jointly as "Servicers as that term is used within th e act and either individually or jointly violated the requirements of26 USCA 2605 (b) i n that the servicing contract or duties there under were transferred or hypotheca ted

with out required notice. 70. Plaintiff alleges that these violations are such as to reqUIre re SClSSlOn and/or cancellation of the loan herein on and return of all funds rece ived by Defendants from Plaintiff. 71. Plaintiff further alleges that she is entitled to actual damages inc luding all amounts paid to the Defendants or any insurance company (including all additional fees, penalties and interest paid at any time) as compensatory dam ages plus punitive and exemplary damages, in an amount to be determined at trial, sufficient to punish the SUNTRUST Defendants and serve as an example to other entities similarly situated.

Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 17 18 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 18 of 85 COUNT VI: DEClARATORY JUDGMENT: NO VALID CONTRACT EXISTS DUE TO LACK OF MUTUALITY OF CONSIDERATION 72. Plaintiff realleges the above and foregoing paragraphs ~ ~ 1 - 7 1 and incorporates the same by reference as if fully copied and restated herein belo w. 73. Under Florida law, as defined both by common law judicial precedent and statute, a contract requires at least one promise made by one party on each side of a contract, which promise is bargained for as consideration; 74. the contract will only be valid if, the one element of mutually promised performance each side of the agreement (to each party of a bilateral c ontract) would be consideration. 75. The May 23, 2003, Mortgage between Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, and SUNTRUST MORTGAGE is unenforceable and void as there are NO PROMISES constituting consideration made or intended by SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., to the Plaintiffby the SUNTRUST as the alleged Lender. 76. The Alleged LENDER (Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE or SUNTRUST BANK) did not even promise to make lend money, or recite that it had ever delivered money to Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson or Jeffrey P. Law son (Exhibit C). 77. Instead the Mortgage merely reqUIres that Plaintiff and her husban d acknowledge and affirm that they owe the money---no reason or fact constituting or suggesting "consideration" flowing from SUNTRUST MORTGAGE to Plaintiffs is ever given. 78. A promise or apparent promise is not consideration if by its term s the promisor or purported promisor reserves a choice or alternative perform ances. Words of promise, which by their terms make performance entirely optional with the promisor do not constitute a promise.

Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 18 19 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 19 of 85 79. Where the apparent assurance of performance is illusory, it is no t consideration for the return promise. An "agreement to do or not to do a c ertain thing" which requires mutual promises of detrimental undertaking between at least two parties; the detrimental undertakings are the bargained for exchange known as "consideration." Office Pavilion S. Fla., Inc. v. ASAL Prods., Inc., 849 So. 2d 367 (Fla. 4th DCA May 21,2003). 80. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., did not promise anything to Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson. 81. Accordingly, even if this court were to find that there IS privity of contract between SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, SUNTRUST BANK and Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, which the Plaintiff categorically denies, based on the evidence in Exhibit C, there is no enforceable contract because there were no BARGAIN ED FOR consider or detrimental promises which would constitute the same. 82. In that vain the Court may search the pleadings for any promise made on behalf of SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., which would constitute consideration TO as opposed to FROMKathy Ann Garcia-Lawson. A promise, which is bargained for is consideration if, but only if, the promised performance would be consideration. 83. A promise or apparent promise is not consideration if by its term s the promisor or purported promisor reserves a choice or alternative perform ances. Words of promise. which by their terms make performance entirely optional with the promisor, do not constitute a promise amounting to legally binding "consideration" sufficient to support a bilateral contract.

Where the apparent assurance of performance is illusory, it is no t consideration for the return promise. Office Pavilion S. Fla., Inc. v. ASAL Prods., Inc., 849 So. 2d 367. 85. Plaintiff further allege that Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson' obligation t o SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and/or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., constituted and was treated as an asset to SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., providing only detriment from the Plaintiff but incurring no detriment on t heir part nor without any benefit flowing from SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and therefore not constituting valid consideration within the meaning of bind

ing Florida precedent. 86. A contract concerning real property is not binding on either party unless its obligations are mutual and reciprocal. 87. An unenforceable contract as between the two original parties transfer s no right to title or interest in said property; Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and's contract with SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., lacked bilateral detriment and mutuality and is therefore unenforceable by SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., or any of its successors or assigns including but not limited to SUNT RUST BANK, INC., as well as the currently unknown and presently unidentifiable re al and true holder or holders in due course who are the actual transfer ees or assignees in privity with the Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson, which real and true holder or holders in due course are i n this complaint only identified as John or Jane Does 1-50. 88. Where one party elicits promises from another but neither promises nor undertakes any action detrimental to him/her or itself, that party has not "contracted" with the other. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 20 21 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 21 of 85 89. Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., neither promised nor did in fact transfer its own money to Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, nor did Kathy A nn Garcia-Lawson in her mortgage recite that she had received any money from SUNTRUST or "the lender" however defined. 90. In fact, on page 4 of 16 of the Mortgage recorded 06/04/2003 in Palm Beach County (in Book 15320 at Page 0494) SUNTRUST MORTGAGE required Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson to recite: "Borrower Covenants that Borrower is lawfully seized of the estate hereby conveyed and has the right to gr ant and convey the property and that the property is unencumbered, except for encumbrances of record." 91. On page 2 ofl6, item (F) (at Book 15320, page 0492) of the same Mortgage the term "loan" is defined as "the debt evidence by the note, plus interest, any prepayment charge and late charges due under the note, and all the s ums due under this Security instrument, plus interest"; 92. Nowhere does the May 23, 2003 Mortgage recorded on June 4, 2003, suggest, affirm or explain that the loan proceeds might have, much less that the loan proceeds actually did, come from the "Lender"; in fact, every singl e promise or representation in the Mortgage contract is unidirectional and unilat

eral, flowing from Plaintiff and her husband to SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, and this contract should therefore be declared so one-sided and lacking in mutu ality of consideration as to be void ab initio. 93. Plaintiff asks this Court to declare and adjudge whether it is a fraud to ask people such as herself to sign a document obligating "repayment" of sums with interest when the note itself was sold as a negotiable instrument (presumably at a Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 21 22 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 22 of 85 premium, to indicate the expected value of interest and credit-worthines s and a valuable property). 94. Indeed it is specifically stated (again on page 1, this time in ite m (E)) that "the Note states that Borrower owes Lender THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY THOUSAND AND 00/1000 dollars, plus interest" and further that "Borrower has promised to pay this debt in regular periodic payments and to pay the debt in full not later than June 1, 2018" (all on page 0492, page 2 of 16 of t he mortgage contract). 95. Nowhere does "THE MORTGAGE" (Exhibit C) state that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE ever delivered or transferred any funds, or that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., was the lawful owner of the money some unidentified third party (E.g. Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or the Federal Reserve Banking Syste m) was delivering to Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and her husband, nor even that the money was advanced from any assets or capital funds actually owne d by nor any "Draw" against the credit of SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., nor any other indication of detrimental action promised or undertaken by SUNTRUST Mortgage, Inc., including but not limited to SUNTRUST BANK, INC., as th e original ("once and future?") claimant to the status of holder-in-due c ourse despite the endorsement shown in Exhibit A. 96. It is a separate but valid question whether there is a real or reasonable Declaration of Trust or other valid grant by which the Plaintiffs mortgag e note was placed into trust with SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., N.A., after endorsement of the note to some unknown third party, or whether SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., was ever lawfully appointed anyone else's agent or trust ee Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 22 23 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 23 of 85 with power of attorney after assignment of the note "out" of SUNTRUST'S

ownership and possession. 97. Plaintiff predict and therefore allege that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., N.A., will not be able to show any valid delivery of Plaintiffs n ote back to SUNTRUST as an act creating any assignment back, agency, servicing agreement, power of attorney, or trust, and 98. Plaintiff ask this Court to declare and adjudge that this arrangem ent (if SUNTRUST even alleges it) is nothing but another fraudulent disguise o f the violation of Florida law perpetrated and perpetuated by the Florida "lenders" an d "originators" who have securitized their mortgages improperly and for pu rposes of defrauding the consumer. 99. Plaintiff ask this Court to order the production of the grantor's declarat ion (if any) or other initial, Trust-creating or agency-designating instrume nt of assignment binding either of the SUNTRUST Defendants together with Plaintiffs original note, and the further to order an examination or accounti ng of the chain-of-title of and to all these certificates, including an accou nting of all monies, properties, or projects lawfully invested in or paid or tender ed in equitable consideration of these receipts, together with a particularized list of the Trust's equitable beneficiaries and legal owners and managers. 100. Plaintiff submit that such an accounting may show no lawful trust eebeneficiary connection at all, or else that the Plaintiffs note was nev er properly transferred as a matter of legal or equitable right, title, or interest i nto any trust, but simply "cashed" like any other bearer instrument, payable on demand to an y and every unidentified "holder" until, like an ordinary dollar bill, t he original Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 23 24 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 24 of 85 paper simply wears out and must be recycled by the Federal Reserve ( or other designated) bank. 101. IN other words, SUNTRUST MORTGAGE act here, in relation to Plaintiff Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, in all probability, in no capacity any different from that of Mortgage Servicing and Pooling identical to the Mo rtgage Electronic Registration System which was so roundly criticized by Judge Walt Logan in his August 2005 decisions, whose analysis Plaintiff Kathy Ann Ga rciaLawson prays this Court to follow and declare to be the binding construction and interpretation of commercial paper/mortgage finance law in Florida. (Exhibit D)

. 102. Plaintiff alleges and will show, pursuant to Florida Common and Statutory Law, that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., provided nothing of any value to Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson, and even now SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., cannot show that it promised to transfer or did in fact transfer anything ac tually belonging to or possessed by SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., to the Plaintiff, but that instead, it has merely continually added to her alleged inde btedness by arbitrary and capricious additional assessments including but not limited to the aforementioned wind-damage insurance coverage. 103. Wherefore, no valid obligation or encumbrance was created by the Mortgage or Mortgage Contract between Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and SUNTRUST MORTGAGE or Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and SUNTRUST BANK, INC., despite the existence of a written instrument and any appa rent affirmation of contract which may facially appear in that instrument; this Court should adjudge and declare that the note (as a negotiable instrument itself), having been endorsed, is proof of the fraudulent intent and purpose o f Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 24 25 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 25 of 85 SUNTRUST in continuing to collect after "cashing" the note and transferring it to another (unknown and unidentified) party. 104. In short, the "loan" document does not indicate or even substant ially suggest that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE and subsequently Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., never actually took (nor promised to take) any action detrimental to itself. 105. The sole purpose of the written instrument entitled "Mortgage" (atta ched here as Exhibit C) was to confirm and specify that the Plaintiff Kath y Ann Garcia-Lawson and her husband Defendant Jeffrey P. Lawson had given up things of value, to their own detriment, and would be required to give up more things of value, while SUNTRUST MORTGAGE promised nothing, provided nothing, and promised only to collect the money which the "borrowers" were required to admit they owed, without any factual recitations regarding actual delivery or receipt of funds. 106. Plaintiff thus allege that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE in fact did nothing (except to collect payments) and SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., fraudulently holds itself out as a holder or trustee for the holder of certain securities, b ut in fact has simply filed suit for pure profit (with no real legal title or st anding, nor any equitable investment or commitment to the transaction). 107. WHEREFORE the Plaintiffs MORTGAGE CONTRACT dated May 23, 2003, with SUNTRUST MORTGAGE should be declared null and void.

Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 25 26 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 26 of 85 COUNT VII: MORTGAGE FINANCE INDUSTRY PRACTICES VOID AB INITIO DUE TO FRAUD IN THE EXECUTION AND INDUCEMENT 108. Plaintiff realleges and incorporates 1-1 07 by reference. 109. Plaintiff allege that this is standard mortgage finance industry practice , but that fact that the conduct of SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., in this case, and the Florida Courts' actions in conformity therewith, is common practice, does no t mean that common practice satisfies the Florida common or statutory la w of contractual viability because the consideration for a promise must be an act or a return promise, bargained for and given in exchange for the promise. 110. A mortgage is originated after a broker or "originating institution" rece ives a series of promises from a "borrower"; these promises take the form of a mortgage contract and a negotiable instrument known as a "promissory note." 111. The originator typically neither promises nor undertakes any actio n detrimental to itself, while soliciting and receiving a large number o f promises and actions detrimental to the note grantor or borrower. 112. A promissory note is securitized by a transfer of the "borrower' s" or grantor's note into a bundle of similar notes, group ranked and rated by FICO scores, date, location, and value of property, into a Mortgage-Backed E quity or Collateral Backed Obligation (MBE or CBO). 113. Once a promissory note is transferred into a securitized bundle, the originator or initial lender is no longer "holder in due course" of said note as a matter of law, and is no longer in privity with the "borrower" or original gran tor. 114. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., has taken the securitized note on 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, as well as the recor ded mortgage and SUNTRUST has in fact transferred legal and beneficial interest i n that note to an unknown party. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 26 27 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 27 of 85 115. Wherefore and accordingly, Plaintiff prays first that this Court will declare and adjudge that the industry practice of securitization of notes breaks both all common law bonds of privity of contract and holder in due co urse

doctrine of negotiable instruments, such that each and every securitize d mortgage, including but not limited to the Plaintiff's, is void and uncollect ible or at the very least uncollectible until the holder in due course comes forwa rd, and that the mortgage contract itself constitutes an unwarranted slander of and encumbrance upon Plaintiff's title. 116. Plaintiff further specifically prays that the contract between Kathy A nn Garcia-Lawson and her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson WITH SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and/or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., was unsupported by any detrimental promises or performance on behalf of either SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, and/or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., pursuant to mortgage finance industry and custom, and 117. in additionally or in the alternative Plaintiff prays that this C ourt will declare and adjudge that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, having securitized the mortgage, was no longer the holder in due course of the Plaintiffs origi nal note and had no right title or interest in the enforcement or collection of that note . 118. PRAYER FOR QUIET TITLE: Wherefore and accordingly, Plaintiff prays that this Court will declare and adjudge that no valid contract exists o r ever existed between Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., and that quiet title should now be awarded accordingly pursuant to Flori da Statues 6S.011-6S.061.

Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 27 28 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 28 of 85 COUNT VIII: QUIET TITLE TO 2620 NATURE'S WAY PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA 33410, FLORIDA 33414 119. Plaintiff realleges paragraphs ,-r,-r 1-118 of this Complaint and inc orporates the same by reference as if fully copied and restated herein below. 120. Plaintiff now sues for quiet title to 2620 Nature's Way, Palm B each Gardens, Florida 33410, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, Florida 3341 4 pursuant to the Florida Action to Quiet Title Statute contained in Section 65. 061 of the Florida Statutes, which governs quiet title actions. 121. As authorized by Florida Statutes 65.061 (1)-(2), Plaintiff asserts this claim to establish her clear title to this property, her home of ten years, aga inst the adverse claims of SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., its Trustee SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., N.A., as against Jeffrey P. Lawson, and all Jane and John Does that mayor may not have a supposed interest in the title to th e Lawson family homestead and marital estate. 122. Plaintiff identifies Jane and John Does as anyone who may have any

supposed interest in Title. Plaintiff believes that, given the current state of this economy (which is rife with fraud) that there could be other fraudulent parties, outside of SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., that may assert ownership. Plaintiff, though wary offraud, welcome the appearance of the true Original Note Holder and also assign the title of John and Jane Does to any TRUE holder of the note, whether that holder turns out to be HSBC, UBS, or some anonymo us numbered account holder of a nameless Swiss bank in Zurich. 123. Jurisdiction and Venue are proper pursuant to the Florida Quiet Title Statutes because 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, the principal property in question for which quiet Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 28 29 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 29 of 85 title is sought, is located within the County of Palm Beach within the t erritorial jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern Distr ict of Florida. 124. Plaintiff has filed a lis pendens as required by law with the County C lerk of Palm Becah, Florida. Pursuant to the Florida Statutes Plaintiff ident ify the principal property as 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 3 3410, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, Florida 33414, as being legally described as : Lot 1363, Block E, of Olympia-Plat II, according to the Plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 92, Page 1, of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida, A.P.N.: 73424417020013630. 125. Plaintiff ask and pray for relief that this Court to grant quiet title to the Plaintiff, because SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., 's encumbrance on the subject property entirely depends on a contract with Kathy Ann Garcia-La wson and her husband Jeffrey P. Lawson, which was either void ab initio or voidable by Plaintiff after SUNTRUST endorsed, assigned and transferred its interest to parties unknown without notice or compensation of any kind to Kathy An n Garcia-Lawson and for the simple reasons that (a) SUNTRUST MORTGAGE undertook not to assume and accept no detriment to itself nor any entity under i ts control, and there was accordingly no mutuality of consideration, (b) e ven if SUNTRUST MORTGAGE were a bona fide contracting party on origination, after securitization of Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson' note, SUNTRUST MORTGAGE surrendered its status as holder in due course of Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson' note, and ceased to have any privity of contract with Kat

hy Ann Garcia-Lawson and ., or their successors in interest whatsoever. 126. And the same can certainly be said of the current mortgagor of interest a nd Defendant SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC .. Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson v. SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., and Jeffrey P. Lawson, FEBRUARY 12,2010 29 30 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 30 of 85 127. To this end, Plaintiff ask this Court to devise a means of publi shing or effectively noticing the unknown and possibly untraceablepurchasers of th eir securitized mortgage note to appear and answer this complaint or be f orever barred from doing so, even if the John Does or Jane Does or Corporations who ar e the actual holder in due course of Kathy Ann Garcia-Lawson and s' note reside o r are incorporated or do business abroad. 128. Plaintiff reserves the right to amend this Complaint for Quiet Title f urther to conform with Florida or Federal law before any final determination of the leg al sufficiency of this Complaint. 129. Pursuant to Florida Statute 65.061, Plaintiff pray that the Court will ho ld a hearing to examine into and determine Plaintiff Claims against all of the Defendants, and that upon Final Trial-by-Jury, demand for which is her eby made and tendered, that the Court will award Plaintiff quiet title to their property, the subject of this lawsuit, ordering that all encumbrances a nd liens, including the Mortgage filed by or on behalf of Defendants SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., N.A., SUNTRUST BANK, INC., or any other party be ordered stricken and removed from the public property records of Florida, o r else expunged and marked as VOID if otherwise required to remain in the pu blic property records of each relevant county. 130. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff move and request that this Court declare and adjudge that SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., does not have, and never had, any legal right, title, nor any equitable or beneficial interest in the enforc ement of the Plaintiffs note, and should be both temporarily and permanently en joined from proceeding against 2620 Nature's Way, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410.

Plaintiff demands a trial-by-jury of all issues of fact so triable, and all

mixed questions of law and fact which may be triable as a matter of controlling case law, and Plaintiff demands an advisory jury on all other matters to the extent permitted by law, with appropriate instructions distinguishing th e advisory from the deciding issues presented to the jury for resolution.

Plaintiff also asks a full refund of all monies paid to SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC., or SUNTRUST BANK, INC., after the date of the endorsement transferring interest in the Plaintiffs note to parties unkno wn, including all payments made and received towards principal, interest, f ees, penalties, and all other charges made by or for the benefit of the Defendants.

Some of those conditions are described as follows: If all or any part of the Property or any Interest in the Property is sold or transferred (or if Borrower is not a natural person and a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold or tran sferred) without Lender's prior written consent, Lender may require immediate payment in full of all sums sec ured by this Security Instrument. However. this option shall not be exercised by Lender if such exercise is pr ohibited by Applicable Law. If Lender exercises this option. Lender shall give Borrower notice of acceleration. The notice shall provide a period of not less than 30 days from the date the notice is given in accordance with Section 15 within which Borrower must pay all sums secured by this Security Instr ument. If Borrower fails to pay these sums prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any r emedies permitted by this Security

These amounts shall bear interest at the Note rate from the date of disbursement and shall be payable, with such interest, upon notice fro m Lender to Borrower requesting payment. If this Security Instrument is on a leasehold, Borrower shall comply with all the provisions of the lease. If Borrower acquires fee title to the Property, the leasehold a nd the fee title shall not merge unless Lender agrees to the merger in writing. 10. Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a conditi on of making the Loan, Borrower shall pay th.e premiums required to maintain the Mortgage Insur ance in effect. If, for any reason, the Mortgage Insurance coverage required by Lender ceases to be availabl e from the mortgage insurer that previously provided such insurance and Borrower was required to make s eparately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurdoce, Borrower shall pay the pre miums required to obtain coverage substantially equivalent to the Mortgage Insurance previously i n effect, at a cost substantially equivalent to the cost to Borrower of the Mortgage Insurance previousl y in effect, from an alternate mortgage insurer selected by Lender. If substantially equivalent Mortgage Insurance coverage is not available, Borrower shall continue to pay to Lender the amount of the sepantely designated payments that were due when the insurdnce coverage ceased to be in effect. Lender will accept, use and retain these payments as a non-refundable loss reserve in lieu of Mortgage Insuranc e. Such loss reserve shall be non-refundable, notwithstanding the fact that the Loan is ultimately pa id in full, and Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such loss reserve. Lender can no longer require loss reserve if Mortgage Insurance coverage (in the amnunt and for the period that Lender requires) provided by an insurer selected by Lender again becomes available. is obtained. and Lender requires separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurdllce. I f Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a condition of making the Loan and. Borrower was required to make separately designated toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, Borrower shall pay the premiums required to maintain Mortgage Insurance in effect, or to provide a non-refundable loss reserve, until Lender's requirement for Mortgage Insurance ends in accordance with any written a greement between Borrower and Lender providing for such termination or until termination is b y Applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 10 affects Borrower's obligation 10 pay interest at the rate pro vided in the Note. Mortgage Insurdnce reimburses Lender (or any entity that purchases the

Note) for certain losses it may incur if Borrower does not repay the Loan as agreed. Borrower is not a party to the Mortgage Insurance. . Mortgage insurers evaluate their total risk on all such insurance ill f orce frOID time to time, and may enter into agreements with other parties that share or modify their risk. or reduce losses. These agreements are on terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the mortgage ins urer and the other party (or parties) 10 these agreements. These agreements may require the mortgage insurer to make payments using any source of funds that the mortgage insurer may have available (which may inclu de funds obtained from Mortgage Insurance premiutn..')' As a result of these agreements, Lender, any purchaser of the Note, an other insurer, any reinsurer, any other entily, or any aftiliate of any of the foregoing, may receive (directly or indirectly) amounts that derive from (or might be characterized as) a portion of Borrower's paymen ts for Mortgage Insurance. in exchange for sharing or modifying the mortgage insurer's risk, or redu cing losses. If such agreement provides tltat an affiliate of Lender takes a share of the insurer's risk in exchange for a share of the premiUlns paid to the insurer, the arrangement is often tenned "captive r einsurance." Further: (a) Any such agreements will not affect the amounts that Borrower has agreed to pay for Mortgage Insurance, or any other tenos of the Loan. Such agreements will not increase the amount Borrower will owe for Mortgage Insurance, and tbey will not entitle B orrower to any refund . .. 6{Fl) 10005) Form 3010 1101 48 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 48 of 85 AP# LAWS00028081164 LN# 0028081164 BOOK 15320 PAGE 0500 (b) Any such will not affect the rights Borrower has - if a ny - witb respect to the Mortgage Insurance under the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998 or any o ther law. These rigbts may include tbe right to receive certain disclosures, to request and obtain cancellation of the Mortgage Insurance. to have the Mortgage Insurance terminated automatical ly. and/or to receive a refund of any Mortgage Insurance premiums tbat were une:lmed at the time of such cancellation or termination. 11. Assignment of Miscellaneous Proceeds; Forfeiture. All Miscellaneous Proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender. If the Property is damaged, such Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applie d to restoration or repair of the Property, if the restoration or repair is economically feasible and Lender's security is not lessened.

During such repair and restoration period, Lender sball have the right to hold such Miscellaneous Proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect such Property to ensur e the work has been completed to Lender'S satisfaction, provided that such inspection shall be undertaken pr omptly. Lender may pay for the repairs and restoration in a single disbursement or in a series of p rogress payments as the work is compleled. Unless an agreement is made in writing or Applicable Law requ ires interest to be paid on such Miscellaneous Proceeds, Lender shall not be required 10 pay Borrower a ny interest or eamings on such Miscellaneous Proceeds. If the restoration or repair is not economically fea sible or Lender's security would be lessened, the Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the sums s ecured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the excess, if any. paid to Borrower. Su ch Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied in the order provided for in Section 2. In the event of a total taldng, destruction, or loss in value of th e Property, the Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instru ment, whether or not then due, with the excess. if any, paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taldng, destruction, or loss in value of the Property in which the fair marl>et value of the Property immediately before the partial taking, destruction , or loss in value is equal to or greater than the amount of the sums secured by this Security Instnnne nt immediately before the partial taldng, destruction, or loss in value, unless Borrower and Lender othe r,\'ise agree in writing, the sums secured by tllis Security Instrument shall be reduced by the amount o f the Miscellaneous Proceeds multiplied by the following fraction: (3) the total amount of the sum s secured immediately before the partial taking, destruction, or loss in value divided by (b) the fair market value of the Property immediately before the partial taldng, destruction, or loss in value. Any b alance shall be paid to Borrower. In tlle event of a partial taldng, destruction, or loss in value of the Property in which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the partial taldng, destruction , or loss in value is less than the amount of the SUlns secured inunediately before the partial taldng, des truction, or loss in value, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing, the Miscellaneous Proce eds shall be applied to the SUlllS secured by this Security Instrument whether or not the sums are then due. If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if, after notice by Len der to Borrower that the Opposing Party (as defined in the nexl sentence) offers to make aD a ward to settle a claim for damages, Borrower fails to respond to Lender within 30 days after the date th e notice is given, Lender is authorized to collect and apply the Miscellaneous Proceeds eitller to restoration or repair of the Property or to the SUlns secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due. "Oppo sing Party" means the third party that owes Borrower Miscellaneous Proceeds or the party against whom Bo

rrower bas a right of action in regard 10 Miscellaneous Proceeds. Borrower shall be in default if any action or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, is begun that, in Lender's judgment, could result in forfeiture of the Property or other material impairment of Lender's interest in the Property or rights under this Security Instrument. Borr ower can cure such a defanlt and, if acceleration has occurred, reinstate as provided in Section 19, by cau sing the action or proceeding 10 be dismissed with a ruling that, in Lender'S judgment, precludes forfeiture of the Property or other material impairment of Lender'S inlerest in the Property or rights under this S ecurity The proceeds of (0005) P.,.,00' '6 9 /t Fo,m 3010 1/01 49 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 49 of 85 AP# LAWS00028081164 LN# 0028081164 BOOK 153PAGE 0501 any award or claim for damages that are attributable to the impairment of lender's interest in the Property are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Lender.

Borrower Not Released; Forbearance By Lender Not a Wainf. Extensio n of the time for payment or moditication of amortization of the sums secured by this Security Instrument granted by Lender to Borrower or any Successor in Interest of Borrower sball not operate to release the liability of Borrower or any Successors in Interest of Borrower. Lender shallnol be required to commence proceedings againsl any SUccessor ill Interest of Borrower or to refuse to extend time f or payment or otherwise modify amortization of the sums secured by this Security Instrument by reason of any demand made by the original Borrower or any SUccessors in Interest of Borrower. AllY forbearance by L ender in exercising any rij:bt or remedy including, without limitation, lender's acceptance of payments fr om third persons, entities or Successors in Interest of Borrower or in amounts less than the amount then d ue, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy. 13. Joint and Several Liability; Cosigners; Successors and Assigns Bound. Borrower covenants and agrees that Borrower's obligations and liability shall be joint and sev eral. However, any Borrower who co-signs this Security Instrument but does not execute the Note (a "c o-signer"): (a) is co-signing this Security Jnstrument only to mortgage, grant and convey the cosigner'S i nterest in the Property under the lenDS of this Security Instrument; (b) is not personally obligated to pay the sums secured by this Security

Instrument; and (e) agrees that Lender and any other Borrower can agre e to extend, modify, forbear or make any accommodations with regard to the terms of this Security Inst rument or the Note without the co-signer's consent. Subject to the provisions of Section 18, any Successor in Interest of Borrower who assumes Borrower's obligations under this Security Instrument in writing, and is approved by Lender, shall obtain all of Borrower's rigbts and bendits under this Security Instrument. Bor rower shall not be released from Borrower's obligations and liability under this Security Instrument unless Lender agrees to such release in writing. The covenants and agreements of this Security Instrument shall bind (except as provided in Section 20) and benefit the successors and assigns of Lender. 14. Loan Charges. Lender may charge Borrower fees for services perform ed in connection with Borrower's default, for the purpose of protecting Lender's interest in the Property and rights under this Security Instrument, including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees, pro perty inspection and valuation fees. In regard to any other fees, the absence of express authority ill this Security Instrument to charge a specific fee to Borrower shall not be construed as a prohibition on the charging of such fee. Lender may not charge fees that are expressly prohibited by this Security Instrument or by Appli cable Law. If the Loan is subject to a law wltich sets maximum loan charges, and that law is finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges collected or to be collected in connection with the Loan exceed the pennitted limits. then: (a) any such loan charge sball be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the charge to the permitted limit; aud (b) any sums already collected from Bo rrower which exceeded permitted limits will be refunded to Borrower. Lender may choose to make this refund by reducing the principal owed under the Note or by making a direct payment (0 Borrower. If a refund reduces principal, the reductiOlI will be treated as a partial prepayment without any prepaym ent charge (wbether or not a prepayment charge is provided for under the Note). Borrower's acceptanc e of any such refund made by direct payment to Borrower will constitute a waiver of any right of acti on Borrower might have arising out of such overcharge. 15. Notices. AU notices given by Borrower or Lender in connection with this Security Instrument must be ill writing.

IN RE: MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC. (MERS) (See attached list of Defendants/Case #) ___ . __ ... _-..1 ... ORDER REGARDING STANDING OF MERS J..Q..FORECLOSE ON BEHALF OF OTHERS Numerous cases have co"nE: before the undersigned Judge filed by Mortgage Electronic Registratio 1 Systems, Inc.

In all cases MERS is seeking to represent the interest of i.lnaU, corporate entity in the collection of a Note via foreclosure of a fnOrt9J9:.:. ;11ERS describes its role as a "nom inee" seeking to thf.? inte,"est of another corporation. The Court began raising a question as to ttlE: jJ wherein one corporation wo uld represent another corporation'::; intE:I"':;;} bei'ore the Bench. The Court's rais ing the question on a case by caSE basis did not provide resolution. Numerous attorneys represent the :n(c"e.;t of r-1ERS in the various cases and a single definite answer or !egal 'vi/iJ5 not forthcoming. The Court issued Ed! Tc Show Cause in approximately fifteen cases via a standard Ord:,-. Til! initial Order was dated June 7, 200 5 establishing a show caUSE: as July 26, 2005 at 3:00 P.M. before the Bench. The Oroej pmvidec.i mat additional cases that came to the -------"'- -66 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 66 of 85 Case 3:06-cv-00374-TJC-HTS Document 21-3 Filed 06/26/2006 Page 2 of 20 Court's attention would be added to the show cause docket. The Court observed a reasonable cut-off time period and by the time the docket was complete there were twenty-eight cases noticed under the standard Order To Show Cause. The Trial Bench has a basic duty and authority to establish that the . '. proper parties are before tile Court. See Morales v. All Right Miami, Inc., 755 So.2d 198 (Fla. 3 rd DCA 2COO) and Dollar Systems, Inc. v. Detto, 688 So.2d 470 (Fla. 3 rd DCA 1977). The MERS files typically came to the Court's attention when a Motion for Su,ill"i1cHY Judgmer'1t was submitted. The Court

would then have occasion to revicN the file and compare the allegatio ns in the Petition for Foreclosure tc the contents of the file. Without fai l the review resulted in finding ttlat the allegations in the Petition were not supported by what the Court viewed. in the Court file. The standard allegation In the Complaint that " ... Plaintiff now owns and holds a mortgage note and mortgage ... ' Ti'ie Court never found that allegation wh ich is contained in all of' the t1ERS Ccmplaints to be supported by a r eview of the documents witt.in the Court tile. The Court noted that in ttl,:; Order To Show Cause that " ... The Court is unclear as to how a can sue as "Nominee" for another corporation.

The Court has received memorandums on behalf of f"IERS and on behalf of some of the Defendants. The question has been well and argued to the Court by both si des of the issue. The Court's j;"lquiry as to w(iether the proper party was before the Court in the several MERS fiies wos cased upon review of numerous fi les. In MERS v. MontalvQ, Cas2 r ... u. 04-001919CI-11, the Affidavit in S upport of Summary Judgment filed by one Tracy Johnson on December 13, 2004 advised the Court that the Plaintiff tillERS) ", . .is the holder and o wner of the note ... " The same lnforrnotioll w(;.'.;. repeated in a form Affidavit from Angie Fleckenstein dated February 10, 2005. The information in the Affidavit was inconsistent with the exhibi: to Hie Complaint which the Court reviewed and noted that first Union (\Ilortgage Corporation was the lender. The inconsistency did not stop; a Note Affidavit in the file alleging that the Defendants had executed Qnd a Promissory Note and " ... that said note was assigned and deliverct.J to Washington Mutual Bank, F.A. in

" The Los t Note Affidavit was signed by a Vice-President of Washington Mutual Bank, F.A. on March 2, 2004. The Summary' Judgment sought in that case was denied based upon a failure to pruv'ide un.-efuted proof in support of the Mot ion for Summary Judgment as to what S:1t:-.:y or person owned the Note. In Mers v. Young, :::i'Jil No. 05-000650C1-11, MERS sued as nominee for Countrywide Horne Inc. The question as to proper pa rty arose in 2 of the COil'ipiaint where MERS identified itself as nominee for Arrmet Mortgage, .1.1'1<':. d/b/a American Mortgage Network of Florida.

" (T 25, Line 23) The Coure has fUl'tiler been advised that MERS never takes possession of any funds. MERS is not the servicing agent or nominee as in the case cited by Mr. Trawick at Section 4-2 of his 2005 work in Foo tnote 8 in Overseas D'eveloQment Inc. v. R.A. Krause, 323 So.2d 679 (Fla. 3 rd DCA 1975). The factual situation in Overseas is substantially different than in the case at bar in that ' ..... tne Plaintifr, :50 styled, was the named payee on the indebtedness tnat was the subject of the foreclosure ...

Krause was ttle payee 0(1 t.'"1t: indebtedness/the Note and was not m erely in attendance to er;L'Jrce the Note ami foreclose on the Mortgage. Florid a law' is clear that assignment 01' e t'lortgage without the Note is a null ity. The partiCipation of tv1ERS before ttle Bench is solely to collect on beh alf of another cOiporation.

The concept is foreign to this Court. Careful review of tne argument presented by attorney Brochin doe s not convince t:,e Court that t.'lERS is a real party in interest in any sen se. 2 . '. Were the Court to accept MERS as a real party in interest in the co ntext of collecting a Note in which they have no beneficial interest, then the next step might well be a personal injury suit filed by a nominee who migh t have a contractual reiationship WiUi tiie injured party. Some may seek to represent another using a Pmver of Attorney. Such attempts have historically not been aliowed, hcwever, if a nominee with as little relatio nship to the subject matter as t-1ERS is allowed, it may open a new area of practice. Counsel for MERS nas cited Ule provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code with agiiity. Review of ti"/ose provisions and review of the cases cited by counsel indicate MtRS seems to take the position that there are numerous beneficial interests in regard to a Promissory Note. MERS 2 Co-Counsel, April Carrie Chc<:ney, Esquire has raised several points in the representation of Defendant Dixon in Circuit Civil Case No. 04-008325CI -11. In addition to arguing against MF.RS !laving standing to foreclose, counse l questions whether Promissory Notes are negotiaole instruments, whether MERS is eng aged in consumer collection agency activity without a proper license, whether M ERS is

participating as a mDrtgage lender without a proper license in Florida and finally whether MERS is involved in the unauthorized practice of law. The Cou rt having found the standing issue under Ruie 1.210 to be dispositive, the rema ining issues have not been considered or upon. 15 .. _.- .... _ ...... _._ .. -.. -_ .......... _ ... _ ... __ ... _-------_ .. - ._--- ---- --_._ ...... 80 of 85 Case 9:10-cv-80240-KAM Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/12/2010 Pag e 80 of 85 Case 3:06-cv-00374-T JC-HTS Document 21-3 Filed 06/26/2006 Page 16 of 20 concludes that the most dominant beneficial Interest of collecting the mone y due can be less important than other beneficial interests that MERS a rgues exists in the Note. The Court does not read the provisions of the Un iform Commercial Code or the cases cited to support the position that the "beneficial interest" to sue absent any other beneficial interest is a s ufficient 'f beneficial interest: that can stand alone. The provisions of the Unifo rm Commercial Code do not support tile mention of MERS in the Mortgage and labeling MERS as a "mortgageE" as giving rise to a right to collect on a Note on which MERS is not mentioned and in which MERS acknowledges it has no beneficial interest. The f'llERS sitJation seems tv ;':ave resulted from the establishment of the corporation and agreements Witt1 lenders without the participation o f the Florida Legislature or tile Supreme Court in its rule making role. Th e fact that the market might find it easier to operate with the real party in interest somewhere in the of a foreclosure lawsuit is not a compelli ng reason to modify the tiaditiono, (cyuirements of a party to establish statuS to bring litigation.

(Again, MERS is not the servicing agent but rather the "foreclosure agent", at bes t, regarding these Notes and Mortgages.)3 The reading of Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.210 by MERS is generous to its position. Review ()f the memorandum and research by th is Court provides no Florida case tt,at lnterprets the Rule to allow a cor poration with no beneficial interest in the Note to sue on the Note for collection . Accordingly, the Court finds that MERS is not a proper party to file a lawsuit to collect on the I\otes wnere the corporation has no benefic ial interest.

In Pines, 333 So .2d 472 (Fla. 2 nd DCA 1976), cert. dismissed 352 So.2d 172, the Court held to a limited extent th at the appellee partnership could prosecute their lawsuit to protect the partnership's interest in the real . property which intt:;!rest was statutorily allowed to be held in th e partnership name. The Legislature codified that result in 1995 in Chapters 620.8201 and 620. 8307(1)(2), Florida Statutes Annotated, providing that partnerships are separate legal entit ies from the partners and that partnerships could sue and be sued in the partnership n ame. See Trawick 2005 edition, Sectlon 4-2 .. The policy considerations that led to the Court of Appeals ruling and then the legislative action are perhaps better considered at the Appellate Court or legislature level where a broader is provi ded than on the case by case approach of the Trial Court. 4 In the files where a Motion to Substit'Jte Plaintiffs has been fil
