1st thought: I can’t believe people think that they can stay in their homes after they stop paying their mortgage.
2nd thought: Bravo to the lawyers who craved out their own niche.
In closing: Who would would refi for a person willing to miss their mortgage payments and sue to stay in the house?

It’s not surprising that the motion was denied by Maine’s state court.
Thanks for posting this. I missed it in my readings.
How many in Congress are attorneys? Most–scary.
