Showing Original Post only (View all)Ole Tale: BofA was foreclosed upon by couple they tried to foreclose on [View all]
This is a story, from my friends at Occupy Democrats, which documents one of those rarest of times, when Wall Street gets its arse kicked by main street. A retired couple bought a Bank of America foreclosure - for cash - and then BofA tried to foreclose, on the same house - again. When the lawyer for the retired couple proved the bank was guilty of bad faith, the court ordered BofA to pay the lawyers fees, and the bank refused to do so.
So the retired couple foreclosed on Bank of America.

It's nice to see justice get done - for a change.
