Introduction - EBT Notices Served 3. When THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON made foreclosure motion, they attached thereto an affidavit by Vanessa Giorgiani (See Affidavit of Indebtedness - Exhibit 1). The affidavit reflects criminal misconduct on the part of THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON. 4. Other circumstances herein are also fishy. The Mortgage Company lent $105,000. They now seek $233,000. This is quite suspicious. 5. After the borrower died, The Mortgage Company rented his house to unknown tenants at unknown rentals and refuse to provide an accounting. 6. The Estate served EBT notices to find out a few details about the indebtedness. THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON refuses to appear for deposition. BACKGROUND - MAFIA PRACTICES 7. Leroy Brodwith (LeRoy) lived at the premises in question at 561 New 3 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 "Premises" Jersey Avenue, in Brooklyn (the "Premises"). 8. According to Plaintiff, on or about November 9, 2000, LeRoy Brodwith took out a montage loan in the amount of $105,000. (See Affidavit of Indebtedness - Exhibit 1) 9. on November 2003. (See Exhibit 2 - Death LeRoy died, however, 8, Certificate). 10. The Mafia would be proud of THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON - They lent $105,000, were paid $6,000, ran up the interest on a dead man for thirteen years - and now want $233,000 more! 11. THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON wants this Honorable Court to give them over twice the loan amount in vigorish) 12. As shown more fully in the accompanying affidavit of Defendant Theresa Brodwith and the Affidavit of Indebtedness (Exhibit 1 here), for five years following the borrower's death, the Mortgage Company rented out the mortgaged property to unknown tenants at an unknown rental AND CONVERTED THAT RENTAL MONEY TO ITS OWN USE! 13. Mr. Brodwith died on November 8, 2003; the Mortgage company says Mr. Brodwith did not go into default until July 20, 2008: 4 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 3. The Borrower has breached said obligation an defaulted on the Note. The Borrower failed to make the payment pursuant to the terms of The Note and Mortgage commencing with the July 20, 2008 payment, which default remains uncured. Died 2003. No Default until July 20, 2018. These books are indisputably cooked. 14. It is respectfully submitted that it is no use to have a referee determine what is due on cooked books! How much did the Mortgage Company charge as rent? How much did they apply to the mortgage? Isn't it a crime to rent out someone else's house and keep the money yourself? Mr. Witness, after Mr. Browith died, how did you gain access to his premises to rent them out to unknown parties? Did you break and enter? I would not be surprised ifthe Mortgage Company rented out the decedent's premises for far more that the mortgage payment - some to the monthly possibly applying payments - but the rest for themselves. Who can nay? monthly keeping say 15. No one knows, without a deposition, if the Mortgage Company chose the payment as the rent - even though the fair market value is far more? monthly Any bribes involved. We don't know. The Mortgage Company is hiding the books and records - if kept any. broker? they Pay any 16. It is respectfully submitted that this Honorable Court insure that prior to letting a referee add up crooked books, the Mortgage Company has to be asked: 5 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 Mr. Witness: You knew Mr. Brodwith died in November of 2003! Why didn't you sent any notice to his heirs? Why did you rent out the and the rental yourself for the next 5 + years? property keep money Mr. Witness: At the time Mr. Brodwith died, he owned the Mortgage Company $99,000. Right? But now you are claiming he owes $233,000? 17. The Mortgage Company refuses to produce any account This Honorable Court's attention is urgently directed toward Plaintiff's Affidavit of Indebtedness. This Affidavit is a manifest hoax on this Court. It is respectfully submitted that this affidavit of Vanessa Giorgiani, sworn to October 10, 2017, be referred to the New York State Department of Financial Services as well as to the Kings County District Attorney on account of the perjurious statements there and the improper insurance practices ascribed therein to Plaintiff. Query: The man was dead as of November 8, 2003! How could he go into default commencing with the July 2008 payment? Somebody is lying to the Court. 18. IfPlaintiff was getting paid by someone else, Plaintiff is obligated to tell this Court who paid and how much was paid, so a fair an honest balance due can be obtained. 19. We need to know if the New York State Department of Financial Services permits Plaintiff to ensconce unknown parties to live in premises of deceased mortgagor, so long as they pay the mortgage. Can mortgagees secretly rent 6 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 out the mortgaged premises after the mortgagor dies? 20. We need to know if Plaintiff got secret payoffs to permit unauthorized persons to live in premises of deceased mortgagor. 21. Plaintiff's Affidavit of Indebtedness says the Plaintiff let someone live in Decedent's premises for five (5) years. Doesn't the rental value of Plaintiff's tenants accrue to the Defendant Estate of LeRoy Brodwith? 22. The Estate is entitled to all rents and revenues of Plaintiff relative to Plaintiff maintaining such tenancies and other use and occupancy. 23. After depositions are held of the Plaintiff, this matter should be set down an inquest for the purpose of determining the amount Plaintiff owes the of the Estate of Leroy Brodwith in connection with its renting of the premises to tenants and other misconduct. See (Exhibit 7 - Deposition Notices) BORROWERS DEATH 11/2003 - THIS FORECLOSURE 12- 2017 24. Plaintiff let 14 years elapse since LeRoy's death and made money on the dead man in four ways. 25. First, Plaintiff is unconscionably seeking $223,000 for a $99,426. outstanding balance. From a dead minority man, yet! 7 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 26. Second, Plaintiff, by trick and deception, ran up the interest balance to $123,000 - for 14 years - not to know the Borrower was dead. by pretending Plaintiff intentionally sent notices to the wrong addresses; 27. Third, Plaintiff made money of letting out the premises to unknown third parties, for five (5) years! 28. Fourth, by bringing an expensive legal action seeking all the expenses possible, when this was never necessary. CONCLUSION 29. It is likely that the unfair and illegal conduct described about is par for Plaintiff's course, especially in the minority community. 30. depositions must be held to find out - what took so long? Therefore, 31. Why did Plaintiff letthe premises to unknown third parties for five years? 32. How much revenue did Plaintiff receive on the Premises during the five Plaintiff' - (5) years from Plaintiff's death until 07/0/08 the date Plaintiff first declared the long dead borrower in default? 33. Are these standard practices for Plaintiff? 34. It is respectfully submitted that the misconduct Plaintiff admits to here needs to be brought to the attention of the Department of Finances - we cannot just ignore it. It is worse than the fiduciary scandal. 8 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 80 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 07/12/2018 35. The Giorgiani affidavit is obviously false. Big mortgage companies should not be permitted to lie their way to ill-gotten windfalls. 36. Per Plaintiff's exhibit Some two years ago, the alleged holder of the mortgage, the Plaintiff commenced a foreclosure action in which we interposed numerous defenses, which can be seen as attached hereto in Exhibits 5 and 6. WHY DIDN'T THEY FORECLOSE? 37. It could not be clearer that it is the policy of the holder of this mortgage, after people die, perhaps just people in the minority community, not to foreclose the mortgage but to accelerate it and to collect as much as possible from the heirs, who may not even be aware of the mortgage. 38. Theresa Brodwith and the Estate ofLeroy Brodwith spent years thereafter trying to get Beniah Anokam out of the premises or to pay rent, and to get his children out of the premises or to pay rent, but all to no avail. WHEREFORE for all the foregoing reasons,Theresa Brodwith and the Estate of Leroy Brodwith respectful ask this Honorable Court to make and enter an order: (a) Ordering that no reference be held herein until discovery has been held of Plaintiff; (b) Directing that depositions of Plaintiff be held to determine: (1) Why Plaintiff wrongfully forbore for 15 years to foreclose on this 9 of 11 FILED: KINGS COUNTY CLERK 07/12/2018 05:02 PM INDEX NO. 508445/2015 NYSCEF DOC.
