-EXHIBIT 1-
A NOTICE FROM THE COURT REGARDING LAWSUIES TO FORECLOSE 3
MORTGAGES ON HOMES '
Ifyou are being sued to foreclose the mortgage on a residential property and if you are the person who borrowed the money for the
mortgage, you have a right to go to “mediation.” At "mediation," you will meet with a Florida Supreme Court certified mediator
appointed by the court and also a representative of the company asking to foreclosure your mortgage to see if you and the company
suing you can work out an agreement to stop the foreclosure. The mediator will not be allowed to give yon legal advice or to give
you an opinion about the lawsuit. The mediator’s job is to remain neutral and not take sides, but Lo give both sides a chance to talk
to each other to see if an agreement can be reached to stop the foreclosure. If you and the company suing you come to an agreement, a
settlement agreement will be written up and signed by you and the company suing you. With some limited exceptions, what each side
says at the mediation is confidential and the judge will not know what was said at mediation.
‘The Twentieth Circuit has implemented the Homestead Mediation Program (FMP) to provide meaningful mediations early in the
foreclosure process for homeowners that meet the criteria listed below. Election into or out of this program does not eliminate the
opportunity to mediate at any other time prior to trial as may be allowed by Rule 1.700, Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, and Florida
Statute Chapter 44.
Eligibility Criteria for the Homestead Mediation Program;
© ‘The home has a homestead exemption; and© You are the person who borrowed the money for the mortgage; and
U The origination of the note and mortgage sued upon was subject to the provisions of the federal Truth in Lending Act,
Regulation Z.
To participate in the Homestead Mediation Program, the borrower must provide all the following
documents within 20 days after you were served the summons:
+ File with the Clerk a written response to the Complaint, with a copy to Plaintiff's attorney
+ File with the Clerk a completed and signed Homestead Mediation Program Opt-In Form, with a copy to the Plaintiff's attorney.
*And, the Borrower shall complete and sign the Financial Worksheet, include all attachments requested, and submit the original 10 the
Plaintiff's counsel, with a copy to the Court's
Mediation Department.
The Homestead Mediation Program Opt-In Form and the Financial Worksheet can be found on the Covrt's website at
http://werw.ca,cjis20.org/home/main/foreclosure.asp or by calling the Court Mediation Department at (239) 533-3353
Please note that this program is not to be used as a tactic to delay the foreclosure process and is intended for Borrowers who have the means
and ability to effectively mediate their case. An election on the part of the Borrower to opt-in to the HMP does not operate 2s an automatic
stay of the case, but rather, the proceedings, including but aot limited to discovery, may continue pending mediation.
The fee for mediation shall be $300.00 for the first two (2) hours, to be equitably aud proportionately divided between the Plaintiff and the
Borrower, as provided for by Rule 1. 720(g). The Borrower's portion of the mediation fee, $150.00, is due at the beginning of the mediation
session, and shall be payable directly to the Mediator. Any additioval fees for mediation in excess of the initial two (2) hours shall be
apportioned equally between the Borrower and the Plaintiff and shall be payable directly to the Mediator.
H it is determined that the Borrower does not have sufficient payment for the Borrower's portion of the mediation fee at the beginning of
the mediation session, it shall be reported as a failure to appear by the Borrower. Any party that fails to appear at a properly noticed
mediation session and the mediation does not occur; the party who failed to appear will be tesponsible for a "no show” cancellation fee of
$300.00. Due to the voluntary nature of this program by the Borrower. if the Borrower fails to appear, this will be deemed as a waiver of
the privilege of further participation in the HMP, mediation will not be rescheduled and the case will proceed accordingly.
if you have questions or for additional information regarding the Homestead Mediation Program, contact the Lee County Mediation
office at (239) 533-3353 or visit our website at. http://vww.ca.cjis20.org/home/main/foreclosure.asp.in the Foreclosure Process
