BofA, Brian Moynihan are Asked to Disclose their Attorney of Record in the Los Angeles Superior Court
Ongoing refusal of the US Government to subject Bank of America to the rule of law, combined with "corruption of the courts and the legal profession", undermine the US financial systems and violate the US obligations in international banking accords and Human Rights conventions.     
 
 

Los Angeles, April 13 - In Lomas v Bank of America Plaintiff Susan Lomas is trying to protect her rights against alleged fraud by Bank of America and others in foreclosure procedures.  The case is opined as Fraud on the Court through collusion of BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION, California Judge PETER MEEKA, Clerk of the Court JOHN A CLARKE, and Attorney MARK ASDOURIAN, aimed to dispossess Lomas, while denying her due process and access to an honest court.

Now, Lomas has requested Bank of America and its President BRIAN MOYNIHAN to disclose the identity of their Attorney of Record, if any, in the case. [[i]]

Fraud by financial institutions in the state and US courts through appearances by unauthorized attorneys "with no communications with clients" clause has been going on for years  - with the full knowledge of the courts and law enforcement - but with no consequences to the perps.  The unauthorized attorneys file false records and declarations, but never file any records signed by their clients. Through such fraud, the clients are provided deniability for the criminal conduct of their attorneys. 
This type of fraud was most eloquently described in a 2008 Memorandum Opinion by the Hon Jeff Bohm from the US Bankruptcy Court in Texas, based on a yearlong study of the litigation practices of Countrywide in courts across the United States. [[ii]] 

The evidence indicates that Bank of America and Attorney Mark Asdourian are involved in such fraud in the case of Lomas v Bank of America in the Los Angeles Superior Court as well: [[iii]]

• Attorney Mark Asdourian appears in the case for BofA, while refusing to provide certificate of Attorney of Record. 
• Attorney Asdourian has filed false and deliberately misleading banking records as "Request for Judicial Notice", which was granted by Judge Peter Meeka.
• No declaration or any other record signed by Bank of America authorized person was ever filed in the case.

Needless to say, this type of fraud is contrary not only to the law, but also to the Bank of America Code of Ethics and Outside Counsel Procedures, which prohibit appearances by unauthorized attorneys and obstructionist conduct in litigation. [[iv]]

Brian Moynihan, today President of Bank of America, is readily familiar with this type of fraud from his tenure as General Counsel of Bank of America.  Evidence to that effect was previously provided to the US Congress, to SEC, to the Controller of the Currency, to FBI, and to the US Attorneys Office: [[v]]

• Appearances of unauthorized attorneys were widely practiced by Countrywide;
• Following the January 8, 2008 publication of fraud in the US Court in Pennsylvania, the bank collapsed;
• Following the July 1, 2008 takeover of Countrywide by Bank of America, under the tenure of Timothy Mayopoulos as General Counsel, such practices were brought to a halt, but
• Within 24 hours of the December 10, 2008 ouster of Mayopoulos and his replacement by Brian Moynihan, the practice was resumed.

The evidence of fraud in conduct of Judge Meeka and Clerk John Clarke in the case of Lomas v Bank of America has been continuously growing: [[vi]]

• Judge Meeka refuses to provide a statement on the record regarding financial benefits to him, if any, by Bank of America, and issued false "minutes" instead.
• Judge Meeka refuses to accord Plaintiff Lomas due process notice and service of minutes and access to court records.
• None of the minutes were certified by the Deputy Clerk of the Court;
• None of the minutes were noticed and served by the Court;
• Multiple proceedings were secretly listed in the minutes as "off of the record";
• No Initial Case Management Conference was ever held;
• Plaintiff has been repeatedly denied access to the Register of Actions (California civil docket), where the true registration of the proceedings (or lack thereof) would be discerned;
• An invalid online "Case Summary" is published by the Court, which would lead a naive reader to conclude that valid and effectual proceedings have been held and rulings have been entered by the court.

Ongoing refusal of the US Government to subject Bank of America to the rule of law, combined with "corruption of the courts and the legal profession" [[vii]] undermine the US financial system and economic recovery.
