Another state is accusing Countrywide Financial of mortgage fraud. Connecticut joined California, Florida and Illinois among the states that have sued Countrywide, which was responsible for one in every six mortgages in 2007, according to the New York Times . The State of Connecticut is accusing the mortgage giant of steering customers into mortgages they could not afford, and charging excessive legal fees to borrowers in default. Most of these practices were executed through the use of vague language and misinformation on the loans' Truth in Lending disclosure forms ( TILA violations , such as not stating that many of the subprime loans Countrywide wrote were negative amortization loans; a violation of the Truth in Lending Act). Richard Blumenthal, Connecticut's Attorney general, said today that, "Countrywide conned customers into loans that were clearly unaffordable and unsustainable, turning the American dream of homeownership into a nightmare." Connecticut, in the lawsuit that was filed with Hartford Superior Court, is demanding that Countrywide make restitution to affected borrowers, give up improper gains, and rescind, reform or modify all mortgages that broke state laws. Connecticut's complaint described the lending practices of Countrywide as, "oppressive, unethical, immoral and unscrupulous," (New York Times, 8/7/08). The Connecticut AG accused Countrywide of inflating borrowers' incomes to qualify them for loans they coul ... Source: www.ksnt.com --- 57 minutes ago

County Attorney David Yoder won a second full term as county Attorney during the Republican primary Tuesday. Yoder beat challenger Mike Hoelscher, receiving 2,123 votes to Hoelscher’s 1,562 votes to clinch the nomination and the race. Yoder faces no opposition in the November general election. Although there were Democratic write-in votes registered in the election count, there is no viable Democratic candidate, County Clerk Joyce Truskett said. Some people had marked the write-in bubble and written no name, and others had written in one of the candidates on the Republican ticket, which the law does not allow, Truskett said. Yoder said he was disappointed his challenger took a negative tack in his campaign. “I made a conscious effort to maintain a high level of integrity,” Yoder said. “I ran a clean campaign throughout. I was appalled at my opposition’s lack of integrity and negative, vicious attack on the last night before the election.” Yoder said he thought his experience and community involvement helped sway voters. “I believe the community saw through the negativity and chose the better candidate,” he said. Hoelscher said he believed in the principals he discussed in his campaign, including a push for tougher plea agreements with offenders. “It was a long process,” he said. “ I believed in the issues I addressed during the campaign. I respect the will of the people and congratulate Mr. Yoder.” Hoelscher said he plans to contin ... Source: www.norwichbulletin.com --- 2 hours ago
The Attorney for former Griswold employee Andrea Charron grilled former First Selectman Anne Hatfield on the witness stand for close to an hour Thursday morning. Jacques Parenteau, Charron’s Attorney, asked Hatfield what she knew about the insurance policy on the old town hall that burned Jan. 3, 2006. “You knew that no one had called to cancel the insurance, correct?” Parenteau asked. “That’s what I’d been told,” Hatfield replied. “Well if you’ve been told it, that’s what you knew,” Parenteau said. Parenteau also asked if Charron, as resident of Griswold, had the right to speak up against the unethical practices of an employer. Hatfield said Charron’s complaint wasn’t legitimate. Parenteau commented, “Her position was that you were acting inappropriately. She had a right to bring that to your attention, don’t you agree?” “Yes,” Hatfield said. Charron’s’ hands were trembling as she sat at the plaintiff’s table across from Hatfield on the stand. ... Source: www.independent.com --- 2 hours ago

Ty Kaufman’s first and only year of opposition for the office of county Attorney proved to be negative. Kaufman, who has held the office of McPherson County Attorney since 1985, had faced no opposition during his previous 23 years in office. Local Attorney and challenger David Page won the primary election Tuesday by 351 votes, earning 55.6 percent of the total votes. Page led Kaufman after the first precinct votes were announced and held a stable lead the rest of the night. Kaufman said he was happy for Page and had no regrets for the way he ran the office. “It’s been a good run,” Kaufman said of his time as county Attorney. “I have no regrets and I make no apologies for the way I ran the office.” Page, who previously worked in the county Attorney’s office under Kaufman, said he knew the race would be a tough one. Both candidates spent hundreds of hours going door-to-door and talking to people throughout McPherson County. According to documents filed with the McPherson County Clerk’s office, Page reported $1,303.59 in expenditures and other disbursements for his campaign. Kaufman’s filing indicate he had $2,251.10 in expenditures, nearly $1,000 more than Page. Kaufman ran on a platform of experience and past success. Page countered that with a promise for better communication between the county office and the general public. “I felt people knew and were satisfied that I was qualified for the position,” Page said. “But I knew peop ...
