The 28th Trust, City Investment Capital as trustee v. Crouch et al.
Jun 27, 2013OUTCOME: JUDGMENT AGAINST MY CLIENT REVERSED
On June 27, 2013, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court ruled in favor of my clients, the Crouches and reversed the trial court's judgment of unlawful detainer against them. The matter arose fr ... om the Federal Protecting Tenant's at Foreclosure Act (PTFA). The client was a tenant who rented a home that a consortium (CIC, or "City Investment Capital") purchased on the courthouse steps at a foreclosure sale. Instead of honoring my clients' lease, as required by law, CIC chose to evict them. I was brought on as appellate counsel with the Public Law Center. This was a year-long battle that was hard-won.
