1526546 filed 12/10/2014)have refused and failed to take any remedial action to with draw the

intend to foreclose despite their lack of authority and despite their ongoing violations of

the Consent judgment (Doc 12).

32. On October 16, 2014 the Ombudsman from Ocwen Respondent, Nilekha Ghate, Consumer

Account Analyst, Office of the Consumer Ombudsman, Ocwen loan Servicing, LLC sent an

email ( Exhibit 9) correspondence to the Petitioner Christopher Stoller stating that “Ocwen

Loan Servicing's office of the CEO and President acknowledges receipt of your e-mail

correspondence dated October 1, 2014. As the Consumer/Customer Advocate, the Office of the

Ombudsman welcomes the opportunity to respond to your inquiry. Attached are copies of the

signed original Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 10) and Deed of Trust (Exhibit 11) signed by

Mr. Philip B. Stone indicating that the loan originated on May 2, 2006 with Countrywide Bank,

N.A. Ocwen commenced servicing this loan from Bank of America (BOA) on September 8,

2012 with the last payment satisfied on the loan being February 1, 2008 payment.” take Judicial

Notice of the Email marked as Exhibit 9.

33. The Original note that Respondent Ocwen refers to (Exhibit 10) is a forgery. When it is

compared to the actual true and correct copy of the original Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 12) a

copy of which was actually filed in the New Mexico Bankruptcy of Phil Stone .On page one

(Exhibit 12) of the actual true and correct copy of the Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 12), a copy

of which the court can take judicial notice is from the New Mexico Bankruptcy filing of Philip

Stone. The Philip Stone bankruptcy filing Case 10-11558 Doc 18 filed on 06/11/10. A close

examination of the actual note (Exhibit 12)caries a stamp at the upper right hand of the said

Adjustable Rate Note, “I do hereby certify this to be a true and correct copy of the original.

SECURITY TITLE. carrying a signature. The Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 10) that the

Respondents claim was a true and correct copy that Respondent emailed ( to the Petitioner

marked as Exhibit 10 is in fact a forgery. The Respondents manufactured note (Exhibit 10)

does not carry a certification of the top right page 1 of 6 (New Mexico Bankruptcy Case No.

Page 16: INDIRECT CRIMINAL CONTEMPT CHARGES FILED AGAINST OCWEN FINANCIAL AND ITS LAWYERS

10-11558 entered 6/11//10 at page 4 of 28) (Exhibit 12). Secondly, the forgery (Exhibit 10)

contains a stamp on page 5 of 5 which has a fraudulent stamp “PAY TO THE ORDER OF

WITHOUT RECOURSE COUNTRYWIDE BANK, NA BY Laurie Meder, Senior Vice

President. This endorsement is missing completely from the original note Exhibit 12. Secondly

the signature of Laurie Meder is not an original signature it is a forgery. A rubber

stamped “signature”. Which of course does not appear on the original note (Exhibit 12). It

is clear that the respondents are engaging in indirect criminal contempt, in violations of

the consent judgment (Doc 12) outside of the purview of the court and are continuing to

forge documents in order to effect fraudulent mortgage of the Petitioner's said property

foreclosures, which the Ocwen Respondents have no lawful right to foreclosure.

34. Respondent Robert R. Maddox for the Ocwen Respondents stated in Defendant-Appellee

Ocwen's Reply in Support of its Motion for Summary Affirmance (Document 1526546

USCA Case 14-5265 filed on 12/10/2014 at page 8) “...the foreclosure sale will be set

again”. Despite the conditions that the respondents agreed to in the Consent Judgment

(Doc 12), the respondents are engaging indirect criminal contmacious conduct and on

going mortgage foreclosure fraud in violation of the consent judgment (Doc 12).

35. The Respondents are clearly in violation of Rule 42(b) of the Federal Rules of

Criminal Procedure Indirect Criminal Contempt in conducting the unlawful residential non-

judicial foreclosure marked as Exhibit Group Exhibit 5 in Arizona which is clearly

evidenced in this complaint.

DISCUSSION

Contempt of court is any act which is calculated to embarrass, hinder or obstruct a court in its

administration of justice, or to derogate from the court’s authority or dignity. People v. Campbell 123

Ill.App.3d 103 (1984). Criminal contempt is concerned with preserving the dignity of the court while

Page 17: INDIRECT CRIMINAL CONTEMPT CHARGES FILED AGAINST OCWEN FINANCIAL AND ITS LAWYERS

civil sanctions aim to enforce rights of private parties. In re Marriage of Wilde, 141 Ill. App. 3d, 464,

(1986).

Indirect criminal contempt is distinguished by the fact that it occurs outside of the presence of

the judge or as to matters of which he does not have personal or constructive notice. In re Marriage of

Betts 161 Ill.Dec. 892. The discussion most frequently arises where defendants are trying to classify

contempt as indirect rather than direct, because of the greater procedural protections afforded a

defendant who is accused of indirect criminal contempt including the requirement of proof beyond a

reasonable doubt. See e.g. Id.

Indirect criminal contempt encompasses a broad range of conduct, including: spitting on a

petitioner as the respondent exits the courtroom (where the judge did not witness the act), In re

Marriage of Madary, 519, NE 2d, 509 (1988), failure to return to court after a recess (where the court

did not have knowledge of the reasons for the defendant’s absence), In re Marriage of Slingerland, 347,

Ill. App. 3d, 707, the filing of the a civil law suit against a trial judge, People v. Kaeding, 192, Ill. App.

3d, 660 (1989), the presentation of a falsified transcript (where the judge did not have judicial notice

the defendant’s mental state). People v. Gerard, 146 N.E.2d 229 (1957), and other willful

misrepresentations People v. Penson, 557 N.E.2d 230. The filing of contemptuous documents can be

indirect criminal contempt. People v. Kaeding, 239 Ill. App. 3d, 851 (1993). Whether the contempt is

direct or indirect hinges on whether the judge has personal or constructive knowledge of all of the

elements necessary to prove the offense. Id.

When indirect criminal contempt is premised on the violation of a court order (Doc 12), Totten

explains the necessary elements. See People v. Totten, 118 Ill. 2d, 124, (1987). “To sustain a finding of

indirect criminal contempt for the violation of a court order, outside the presence of the court,” it must

be proved that there is a court order (Doc 12) and a willful violation of that order (Emphasis added).

Id. [People v. Wilcox, 5 Ill. 2d, 222, (1955)]. The case on which Totten relies elucidates the scope of

Totten. As the court explained in Wilcox, it is necessary to distinguish between two types of contempt,

Page 18: INDIRECT CRIMINAL CONTEMPT CHARGES FILED AGAINST OCWEN FINANCIAL AND ITS LAWYERS

contempt that “consists of unseemly conduct” and contempt that is contemptuous disobedience of an

order of the court. The existence of an order of the court (Doc 12) and proof of willful disobedience

are essential to a contempt of the latter type. Id. Totten places no restriction on the type of indirect

criminal contempt at issue in this case, which does not involve the violation of a court order.

ARGUMENT

The Respondents in this case created a contemptuous document(s) Notice of Trustee Sale

(Group Exhibit 5), the forged adjustable rate note (Exhibit 10) emailed7 The false Notice of Trustee

Sale (Group Exhibit 5), the forged adjustable rate note (Exhibit 10) was contemptuous because it

contained a willful misrepresentation(s) that were “calculated to embarrass, hinder, or obstruct the court

in the administration of justice.” The Respondents were acting with intent to obstruct the DC

Appellate Court in the administration of justice. The Respondents stated in pleadings filed before this

court that .( At page 8 Defendant-Appellee Ocwen's Reply in Support of its Motion for Summary

Affirmance Doc 1526546 filed 12/10/2014)have refused and failed to take any remedial action to with

draw the fraudulent Notice of Trustee Sale (Group Exhibit 5) and the respondents stated they

intend to foreclose despite their lack of authority and despite their ongoing violations of the

Consent judgment (Doc 12).

The Respondents then, out side of the purview of this court, during the course of this litigation,

again submitted a forged Adjustable Rate Note, claiming that it was an original when the Respondents

knew or should have know that it was a forgery (Exhibit 10)

THERE IS PROBABLY CAUSE THAT THE RESPONDENTS ENGAGED IN INDRECT

CRIMINAL CONTEMPT

Probable cause is a level of reasonable belief, based on facts that can be articulated, that a

person committed the offense charged . Here, the actus reas is that a false representation was made in

7 Wire fraud in violation of the criminal Rico Statute.

Page 19: INDIRECT CRIMINAL CONTEMPT CHARGES FILED AGAINST OCWEN FINANCIAL AND ITS LAWYERS

the respondent email (Exhibit 9) stating that the attached adjustable rate note was a true copy of the

original when it was not see (Exhibit 12) The mens rea is that the misrepresentation was willful and

was calculated to hinder and obstruct the respondent from seeking justice before this court, during the

pendency of the on going litigation. The Respondents filed the false Notice of Trustee Sale (Group

Exhibit 5), the forged Adjustable rate Note (Exhibit 10) to thwart the administration of justice.

Now, on the record there are two conflicting Adjustable Rate Notes (Exhibit 10) and (Exhibit

12).

Given the respective motives of the Respondents and the fact that they have been sued by 49

State Attorney Generals and the Consumer Protection Bearu for identical offenses in the underlying

case, it is probable that the Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 10) is a forgery and contains the false

representations, as well as the Notice of Trustee Sale (Group Exhibit 5).

In light of the long history of Respondents, who have engaged in mortgage foreclosure fraud

and thwarting the administration of justice, there exists a reasonable belief that the alleged false

misrepresentation(s) contained in the Notice of Trustee Sale (Group Exhibit 5) and the forged

Adjustable Rate Note (Exhibit 10) were made willfully, and not innocently. It is clear that the

Respondents, had the motive (along with the history of making false mortgage foreclosure documents)

to make the false Notice of Trustee Sale (Group Exhibit 5) and the forged Adjustable rate Note

(Exhibit 10) in order to unlawfully foreclose on the Petitioner's said property, as the Respondents have

done thousands of times before. It is reasonable to conclude that the Respondents willfully made the

misrepresentation(s) in the said documents in order to hinder and obstruct the court in its administration

of justice. There exists a reasonable belief, based upon the facts which have been articulated, that

Respondents committed the offenses charged. The standard of probable cause has been met. The

respondents manufactured fraudulent documents a Notice of Trustee Sale (Group “Exhibit 5) and an

adjustable rate note (Exhibit 10) in order to justify their fraudulent foreclosure of the Petitioner’s said

property.

Page 20: INDIRECT CRIMINAL CONTEMPT CHARGES FILED AGAINST OCWEN FINANCIAL AND ITS LAWYERS

WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays that the Court immediately assign this matter for

prosecution to the U.S. Attorneys office, that a date for hearing be immediately set, that the hearing be

conducted and that the Court make findings of fact, conclusions of law and a recommendation for such

contumacious conduct is warranted by its findings. Further that the Attorney/Respondents be

immediately suspended from the practice of law before the DC Appeals Court pending a full hearing on

this Petition for Indirect criminal complaint which contains prima facie and irrefutable evidence of the

Respondents violations of the Consent Judgment (Doc 10) and indirect criminal contempt.

For the foregoing reasons, the Respondents are properly charged with the offense of indirect

criminal contempt. The court is directed to issue an order to have this case re-assigned for a hearing on

Petitioner's Petition for Indirect Criminal Contempt. To permanently enjoy the Respondents from

foreclosing on the Petitioner's said property and from ever conducting a Trustee Sale of the said

property. To stay this proceeding pending a complete hearing on Petitioner's Petition for Indirect

Criminal Contempt and to grant the Petitioner any other relief that the court feels is right and just.
