$*,* plus money for filing for the court order plus money for him going to court plus some type of executive fees or something like that and interest also prior to the home being sold at auction I received a letter from the bank's attorney telling me that if I would send him the balance due on the past that he would stop my foreclosure why would I pay him instead of sending the money to the bank cuz he asked me to make a check out to him for the balance that was due for the mortgage and he would stop all legal actions
Did you receive any written agreement from the bank's attorney stating that paying him directly would stop the foreclosure?
No not at all you have another question if my home my last court date where the judicial judgment came through was June 6th * he's sending me paperwork saying that the judgment was made in December of *

Citizens Bank the lawyer's name is Gregory javardian
What is the nature of the court order that attorney Gregory Javardian sent you?
The heading is in the court of common pleas first judicial district civil trial division it says exceptions to share sale distributions my mortgage balance was $$*,* he is saying that the total debt is $*,* and also my home was sold June 6th * and since then I have received two statements from citizens Bank for 2 months of mortgage payments and when I spoke to citizens Bank about the court order I received they were not aware that they couldn't even pull up any paperwork on the house and we're not aware that the house have been sold or that a court that that a court order had been issue
Did you receive any official documentation or notice about the sale of your house from the court or the bank?
No now that kind of think of it I never received any type of documentation from citizens Bank clearing the loan or from the city sheriff's department that the home have been sold and upon looking and checking the deed online it's still in my mother-in-law's name it was sold to a third party
Have you contacted the third party who supposedly bought the house?
No I haven't because I didn't want to do anything without first consulting an attorney and also a lot of court paperwork that I received it was just placed in my doorway I never signed for anything the whole process of the Court proceedings
What is the name of the third party who supposedly bought the house?
I'm not I can't find the name of the person but here in the the the document that was issued for the judgment because July 21st citizens that was listed at *,* $* with * cents and $* for interest and he says it did not include corporate advances escrow advances interest and accumulated late fees all accumulated they fees and everything were included in my debt on my on my mortgage statements in addition he's saying additional legal fees of * have been incured after the sale and are due and owing after the sell the house why would I have to pay their attorney I think he's committing fraud something is illegal
Did you receive any official notice from the court or the bank about these additional fees and charges after the sale of the house?
No I did not like I told you the bank wasn't even aware of any of anything that was going on at all because why would they keep sending me monthly statements for payment of mmonths after the house was sold and the balance keeps increasing because of non-payment and interest when they've been paid by the judicial judgment in full June 6th * but I received the last statement August 4th *
Did you consult with a local attorney or legal aid service about this issue?
No I wanted to get some advice prior to contacting attorney to see if someone could give me some type of enlightenment on whether this attorney is doing something that's not right and to guide me in the right way so that I know what to say to an attorney when I talk to them
What is the status of the deed of the house currently?
Because I didn't receive any of the signed documents until after I spoke with citizens Bank about the continuing Bank statements and why they were requesting more money than what was owed on the home and they haven't already paid in full from the proceeds at auction
What is the current status of the deed according to the online records you checked?
Current status that we saw two days ago was that it was still in my husband's mother's name it had never been transferred
Did you or your husband's mother ever sign any documents transferring the deed to the third party?
My mother's husband died in * and he was the only heir and we even questioned citizens Bank on why they never offered him the right to assume the mortgage since he was the only living heir and was administrator of the estate
Did your mother's husband leave a will, and if so, was the property mentioned in it?
She was never married and the will the will she left everything to my husband and his brother and his brother proceeded her and death any other persons that could have cleaned on your State signed off at the profanetaries office and citizens Bank was aware of the her death and were taking all letters of administration death certificate and all other legal papers necessary after her death and like I said he was never offered the option to assume the mortgage in his name
What steps did you take after your mother-in-law's death to transfer the property deed to your husband's name?
They kept saying it was a tangle title
What steps did you take to resolve the "tangled title" issue?
They were working on that right now I'm just wondering what this attorney is doing as far as trying to basically drive my husband because I don't think anything is right with the sheriff sale because how do you get a judgment for the same amount in December of * and then we go to court June 6th * when the judicial judgment was ordered and the house was in the sheriff sale took place the same day
What steps have you taken to contest the judgment and the sheriff's sale?
Not contesting the judgment for the sheriff sale I'm contesting what this lawyer is trying to do as far as say that we owe him money sending me court orders and paperwork after what the judge said was to be paid was paid and it covered everything and all that he's asking for says is after the fact that the house being sold that's not my problem me paperwork court orders and requesting money for his legal obligations after the sale of the home and everything else that's not my issue that's the bank's issue and as far as he's saying interesting things all the interests on the home was it was included if I am to be aware all that is included in your monthly statement like a credit card bill and why do I owe him escrow fees and in his direct words the unused proceeds from the sale on the amount of *,* but they want to recover any excess proceeds available in distribution of their total debt of $*,* * including outstanding legal fees and cost and cured and direct the share to distribute the additional proceeds in the amount of $*,* for mortgage what are you talking about when I only owe *,* on the total mortgage that should have included escrow fees interest past due correct
Did you receive any official notice from the court or the bank about these additional fees and charges after the sale of the house?

What steps have you taken to verify the authenticity of the documents sent by Gregory?
I called citizens Bank directly and they were unaware of anything they couldn't even pull up any files on the home mortgage
