A Beautiful Model for Loan Fraud

2008-03-26T09:22:00.000-07:00

Cleveland is suing 21 of the nation’s largest banks and financial institutions, accusing them of knowingly plunging the city into a financial crisis by flooding the local housing market with subprime mortgage loans to people who could never repay.

City officials hope to recover hundreds of millions of dollars in damages, including lost taxes from devalued property and money spent demolishing and boarding up thousands of abandoned houses.

"To me, this is no different than organized crime or drugs," Jackson said in an interview with Plain Dealer reporters and editors. "It has the same effect as drug activity in neighborhoods. It's a form of organized crime that happens to be legal in many respects."
The Baltimore and Cleveland efforts are believed to be the first attempts by large cities to recover losses blamed on the foreclosure epidemic, which has particularly plagued Ohio.

But Cleveland's suit is even more unique because the city has based its complaints on a state law that relates to public nuisances. The suit also is far more wide-reaching than Baltimore's in that it targets the investment banking side of the industry, which feeds off the mortgage market.

[Cleveland Law Director] Triozzi acknowledged the lawsuit, with its unique nature and 21 large defendants, could move slowly. He also expects the banks will request the case be moved to federal court. "I understand fully what we are up against here," the law director said. "We would not be doing this if we did not believe we had a sound legal argument to stand on."

Jackson, asked if long litigation would be worth the city's time and money, replied: "We're in this for the long haul. I trust Director Triozzi will tell me when to hold them or fold them."

Judge Corrigan will have to decide "how far up the food chain" to go in determining responsibility, said Cleveland State University Law professor Kathleen Engel, an expert on mortgage-backed securities. She believes the city can make a case against the investment bankers.

Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann also is considering a state lawsuit against investment banks. Dann said he is investigating "some of the very same people" identified in the city's suit.

Dann said a state filing is months away and probably wouldn't be submitted as a public-nuisance case. But he commended Jackson and Triozzi's "creative" approach.

"There's clearly been a wrong done, and the source is Wall Street," Dann said in a phone interview. "I'm glad to have some company on my hunt."

Ini kisah nyata tentang sepuluh anak kampung di Pulau Belitong, Sumatera. Mereka bersekolah di sebuah SD yang bangunannya nyaris rubuh dan kalau malam jadi kandang ternak. Sekolah itu nyaris ditutup karena muridnya tidak sampai sepuluh sebagai persyaratan minimal.

Pada hari pendaftaran murid baru, kepala sekolah dan ibu guru satu- satunya yang mengajar di SD itu tegang. Sebab sampai siang jumlah murid baru sembilan. Kepala sekolah bahkan sudah menyiapkan naskah pidato penutupan SD tersebut. Namun pada saat kritis, seorang ibu mendaftarkan anaknya yang mengalami keterbelakangan mental. ”Mohon agar anak saya bisa diterima. Sebab Sekolah Luar Biasa hanya ada di Bangka,” mohon sang ibu. Semua gembira. Harun, nama anak itu, menyelamatkan SD tersebut. Sekolah pun tak jadi ditutup walau sepanjang beroperasi muridnya cuma sebelas.
