Plaintiff is WM SPECIALTY MORTGAGE LLC, WITHOUT RECOURSE, 505 City Parkway West, Suite 100 Orange, CA 92868. 2. The names and addresses of the Defendants are STEVEN A. GRIFFITH, 618 West Louther Street, Carlisle, PA 17013 and TRACY L. GRIFFITH, 618 West Louther Street, Carlisle, PA 17013, who are the mortgagors and real owners of the mortgaged premises hereinafter described. 3. On August 21, 2004 mortgagors made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the Property hereinafter described to AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE COMPANY, which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds of Cumberland County as Book 1880, Page 2278. The mortgage has been assigned to: WM SPECIALTY MORTGAGE LLC, WITHOUT RECOURSE by assignment of Mortgage. Plaintiff is the real party in interest pursuant to a purchase or transfer of the mortgage obligation from the last record holder and an Assignment of Mortgage to Plaintiff has been and/or will be lodged for recording with the Recorder of Deeds in the ordinary course of business. The Mortgage and assignment(s) are matters of public record and are incorporated by this reference in accordance with Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligation to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are matters of public record. 4. The Property subject to the Mortgage is more fully described in the legal description set forth as Exhibit "A" ("Property"). 5. The mortgage is in default because the monthly payments of principal and interest are due and unpaid for January 01, 2007 and each month thereafter and by the terms the Mortgage, upon default in such payments for a period of one month or more, the entire principal balance and all interest due and other charges are due and collectible. 6. The following amounts are due to Plaintiff on the Mortgage: Principal Balance ..................................................................................$123,090.18 Interest from 12/01/2006 through 05/31/2007 at 11.2500% .....................$7,001.53 Per Diem interest rate at $38.47 Reasonable Attorney's Fee at 5% of Principal Balance as more fully explained in the next numbered paragraph ...................$6,154.51 Late Charges from 01/01/2007 to 05/31/2007 .............................................$575.94 Monthly late charge amount at $75.93 Costs of suit and Title Search ......................................................................$900.00 Fees ..............................................................................................................$106.00 Recoverable Balance ......................................................................................$25.50 Suspense ...................................................................................................$1,035.83 Escrow ...........................................................................................................$64.47 Monthly Escrow amount $442.66 $136,753.36 7. If the Mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriff's Sale, the Attorney's Fees set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The Attorney's Fees requested are in conformity with the Mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff is entitled to collect Attorney's fees of up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the Property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. 8. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an "in personam" judgment) against the Defendants in this Action but reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendants have received a discharge of their personal liability in a Bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is, in no way, an attempt to re-establish the personal liability that was discharged in Bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the Mortgage and sell the Property pursuant to Pennsylvania law. 9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose and a Notice of Homeowners' Emergency Mortgage Assistance has been sent to Defendants by certified and regular mail, as required by Act 160 of 1998 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, on the date(s) set forth in the true and correct copy of such notice(s) attached hereto as Exhibit "B". The Defendants have not had the required face-to-face meeting within the required time and Plaintiff has no knowledge of any such meeting being requested by the Defendants through the Plaintiff, the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency, or any appropriate Consumer Credit Counseling Agency. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands a de terris judgment in mortgage foreclosure in the sum of $136,753.36, together with interest at the rate of $38.47, per day and other expenses, costs and charges incurred by the Plaintiff which are properly chargeable in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage and Pennsylvania law until the Mortgage is paid in full, and for the foreclosure of the Mortgage and Sheriff's Sale of the Property.

Plaintiff has not presented evidence that it is the owner of the mortgage rather it has just avers that it has applied for the assignment of the same. 4. Plaintiff offers no proof of title to the mortgage and thus has no right under the mortgage and thus has not standing to bring this suit. 5. If Plaintiff is holder by assignment at a minimum the assignment should be attached as an Exhibit.

Steven Griffith Tracy Griffith Defendant CIVIL ACTION FORECLOSURE NO: 07-3322 MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS Facts Plaintiff alleges Defendant has defaulted on said mortgage. Plaintiff filed a complaint in foreclosure of said property. Plaintiff filed said complaint prior to being the rightful owner of the mortgage on the property. Plaintiff now file the Preliminary Objections and Memorandum of law in support thereof. Legal Standard "One of the most stalwart propositions of the law is that, in order to maintain an action, a party must have standing;." Lal v. Ameriauest Mortg. Co., 2004 PA Super 302 quoting Jefferson Bank v. Newton Assocs., 454 Pa. Super, 654, 686 A.2d 834, 838 (Pa. Super. 1996) DOES PLAINTIFF HAVE CAPACITY TO SUE WHEN PLAINTIFF IS NOT THE OWNER OF THE MORTGAGE? Legal Argument. "One of the most stalwart propositions of the law is that, in order to maintain an action, a party must have standing." Lal v. Ameriquest Mortg. Co.. 2004 PA Super 302 quoting Jefferson Bank v. Newton Assocs., 454 Pa. Super. 654, 686 A.2d 834, 838 (Pa. Super. 1996) In the case at hand, the Plaintiff just avers that the mortgage is in the process of being assigned and/or recorded. The Plaintiff has shown no proof of ownership. The Assignment is not recorded so it cannot be incorporated by reference and the assignment is not attached as an Exhibit. As such, the Plaintiff has no standing to sue until such time Plaintiff can prove proper ownership of the mortgage. This honorable court cannot take for granted that the mortgage assignment is proper and/or legal and/or allowed and/or valid and/or even in existence. This court must require some minimum burden to prove standing. It is a fact that there is no document on record or attached as an Exhibit showing ownership by the Plaintiff. Plaintiff must be the proper owner to have standing. If you allow this claim to stand then you are creating a situation where anybody could walk into court to sue with no burden of proof. Wherefore, Defendant respectfully requests that this Honorable Court sustain Defendants Preliminary Objections and dismiss the complaint until such time the Plaintiff shall become the owner of said mortgage and thus have standing to said bring said complaint. Respectfully, Michael E Stosic, Esq. VERIFICATION I, Michael E Stosic, Esq. do verify that the statements made in said motion are true and correct. The reason for the substitute verification is that Defendants and counsel are hours away and time is of the essence to file said motion. Defendant will send a substitute verification.
