Cook County Sheriff Suspends Evictions from Forclosure


www.huffingtonpost.com
Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart will suspend all mortgage foreclosure evictions beginning Thursday, he announced today.
These mortgage companies only see pieces of paper, not people, and don't care who's in the building," Dart said in a statement. "They simply want their money and don't care who gets hurt along the way

Who gives a *snip* if it's legal at this point. I personally applaud him, and think that more should act independently to stave off this monstrous set of actions by ALL the profiteers globally.

More power to him. He gets my vote

In TX (down here anyways), the constables are called to issue the eviction and be present in case force is needed to evict the people.

It may be the sheriff that does it there. He and his deputies will just refuse to serve the eviction notice and refuse to assist in getting the people out.

Good for him, I say

An elected official who cares about the people who elected him... What a concept!

I think we'll see more of these type stories as time progresses. I'm not of the opinion that this particular snowball can be stopped.

How would You do that? Wouldn't that be confidential info? What happens if it goes into foreclosure after the renters have been there for awhile? A civil trial? Where does the family go after being evicted from their home? A shelter? I think this guy rocks, legal or not. He's doing what I believe is morally right. These banks have no worry for the families involved, it's $ $ $. I hope when Karma comes around She gives Mr. Sheriff a big pat on the back.

Who looks after the little guys? We need to take it upon Ourselves to look after and protect one another. The blood sucking has to stop.


Peace. K*

It's great to see someone take a stand against the greed and inhumanity. But I am sure they will find other ways of getting the people out of their homes. It will probably get nasty too.

Not without changing the law. In Illinois everyone knows...Noone but the Sheriff can evict you from your home.

To go around it they'll have to remove the Sheriff, an elected official. I am not sure about the process of removing an elected official but it won't be easy considering the environment.

What I see is a standoff that the people will ultimately win. I think this is becoming pretty clear. In addition to this story, many mortgage companies are in negotiations with the attorneys general of several states, Illinois being one of them.

Keeping people in their homes is being fought on at least three levels of Government.
