An important court of appeal's decision was released today, 1/16/14.

CapitalSource fbo Aeon Financial LLC - Tax Lien THIEVES -  had a case dismissed by the court of appeals.

CapitalSource Bank  failed to register with the Ohio Secretary of State as a foreign company doing business in Ohio; therefore the courts lack jurisdiction to hear the foreclosure cases.

The courts do NOT and NEVER HAD jurisdiction over any of the foreclosures filed by these thieves.

Two views of West Side’s Jefferson Park – a few days apart in the winter of 2014 with temperature varying from a low of –11 deg. F to a high of +43 deg F in five days.

 It is inconcievable to me that Gov. Christie was not in the loop.  

Come on.  One of the best "practical jokes" I have ever heard of...

Lane closures to teach the unsupportive mayor.   

Practical jokes don't go undiscussed...that's the fun part...backslapping each other and snorting in laughter about the practical joke. 

We had practical jokes at work - everyone knew about the jokes, including the management.

Fortune Magazine recently predicted that the market in NEO - will make Cleveland the "next" Brooklyn - break out real estate.

No buildings higher than two stories, streets are cobblestones. McDonald's had to conform, and their restaurant here (more expensive than US I guess, close to $5 for a Big Mac, although it sells as a combo with fries and soft drink.

When you live the shopping cart lifestyle, you don't need to remember your front door key when you leave your cart. 

You don't need to worry about rent either.   Just find a park or some public property and your life's belongings are probably going to be alright for a few hours.  

In America you have a lot of options on how to live!

“I cannot imagine a more ‘indiscriminate’ and ‘arbitrary invasion’ than this systematic and high-tech collection and retention of personal data on virtually every single citizen for purposes of querying it and analyzing it without judicial approval,” wrote Leon, an appointee of President George W.

In Ohio recycling beer and beverage containers is light work - because in Ohio  aluminum cans are only recovered for their weight as aluminum.  In other states recycling is done to recover the five cent or 10 cent "deposit" per beverage container - whether the container is aluminum or glass.     This means that  the can man's load is a lot heavier out of Ohio than in Ohio.

 Here is another Washington Post link to peruse.

Realneo thanks all it's reporters and supporters for their heartfelt contributions!

And thanks to Michael Sallah and crew and the Washington Post investigative staff, for their journalism efforts to expose the tax lien problems across the USA. 

 The thieves want to dump their property on county taxpayers so we can foot the bill for their demolitions AND for the tens of thousands they owe in delinquent property taxes.

The thieves force folks from their homes for delinquent property taxes,  they don't pay their own property taxes, and then expect taxpayers to bail them out after they have made millions here.

Meanwhile, thousands of people have been victimized by these sorry ass thieves, and they LOST THEIR HOMES.
