Third Year Anniversary Consumer BAPCPA Special Thursday, April 17, 2008 This is “Jeopardy” And the Game Board is Mortgages! The rise in securitization of mortgages and the substantial activity in the assignment of mortgage loans have generated great confusion and increasing case law. Jeopardy’s three “contestants” will choose from categories such as “Mortgage Holders,” “Mortgage Securitization,” “Note Holders,” “MERS,” “Servicers” and “Assignments.” Points will be awarded for answers to questions such as “how to determine who the correct parties are when assessing claims” “who to serve with motions for relief from automatic stay” and “who are the parties to adversary proceedings involving predatory lending claims.” Speakers Beat the Clock: Unscrambling the Deadlines and Limitations The game show “Beat the Clock” required contestants to perform wacky tasks in 60 seconds. In the second round, contestants were required to take scrambled words of a famous saying or quote and unscramble the phrase in 20 seconds or less. BAPCPA has inserted new provisions of the Code at §1308 which requires that chapter 13 Debtors be current on the filing of tax returns; meet various deadlines and jurisdictional thresholds. This segment will examine the case law and local practice when the tax returns are not filed by the date of the 341, when the debt is “over the ceiling” and when the threshold requirements are not satisfied.
