In reality I would have thought that their Lawyer would have been on top of this also. I do believe however, that even if the Peterson's went ahead and encumbered the property, that there is still legal remedy for recovering what they had no business taking. Especially if Snotty is convicted in the criminal trial, I assume he will be responsible for costs and I assume he would LOSE all assets. Jackie and Lee Peterson may find themselves "owing" the Rocha's a considerable amount. I wouldn't mind seeing the Peterson's pushed into bankruptcy. They might as well be financially bankrupt along with the fact that they are morally bankrupt. !!

Thanks, CO, I do agree that Sharon's lawyer should have known about any lien filings on the SP/Laci property. And I think you're correct about a legal remedy--especially if Scott is convicted. Now, we just have to worry about the "change of venue" MG is going to be requesting. Sounds like Stanislaus wants to "bus in" jurors, doesn't it? But if the judge rules for "busing", can't MG appeal that decision? If so, in the scheme of things, I would think he would. This could go on forever. (loonnnnggg ssiiiiigh)

Here's an article on the Deed of Trust doings. Notice how the existing mortgage is ignored. The $100,000. lien put on the property is in addition to the existing mortgage, which is likely in excess of $150,000. It looks like there may be some attempt to say that the Petersons are just liening less than half the value of the property. That, of course, is bunk when the existing mortgage is figured in.
