If the bank owns it now, they are the landlord and any civil property violations run with the property and are owned by the bank. If the man is accused of crimes, that would not go to the bank. It is not clear what is happening. If a car got a parking ticket yesterday and then I bought the car today, I’d expect the previous owner to be liable for that ticket, not me.

Remember when cities used to be that place you lived in?
Affordable housing is only for loyal Dem voters!
Trash the place in Section 8 and you are rewarded with a new house.
This is not new. You have plenty of divorced people out there who are forbidden from homeschooling their children and controling them, and, yet, when the kid at the other end of the country does something wrong, he owes “child support”.
The government considers this guy a serf who lost ownership but not ties to his property. The government wants its money and control now and automatically. It’s retarded but this is what we get under communism and blocking others from doing business.
And argue i tell ye.. / Sheite!
I doubt if property codes have “evolved” to the point that family law has. It sounds like a screw-up of records that could be cleared in court without a whole lot of ado.
I thought he lost title when the lender foreclosed?
The one that has title is responsible.

I’ve had a municipality draft money out of a corporate account for taxes owed on a vehicle the company hadn’t owned for over a year before. The kicker is, the bank allowed it without informing me, and I had to prove The corporation no longer owned the vehicle.
There are lots of cases where the banks foreclose and evict the homeowner but never actually take title to the property.

If your car got repossessed but the bank doesn’t take your name off the title who’s responsible for the parking ticket when they leave it on the street?
I’ve heard of these cases too and that’s a whole nother ball of wax. But this isn’t what happened here. The bank did take title to the land. Now the question is, what does the law say about who is liable for what. It should be black and white.
The bank probably never foreclosed on it so it technically his. Just wait till he get the tax and HOA Bills the last 2 years.
Wow. That sucks.
I remember years and years ago when I was in court for a traffic ticket. there was a kid ahead of me, aged about 20 or so, and he got a fix it ticket for an expired license tag on a company vehicle a year before.
He told his employers about but they never took care of the problem and even though he left the comapny seven months before his court date, the judge threw him in jail for three days for failing to pay the fine and getting a new tag for the vehicle.
A couple years later, the state changed the law where the current owner now keeps the tags, when selling their car.
I agree.
If the bank never foreclosed the lawn bill is but part of what he will owe.
This story may be wrong and he may still own the home.
That it did. I moved the office and transferred registration to another county with no grabby asinine municipal jurisdiction because of it. The bank nearly got replaced, too.
