Dayna Donovan was in for a surprise when she learned two strangers had been living in her Littleton, Colo., home for eight months. They still haven't moved out despite a judge's ruling they had to be out by the weekend.
On Thursday, a judge in Arapahoe County ruled that Veronica Fernandez-Beleta and Jose Rafael Leyva-Caraveo, the two people who were living in the home, had to move out by Saturday morning. But as of Monday evening, Donovan, 43, said the two were still there.

Where the hell is the sheriff ?
The Donovans are Deadbeats as they have not made a mortgage payment in 13 months.
The bank needs to foreclose on the house and send the Donovans and the current “tenants” on their way.
The house next to me had this same thing happen. The courts did bring felony charges against those that are doing this, but we need to change State law. There need not be an eviction oder but simple arrest and removal for any squatter whereby the propertyowner will swear out a complaint that the squatters do not have lawful possesion.
until the final sale and transfer of title, the owners of record own the home.
A fraud in the inception. No clear title, no ownership right, no interest passed at all.
This judge is an idiot and ignorant for allowing this to go this far. It should be refered as a criminal tresspass and the police are lazy SOBs for ducking their jobs by calling this a civil matter.

Hopefully, the bank will foreclose on the house and sell the house to some hardworking upstanding citizens who will have to decency to pay for the house.
I’d think they’d wake up in the middle of the night and get dead..
zero. it is not foclosed and title has not passed via a sale.
The fact they are behind does not matter one iota. It does not diminish the tresspass.
No one. Even an illegal idiot peon from whatever south american sh!thole he comes, can honestly think buying such a house for $5000 is legitimate. The lawyers know this, the authorities know this. It is theft, pure and simple, and they had better take shifts.
No one. Even an illegal idiot peon from whatever south american sh!thole he comes, can honestly think that one can go 13 months without making a mortgage payment and not expect the bank to foreclose.
“The owners are $20,000 behind in mortgage payments on the house and left the state when they were 2 payments behind.”
So this is really a relevant case for our time. What we don’t know is who’s squatters rights are subordinate to whom.
Are there exclusive recycling rights to the copper piping? Is there revenue sharing in selling the fixtures and appliances in the house? Do the EITC checks and EBT cards that arrive at the house mailbox constitute community property?
These are questions that need to be answered.
Payment on a loan, when/where/how, really isn’t the point. Record - owner of record. Liability, responsibility are still the homeowners’ until the bank/foreclosure has cleared.
Complications aside, I maintain, the illegal peons knew what they were doing. One has nothing to do with the other. One is a matter of private business, and the other is knowing fraud.
From all appearances, they abandoned the property. I really don’t have a lot of sympathy for them. The occupiers are probably lying about giving somebody $5K, but that’s a smart lie because it kicks it out of criminal court.
The Donovan family is doing nothing more than rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic as if they cannot currently pay for gas to get to work, they are likely not to come up with the 20k they owe the bank.
The bank will take to house and will get the squatters out of there.
problem is they never went to county tax offices to record
the changes.. (major lawsuit in Texas for lost fees)
there are about 10% of mortgages that are clouded..
they are repossessing on homes that are current and people who have paid off their homes

This has happened fairly often in Detroit with foreclosed properties. Sometimes a couple years go by with the squatter getting utilities turned on and generally maintaining the property. In D town this sort of squatter has been providing a useful service. These damp Americans look to be just spongers.
That’s okay.....it is the circle of business life. The real win here would be that the thieves who thought they could buy the whole mess for $5K are thwarted. If they are illegal, they shouldn’t be here in the first place.
