In the Supreme Court of Florida

No SC13-2384
ie re: Amendments to the Florida
Rules of Civil Procedure
Comments of Ronald Gillis
The undersigned is petitioning or Motioning this Court to Accept the Below
Comments as Timely and submit the following comments regarding the rule
changes apparently already in effect as follows:
Many aspects of these changes are no doubt in response the the so-called Fair
foreclosure bill HB87 passed by the Florida Legislature a couple of years ago. As
was testified to by the undersigned in these hearings, this bill has little to do with
the banks, although they are a benefactor of said bill, however, it was the title
companies that are attempting to shut the door on their inherent liability for the
frauds well known and as time goes on, more clear on the ponzi scheme
committed. With this knowledge, the Florida Legislature and now apparently the
Florida Supreme Court is attempting to legalize theft of property. No other
property in America, when taken by illegal measures, is not returned to the
previous owner, however, in the state of Florida, when taken by foreclosure, even
if false and fraudulent, as it is now well documented most foreclosures in Florida
are in fact false, it apparently is being ruled as acceptable to steal property in
Florida, as long as it is some entity that has a name which includes bank or
mortgage in its title.
While the undersigned has never felt the implementation of FRCP 1.110(b) and the
verification of foreclosure complaints was sufficient, at least it required the
plaintiff to verify the complaint. Then Shapiro & Fishman through an attorney
argued that was too difficult to do. Really, too difficult? No doubt difficult
because of the significant volume of fraudulent paperwork submitted as a course of
business for all these so-called banks, sorry, I meant mortgage companies, oh,
sorry again, I mean servicers, or whatever rotating and undisclosed title they call
themselves this month.
The undersigned attended the two sentencing hearings of Lorraine Brown,
formerly of DOCX in Federal Court in Jacksonville, FL a couple years ago. The
undersigned submitted a Motion to be Heard at the First sentencing attempt,
Page 1 of 4

however the judge denied the request and struck it from the record. Of note though
in those sentencing hearings, her attorney made statements admitting to Ms
Browns company committing filing a minimum of a million false documents on
public record, so there is no question of the volume of fraud being perpetrated.
Worse yet, her attorney further asked for leniency toward his client because, as he
stated she did the same thing the banks are doing on a regular basis. In the opinion
of the undersigned, that is not grounds for leniency, that is further grounds for
many more criminal prosecutions that all law enforcement at all levels is ignoring,
and that will be the downfall of this country. In all societies, the judiciary plays
one of the most significant roles, and is the backbone of any society. When
corrupted, society as a whole is corrupted and headed down a very bad path.
While there is much the undersigned can address in these changes, and no doubt
others will touch on many significant problems, however the one thing the
undersigned saw immediately, was the change from the plaintiff to the use of the
word claimant. In no other areas of law would such a watering down of rules be
even remotely acceptable. This is making the automatic assumption that the
claimant has the rights and grounds to bring the action, when it is well known with
numerous settlements, ongoing disclosures, and the like that no such grounds exists
in the vast majority of these cases. If the Supreme Court of Florida is going to
permit such actions, it is a complete destruction of the backbone of society in this
state and will only have negative effects for years to come.
While the undersigned does not wish to go into great lengths of his purported
foreclosure case, here, it is symptomatic of what is going on in the vast majority of
cases in this state. The purported complaint, which has never been amended to
date, was filed in a purported plaintiff name of Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas as Trustee, by attorney Andrew Lee Fivecoat Florida Bar 122068. There
is no trust name specified in this purported complaint. Not only that, there was no
purported note attached to said purported complaint. Again, this has never been
amended since filing of the purported complaint in 2008, and more than sufficient
grounds for dismissal of the case which all said requests to dismiss have been
denied to date. As disgusting as that is, eighteen months into the case, over
objections of the undersigned, the case style heading was changed (without
conforming to any rules of court) to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as
Trustee for GMAC-RFC Master Servicing. Again, besides numerous complaints
from the undersigned addressing the failure to have justification for this change,
the undersigned pointed out no master servicers in the entire country own any
Page 2 of 4

mortgages or notes in the entire country, and furthermore is not that name of any
trust. Several years later, in June 2012, this purported entity submitted an affidavit
under penalty of perjury that it knew it was wrong and not a valid plaintiff, yet it
wanted to continue the case, and to date said complaint has still not been
voluntarily dismissed or by ruling of the court. See Charlotte County Official
Records Book/Page 3692/2042 through 2072, but specifically pages 2054 to 2056.
Also see Nye Leval's 2013 report, You Can't Trust the Mortgage Paper Trail
where he gives a very thorough breakdown on how improper the statements in this
affidavit are on page 31 to 33 of his report. As blatantly wrong as this is, in the
current Federal Court case associated with this state case, in Fort Myers, the one
attorney stated in three different case filings, GMAC-RFC Master Servicer does
not exist. So now it is shown to not only be wrong, but non-existent. Yet not only
has this wrong and now known to be non-existent entity carried on the case for
years mostly by pleadings filed by attorney Erin Mae Rose Quinn Florida Bar
64446. Then, according to his statements in court on January 06, 2015, attorney
James Lewis Goetz Florida Bar 153865 purports to be hired by this non-existent
entity, but failed to show receipt of retainer by a client-in-fact, proof of payment
for services by any client-in-fact, client consent agreement of who purports to have
hired him and liability insurance information requested by the undersigned. The
Courts across Florida say they do not want to hear the f-word yet that is exactly
what this and many cases are throughout Florida, a fraud before the courts. Again,
while these are specifics to the purported case of the undersigned, this is systematic
of how things are conducted in fraudclosure courts across Florida, and each of the
the three branches are responsible to put a stop to such conduct. This is especially
true of the judiciary with it being the backbone of a society. By making changes
accepting on its face to permit a claimant as opposed to plaintiff, which do not
always match, is a breakdown of the responsibilities of the judiciary in this state.
The undersigned has witnessed things like this throughout numerous circuits and
county courtrooms in Florida. Does the Florida Supreme Court really condone
such conduct and have such little regard for both the Florida and US Constitutions
that you took, or should have taken an oath to support and defend? Are attorneys
in this state going to continue to get a green light to file whatever paperwork in
case files and in public record, no matter the validity? Who is taking issue with
these known frauds and falsifications? The undersigned hopes the Florida
Supreme Court does, as it will be imperative for generations to come.
