MAY 4, 2020 | REPUBLISHED BY LIT: SEP 18, 2021
Sept 18, 2021: As it stands, the motion to dismiss by Deutsche Bank was granted in part and denied in part in an order dated June 16 and after some more briefing, on September 1, 2021, the case has been referred to the Magistrate Judge acting as mediator with a view to settlement.

“Incredibly, sometime in January 2017, defendant Altisource for Deutsche contacted Pepco Electric and had the power company change the account into the name of Altisource. Plaintiffs learned after contacting the utility supplier that Altisource established an account with the power company, giving false information that the property was vacant and “bank-owned”, despite the ongoing physical occupation by plaintiffs as their primary residence since 2006.”
