Greetings:
PC has Feb 09 Loan Modification Agreement with Wamu:
Letter attached to Loan mod states "By signing the Agreement you acknowledge
that if you file a petition in bankruptcy, Washington Mutual, the Trust, or
anyone action on their behalf may elect to take any and all actions
necessary, including, but not limited to voiding the Agreement, filing a
Motion for relief from the automatic stay, a Motion to dismiss or any
permitted state law remedies which, in Washington Mutual's judgment, are
reasonably necessary to secure or protect the property and/or to enforce the
rights under the original terms of your loan."
The Agreement does not have any sort of language like this. The agreement
does not have an integration clause.
PC wants to file 13 to eliminate 2nd. Need your thoughts interpreting
language. Want to see if I have the right sense of things.
I have heard of nightmares flowing from a bankruptcy filing with similar
language. However, My interpretation of this language is that they are
stating that which is their legal right to do, however this cannot be
construed as a stipulation to allow the court to grant such motions for
relief, etc.
Anyone have different experience? Thank you for your comments or
suggestions.
