Oakland appraisal dispute settlement

These discrimination cases are fraud. It’s an abuse of the court. The Maryland law suit has over $3,000,000 in legal fees to defend a $500 appraisal fee. A sociologist studies group behavior and can not testify and claim a persons behavior is the result if a group behavior. The civil rights lawyer has filed a bogus case. The appraisers defense attorney and appraisers are not up to date as no one defended the process as not violating any one’s civil rights. Any one appraisal does not deny a person their civil rights and thus there is no case. Dr. Howard was paid $75,000 in the Maryland case. She is a sociologist and a study of population data is not evidence of an appraisers actions. A psychologist would be the expert witness.

Dr Korver Glenn is at UNC. The acredidation for UNc had instructed me to file a complaint against UNC under Rule 6.2a about professor qualifications. The point is her research is not legitimate to accuse appprausers or brokers of racism. She has no appraisal knowledge, education or data. She can’t do an appraisal. She is in fact in violation of state and federal mandated appraisal regulations making false statements about appraisers. The solution is file a complaint against all these professors and the universities. The universities are liable for the professors actions as it part of their employment contract. The lawyers are violating civil rights law. Disparate Impact is policy. Has no place in USPAP. The lawyers suing the Maryland appraiser changed USPAP. Sound unethical for the same lawyer to bill $3,000,000 to prosecute and appraiser based on a sociologists unqualified research. She has no appraisal education, no access to MLS or ever done an appraisal. We all need to ask who paid the $3,000,000. They are the source of this. And the legal accountability will be a class action law suit by the 300 appraisers who have been affected.
 
appraisers do not approve or deny loans...what a bunch of fools...i cant believe E&O rolled over for this garbage oh yes i can :rof:
 
It's good that some lenders are getting rid of bias appraisers from their panel.
Who judges "bias" and in what form? No lender is going to ID someone with "bias" until that appraiser is charged with bias by the authorities and an in-depth review of the report is rarely available to actually determine if such charge has 'legs.'

It was like a historian's assessment of the fate of Toledo (Spain) by conquest of the Moslems then Christians under El Cid. He fought for the Moslems for 10 years before switching allegiances to the Christian king. Conquering Valencia and recapturing Toledo as some sort of battle against the intractable Moors when as the historian noted they were so mixed bunch this was more a negotiation of words than swords. "How intractable can you be with your mother-in-law?" James Burked asked.
 
The perception of guilt works with a liberal jury.
 
there was no jury...no reading of rights...just a kangaroo court equipped with a make believe judge and a real executioner :rof:
 

Besides pumping trillions of dollars into low-income housing programs, the government aggressively went after banks it considered to be discriminatory. “The Clinton administration,” the Economist reported on Aug. 30, 1997, “clearly smells racism in the lending process.” According to the article, the Department of Justice’s “tough enforcement of anti-discrimination laws” prompted lending institutions to fight back in order to clear their names. Banks defended themselves by pointing to the sharp increase in black homeownership. Indeed, a number of banks were putting themselves at great risk, the article pointed out, by making loans to minority applicants with dodgy credit ratings.
