Lender forced to buy back loan from fannie mae

Lerner is a top executive with the IRS. Enough so that she was the lead person called before Congress.

Try and follow me here as I will repeat my explanation I offered earlier. The appraiser can LEGALLY and with full blessing from USPAP discard workfiles after 5 years. Lois Lerner destroyed e-mails and papertrails obviously trying to hide something even though she had a responsibility to save and back up that data. She was in the wrong, the appraiser is in the right but BOTH are using the same strategy and in the case of Lerner, at least as of today, it appears to have worked in her favor.

So the appraiser without a workfile will be skewered in court while a top IRS executive, obviously lying about computers crashing in order to hide data and being grilled on live tv by Congress, gets away free? Sounds odd to me.

Given your assumptions that its all a cover up and that extensive lying is going on makes me certain that I wouldn't want you on any jury involving my life, or any case involving an appraisal after I've destroyed the workfile.

She was Director of Exempt Organizations. The issue was with Exempt organizations. Thus the focus on her.

I'm more concerned with the specifics of the case and her high profile and the strategy used than her actual title. You win the medal, she was not head of the IRS but still in a much higher profile position than any appraiser sitting before a state board or in a courtroom ever will be.

And if you don't think there was a massive cover up and document dump you are on island all by yourself. Still, getting rid of data seems to have helped rather than hurt.
