Mr. Bookout:

You have been informed countless times that SBA cannot answer your questions relating to your dealings with Santa Barbara Bank & Trust or Union Bank- your repetitive emails will not change that fact so it will be much appreciated if you will refrain from sending similar emails to this Agency in the future.

Dear Mr. Carlos Mendoza/SBA Obudsman

 

Union Bank successor to SBB&T, has without the involvement of Santa Barbara Mediator, Lol Sorensen, falsified SBA Loan accounting in Union Banks, Diana Jessup Lee May 6, 2011 Accounting and Amortization Schedules as seen at www.governorjerrybrown.net  --- www.unionbank.me and above.  Please review Mr. Lol Sorensen’s February 19, 2013 email response below!  I am requesting a full Small Business Administration, SBA PLP Loan investigation and accounting into Union Banks claim that their amortization schedules are more accurate then IRS 1098 Forms or SBA 1149 Forms with the SBB&T May 19, 2011 NOD from the two SBB&T May 6, 2011 Amortization Schedules created by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust!

 

Union Bank successor to SBB&T has ignored SBA 1149 accounting and IRS 1098 forms and stated in their (Diana Jessup Lee) SBA loan Representative’s May 6, 2011 letter?:  “In the process of creating Schedule 1, some relatively minor differences of opinion developed regarding how to interpret and apply the terms of the Forbearance Agreement.  As part of the mediation and compromise process, we decided to prepare a second schedule, “Schedule 2,” which extends every possible advantage to you, even if not consistent with the terms of your SBA loan or computerized software that tracks loans.”

 

Again, I am asking for a full investigation from the Small Business Administration in Union Bank successor to SBB&T, SBA Loan Fraud and Breach of Contract since 2003 and that all questions asked below on February 8, 2013 and again on February 14, 2013 of Union Bank are now answered by the United States Small Business Administration!  Both, Union Bank SBA loan Representatives Diana Jessup Lee and Robert B. Forouzandeh continue to ignore SBA 1149 Forms and IRS 1098 Forms from 2007-2010 showing Union Bank successor to SBB&T fraudulent accounting per the SBB&T May 19, 2011 NOD and the two May 6, 2011 Amortization Schedules that Union Bank now again on January 24, 2013 states: :  As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?”  

 

US Small Business Administration, Please review the February 13, 2013 email below from Union Banks SBA loan representative, Robert B. Forouzandeh Stating:  “I am compiling answers to questions in your recent email to my office.  Once I have gathered all necessary information, I will respond further.”  The US Small Business Administration now needs to see that the 48 question asked of Union Bank on February 14, 2013 are fully answered and that Union Bank is not using (Amortization Schedules) as official SBA loan bank documents over IRS 1098 forms or SBA 1149 accounting with other SBA loan customers!

 

The Santa Barbara Superior Court (Denise Motter) per the request of Union Banks Vice President Christine Sontag, will only allow Union Bank SBA PLP loan questions to be asked of Robert B. Forouzandeh and Diana Jessup Lee; making it necessary for the US Small Business Administration to answer the 48 questions asked below of Union Bank on February 14, 2013!  

 

US Small Business Administration, I am requesting an accounting from the US Small Business Administration, of Union Banks charge of $39,750.00 to fix up the Oceano Nursery SBA PLP loaned property from the Appraisal of $265,000.00 and that this money is returned with interest as seen in Exhibit A-22 along with the Union Bank charge of $26,500.00 (10% standard deduction by the bank on all foreclosures).   I am requesting an accounting from the US Small Business Administration, per Union Banks Attorney fees of $57,676.17 for asking SBA PLP Loan Questions of Union Bank successor to SBB&T per their May 6, 2011 Amortization Schedules and May 19, 2011 NOD!   US Small Business Administration, Please review Union Banks emails below from January 25, 2011 to February 13, 2013 showing SBA Loan Fraud and Breach of Contract by Union Bank!

Dear Mr. Sorensen,

 

In the Diana Jessup Lee May 6, 2011 Union Bank/SBBT accounting and Amortization Schedules as seen at www.governorjerrybrown.net --- www.unionbank.me and above.  Did you as the Mediator have any involvement in the creation of these two Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Amortization Schedules as Diana Jessup Lee States in her May 6, 2011 letter?:  “In the process of creating Schedule 1, some relatively minor differences of opinion developed regarding how to interpret and apply the terms of the Forbearance Agreement.  As part of the mediation and compromise process, we decided to prepare a second schedule, “Schedule 2,” which extends every possible advantage to you, even if not consistent with the terms of your SBA loan or computerized software that tracks loans.”

 

The questions below of Union Bank on February 8, 2013 and February 14, 2013 will now have to be answered by Union Bank.  Diana Jessup Lee has stated January 24, 2013 in her exhibit (G) as presented to Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter:  As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?”  

 

Again was the creation of these two amortizations schedules part of the (Mediation Process) with you on April 27, 2011 and did you help in anyway in creating these Amortization Schedules as Diana Jessup Lee has stated in her May 6, 2011 letter? “As part of the mediation and compromise process, we decided to prepare a second schedule, “Schedule 2,”?   It is now very important to know who Diana Jessup Lee is referring to as “WE”

 

Sincerely

 

Bill Bookout

Robert Forouzandeh Stated January 28, 2013!  “MR. FOROUZANDEH: Your Honor, the $57,000 in attorney's fees had very little to nothing to do with the prior restraining order. That matter has been adjudicated in front of the bankruptcy court. That's all been resolved. There was no request for attorney's fees, either in our last petition before you or this present petition before you. As to the questions, Mr. Bookout, yes, he is correct. He's contacted the CEO of Union Bank asking questions about his loan. That e-mail was forwarded to us. We immediately contacted Mr. Bookout and asked him to direct all of his questions pertaining to his loan through our office and when he CC's the other official, we again respond and say, "Mr. Bookout, here are the answers to your questions, but please stop e-mailing everybody in the organization."

 

Diana Jessup Lee/ Union Bank successor to SBB&T,  I am requesting an accounting of Union Banks charge of $39,750.00 and that this money is returned with interest as seen in Exhibit A-22 along with the Union Bank charge of $26,500.00 (10% standard deduction by the bank on all foreclosures)  Union Bank as the lender, holds the primary responsibility for keeping accurate records. See, In re Parrish, 326 B.R. 708, 721 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 2005), and In re Jacobson, 5 B.R. 274, 277 (Bankr. D.S.D. 1980).  See Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Jones (In re Jones), 439 Fed.Appx. 330 (5th Cir. 2011).  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Stewart (In re Stewart), 647 F.3d 553 (5th Cir. 2011).  See, e.g., In re Henry, 266 B.R. 457, 480 (Bankr. C.D.Cal. 2001)(Awarding interest in addition to compensatory damages under 362(h)).

 

Diana Jessup Lee, If Union Bank successor to SBB&T, has any documents (IRS 1098 Forms) to back up the May 6, 2011 amortization schedule as you (Diana Jessup Lee) have stated January 24, 2013: Then please provide these Union Bank successor to SBB&T documents as you have stated for Union Bank on January 24, 2013!      As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?  If you believe my explanations are wrong, please state precisely why and explain your conclusion as opposed to simply asserting false conclusory statements.” 

 

Diana Jessup Lee/ Union Bank successor to SBB&T,  Again answer the 48 Questions asked above of Union Bank!   The attached, Union Bank SBA loan documents, show Union Bank successor to SBB&T (IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and a September 13, 2010 SBA Form 1149 as presented at Mediation with Lol Sorensen by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust.  Please answer the question above and below of Union Bank from these Union Bank successor to SBB&T documents!  Please also provide your response to Elizabeth F. Rojas Chapter 13 Trustee Fax (818) 933-5755.  Attached are Union Bank successor to SBB&T emails from January 25, 2011 to February 13, 2013 showing Union Banks SBA loan Fraud and Breach of Contract!

Diana Jessup Lee/ Union Bank successor to SBB&T, I am asking for a full accounting of Union Banks Attorney fees as “Bankruptcy Rule 2016(a) mandates that “an entity seeking compensation for services or reimbursement for expenses shall file an application setting forth a detailed statement of (1) the services rendered, time expended and expenses incurred, and (2) the amounts requested.”41”  Union Bank charged $57,676.17 by Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP in Exhibit B-23 (Case No. ND11-15818RR). Union Bank in front of Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denis Motter has claimed that this $57,676.17 in Attorney Fees had nothing to do with the questions asked of Union bank as stated by Robert Forouzandeh January 28, 2013!    

Robert Forouzandeh Stated!  “MR. FOROUZANDEH: Your Honor, the $57,000 in attorney's fees had very little to nothing to do with the prior restraining order. That matter has been adjudicated in front of the bankruptcy court. That's all been resolved. There was no request for attorney's fees, either in our last petition before you or this present petition before you. As to the questions, Mr. Bookout, yes, he is correct. He's contacted the CEO of Union Bank asking questions about his loan. That e-mail was forwarded to us. We immediately contacted Mr. Bookout and asked him to direct all of his questions pertaining to his loan through our office and when he CC's the other official, we again respond and say, "Mr. Bookout, here are the answers to your questions, but please stop e-mailing everybody in the organization."

Diana Jessup Lee/ Union Bank successor to SBB&T,  Again answer the 46 Questions asked above of Union Bank!

 

Diana Jessup Lee/ Union Bank successor to SBB&T,  I am requesting an accounting of Union Banks charge of $39,750.00 and that this money is returned with interest as seen in Exhibit A-22 along with the Union Bank charge of $26,500.00 (10% standard deduction by the bank on all foreclosures)  Union Bank as the lender, holds the primary responsibility for keeping accurate records. See, In re Parrish, 326 B.R. 708, 721 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 2005), and In re Jacobson, 5 B.R. 274, 277 (Bankr. D.S.D. 1980).  See Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Jones (In re Jones), 439 Fed.Appx. 330 (5th Cir. 2011).  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Stewart (In re Stewart), 647 F.3d 553 (5th Cir. 2011).  See, e.g., In re Henry, 266 B.R. 457, 480 (Bankr. C.D.Cal. 2001)(Awarding interest in addition to compensatory damages under 362(h)).

 

Diana Jessup Lee, If Union Bank successor to SBB&T, has any documents to back up the May 6, 2011 amortization schedule as you (Diana Jessup Lee) have stated January 24, 2011: Then please provide these Union Bank successor to SBB&T documents as you state!      “As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?  If you believe my explanations are wrong, please state precisely why and explain your conclusion as opposed to simply asserting false conclusory statements.”

Riblet and Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter?   

5)     Can a California Bank in a May 19, 2011 NOD falsely claim $45,171.20 owed Union Bank Successor to SBB&T against their own IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and Santa Barbara Bank & Trusts August 29, 2011 SBA Form 1149 as seen at www.governorjerrybrown.net ?

6)     Are California Banks now allowed to charge interest on unpaid principal as claimed with Union Bank Successor to SBB&T May 19, 2011 NOD claim of both Principal and interest of $45,171.20 owed against the June 30, 2011 Comptroller of Currency Findings?

Grant March 30, 2012 Case 9:11-bk-15818-RR, response from Union Bank Successor to SBB&T at www.governorjerrybrown.net .Karen L. Grant charged $15,922.92 for her fraudulent statements to Bankruptcy Judge Robin L. Riblet as seen in  Karen L. Grant March 30, 2012 Case 9:11-bk-15818-RR, response!

California Governor Jerry Brown.  Union Bank Successor to SBB&T has again falsely stated January 24, 2013 as presented to Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner, Denise MotterAs I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?”    The Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Banks has investigated Santa Barbara Bank & Trust and found in the OCC letter on June 30, 2011 at www.governorjerrybrown.net Santa Barbara Bank & Trust not applying any principal as seen in Santa Barbara Bank & Trusts IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010.   How are Union Bank Successor to SBB&T fraudulent loan actions legal in California?  Please review the emails below from  Union Bank successor to SBB&T going back to January 25, 2011.  Union Banks Schedule 2 does not exist per IRS 1098 Forms!  

 

California Governor Jerry Brown.  Again, please provide this information to the California State Attorney General, Kamala D. Harris /California State Bar and see that the questions asked below on January 24th 25th and 27th of Union Bank are answered by Union Bank as presented to Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter, on January 28, 2013.  The Santa Barbara District Attorney Office has stated December 13, 2012  As we discussed the District Attorney’s Office is not the primary investigative agency for these types of situations.  My recommendation would be to make a referral to the appropriate regulatory agency for your type of loan, if they determine that there is any inappropriate criminal action by the lending institution they can investigate and make a referral to the appropriate jurisdiction..”        

 

California Governor Jerry Brown, I believe the appropriate regulatory agency begins with the California State Attorney General Kamala D. Harris/California State Bar and your Office.     Union Banks successor to SBB&T Attorney charges of $73,5999.09 for asking for an accounting of a SBA loan, should be accounted for with the Union Bank January 24, 2013 email/Accounting from  Diana Jessup Lee, Esq. California State Bar # 155191!  Attached are Union Banks, Attorneys Diana Jessup Lee and Robert B. Forouzandeh emails from May 31, 2011 to January 24, 2013 including an email from SBB&T Attorney George C. Lazar on January 25, 2011. Each of these Emails go against the June 30, 2011 Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Bank letter and Union Banks own IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010  at www.governorjerrybrown.net

The attached Exhibits are Union Bank documents, showing Union Bank/ Santa Barbara Bank & Trust (IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and a September 13, 2010 SBA Form 1149 as presented at Mediation with Lol Sorensen by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust.   These documents are against Union Banks Vice President, Christine Sontag’s January 24, 2013 Second Set of Supplemental Exhibits; Motion to Modify a Restraining order for asking SBA PLP Loan questions of Union Bank from the Declaration of Robert B. Forouzandeh.   Each document presented by Union Bank on January 24, 2013 asks for an SBA loan accounting, from Union Bank/SBBT’s May 19, 2011 NOD, May 6, 2011 and May 19, 2011 letters written by Diana Jessup Lee, Esq.  California State Bar # 155191.  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v.

Union Bank in their Exhibit F. provides to the Santa Barbara Superior Court on January 24, 2013.  Union Banks (Payment Notices 2006-2007)  Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Banks June 30, 2011 findings, December 20, 2011 FOIA Documents with letters written by Pacific Capital Bank, Union Banks SBA Forms 1149 documents dated May 30, 2008, September 13, 2010 and August 29, 2011.  April 2, 2012 letter written to Robert Forouzandeh by the Law Offices of Chris Gautschi per the Oceano Nursery inventory, Pacific Capital Banks May 15, 2007 letter written by Vice President Sandra Sheffield followed by Pacific Capital Banks May 17, 2007 foreclosure letter and actions!  Union Bank in their Exhibit F.

Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter.  Please see that the questions asked below January 24, 2013 and January 25, 2013 of Union Bank are answered with these Union Bank documents showing Union Banks SBA loan Fraud as recently as January 24, 2013, per the statements from Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP!   Union Bank on January 24, 2013 claims that their May 19, 2011 and May 6, 2011 SBBT letters are accurate against IRS Forms 1098 and the September 13, 2010 SBA Form 1149 as presented at Mediation with Lol Sorensen by SBBT.  Union Bank in their January 24, 2013 Exhibit F. have provided the Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Banks June 30, 2011 findings, showing Union Banks May 6, 2011 letter (amortization schedule) and May 19, 2011 NOD to be fraudulent!  Union Bank in the June 30 2011 OCC letter is found talking about the Restraining order filed with the Santa Barbara Superior Court on June 3, 2011 and that Ms. Diana J. Lee had been hired as counsel.  The OCC found that SBBT/Union Bank did not apply any principal from the five payments totaling $22,274.46 and that extra principal payments paid SBBT were applied to only interest. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Jones (In re Jones), 439 Fed.Appx. 330 (5th Cir. 2011).  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Stewart (In re Stewart), 647 F.3d 553 (5th Cir. 2011).

 

Union Bank in their December 21, 2012 Declaration to the Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter, falsely claim:  “In an effort to dissuade Bookout from continuing his harassment, Mrs. Lee again answered the four main questions Bookout continually asked over and over in his many communications.  A True and correct copy of the May 19, 2011 letter is attached as Exhibit F to the Original Request and incorporated herein.” 

 

Union Bank has stated January 24, 2013 against Exhibits 6 and 10 as previously presented to Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner, Denise Motter:  As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?”  

 

Union Bank States in their closing argument on January 24, 2013:  “It must be noted that in some of Bookout’s emails he attaches an email from Union Banks council in which all of his questions were answered.” 

“Exhibit G Consists of the two emails from Diana Jessup Lee, counsel for Union Bank, to Bookout between January 8, 2013 and January 23, 2013.  These are the two most recent emails in which Ms. Lee answers Bookout’s questions pertaining to his loan.”

 

Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter.  The Statements by Union Bank representatives on December 21, 2012 and January 24, 2013 are again Fraudulent!  Union Bank has not answered the SBA loan questions asked of Union Bank as seen in the December 31, 2007 IRS Form 1098 and Union Banks 2008, 2010 and 2011 SBA Form 1149.  Attached as Exhibits are 55 Union Bank documents showing the fraudulent answers from Diana Jessup Lee on January 8, 2013 and January 24, 2013.

 

I am asking for full compensation of all Union Bank/ Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Attorney Fees charged by Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP and Karen L. Grant along with Richard Rossi of $7,6125.00 due to the Union Bank Vice President Christine Sontag retaliatory actions after asking SBA loan questions of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust/Union Bank.  I am asking with the fraudulent answers from Diana Jessup Lee on January 8, 2013 and January 24, 2013; that the current restraining order be removed and that a Union Bank representative is designated to answer Union Bank SBA PLP loan questions!  I ask that this communication be provided to Judge Robin L. Riblet and Elizabeth F. Rojas, Chapter 13 Trustee.

 

I am asking for a full accounting of Union Banks Attorney fees as “Bankruptcy Rule 2016(a) mandates that “an entity seeking compensation for services or reimbursement for expenses shall file an application setting forth a detailed statement of (1) the services rendered, time expended and expenses incurred, and (2) the amounts requested.”41”  Union Bank charged $57,676.17 by Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP as seen attached in Exhibit B-23 (Case No. ND11-15818RR).  I am requesting an accounting of Union Banks charge of $39,750.00 and that this money is returned with interest as seen in Exhibit A-22 along with the Union Bank charge of $26,500.00 (10% standard deduction by the bank on all foreclosures)  Union Bank as the lender, holds the primary responsibility for keeping accurate records. See, In re Parrish, 326 B.R. 708, 721 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 2005), and In re Jacobson, 5 B.R. 274, 277 (Bankr. D.S.D. 1980).  See Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v.

Dear Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner Denise Motter, Union Bank President & Chief Executive Officer Masashi Oka, Simon Bonilla, Daniel Weidman, Thomas Taggart and Diana Jessup Lee,

 

In Response Union Banks Vice President Christine Sontag’s January 24, 2013 Motion to Modify a Restraining order for asking SBA Loan questions of Union Bank.  Please see that the questions asked below January 24, 2013 and January 25, 2013 of Union Bank are answered! 

 

Union Bank claims on January 24, 2013 against all (IRS Forms 1098 from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and Mediation SBA Forms 1149) Union Bank States:  “It must be noted that in some of Bookout’s emails he attaches an email from Union Banks council in which all of his questions were answered.”  This is not the case and is why the questions asked again on January 24, 2013 and January 25, 2013 must be answered by Union Bank!

Union Bank has stated January 24, 2013 against Exhibits 6 and 10 as presented to Santa Barbara Superior Court Commissioner, Denise Motter:  As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?”   Union Banks June 6, 2011 Exhibit E. (CH-100) Applies no principal as claimed by Diana Jessup Lee again on January 24, 2013!  Union Banks Exhibit E.

Union Bank/SBBT States June 29, 2011 against Santa Barbara Bank & Trusts 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 IRS Form 1098:  “The two amortization schedules enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter were created by SBBT based on the terms of your original loan, the forbearance agreement, and your payment history.  Your request for additional computerized documents makes no sense.”

 “I will check on the 2007 Form 1098 and see if it should be amended to reflect that you paid less in interest.”

Mr. Bookout:

 

As I have done on numerous occasions, I direct you to Schedule 2 which was attached to my May 6, 2011 letter to you as well as my letter to you dated May 19, 2011 in which I explain that your $22,274.46 payment in July, 2007 was applied to satisfy your monthly  principal and interest payments due for May, June, July, August and September, 2006 which you had failed to pay.  The reduction in principal on your loan after application of this payment is confirmed in Schedule 2.  Why do you keep asking the same question?  If you believe my explanations are wrong, please state precisely why and explain your conclusion as opposed to simply asserting false conclusory statements. 

 

Again, please limit your correspondences to either me or Robert Forouzandeh and stop harassing Union Bank personnel who are not responsible for responding to your questions which contain hundreds of pages of emails that repeat ad nauseam your unfounded accusations and questions.

Subject: RE: Union Bank SBA PLP Loan Fraud as presented by Union Bank to the Santa Barbara Superior Court. Case # 1381216

 

Mr. Bookout:

 

This email is in response to your email sent to me on January 7, 2013 at approximately 8:38 am.  I repeat the demand previously made by Robert Forouzandeh of my office that you cease contacting any Union Bank officers or employees pertaining to your SBA loan since their only involvement is as the successors to the Santa Barbara Bank & Trust (“SBBT”) personnel you have been ordered not to contact. 

 

As to the questions posed in your email, although both Mr. Forouzandeh and I have answered each of them on multiple prior occasions, I will do so again on behalf of Union Bank. 

 

1.       You ask about my “SBA loan training and knowledge…”  Both Mr. Forouzandeh and I have access to all necessary information pertaining to your SBA loan, and we are authorized by Union Bank to answer your questions.

2.       You ask for the “amount of inventory sold by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust/Union Bank with the sale of the Oceano Nursery Inventory.”  The answer is none.  On April 2, 2012, Mr. Forouzandeh wrote your attorney Mr. Gautschi stating that Santa Barbara Bank & Trust (“SBBT”) did not foreclose on any of the Oceano Nursery inventory, and that the foreclosure was limited to the real property.  The only “inventory” left at the Oceano property after the Trustees Sale was landscape rock.  In that same correspondence, Mr. Forouzandeh stated that you were free to pick up the landscape rock at any time and that if you failed to do so within a reasonable timeframe the landscape rock would be deem abandoned at which point SBBT would proceed to hire a hauling company to come to the property to remove the rocks.  Your reference to a 2007 Inventory Opinion Letter is misplaced since no inventory was foreclosed.  Furthermore, since the real property was not foreclosed until February 2012, the value and amount of inventory in 2007 is irrelevant. 

3.       You ask why SBBT/Union Bank “claimed…attorneys fees of $57,676.17…”   As we have previously stated, the note for your SBA loan specifically permits SBBT to charge you for the attorneys fees and costs incurred as a result of your default of the note, including those incurred in bankruptcy proceedings.  You defaulted on both the Note and then on the Forbearance Agreement.  On both occasions, you bombarded the bank’s attorneys and employees with duplicative and voluminous correspondences and false allegations which resulted in significant fees being incurred.  You then filed bankruptcy which resulted in SBBT incurring additional attorneys’ fees and costs to protect its position in the Bankruptcy.  Thus, not only is this amount permitted by the terms of your SBA loan, the amount is reasonable in light of your actions.

4.       You ask how SBBT “applied the 2007 five payments of $22,274.46…”  As I stated in detail in my May 19, 2011 letter, pursuant to the express terms of the Forbearance Agreement, the $22,274.46 payment was credited towards satisfying the principal and interest owed by you for the May 2006-September 2006 payments on your SBA loan which you had previously failed to make. 

5.       You ask how SBBT “can amortize a SBA loan…by adding into it unpaid principal and then claiming a balance owed of $465,195.50.”  Again, I specifically addressed this issue in my May 19, 2011 letter to you.  In 2007 your loan was past due $67,445.66.  You paid $22,274.46 which paid a portion of the past due principal and interest with the remaining $45,171.20 past due being added to the outstanding balance due and the combined total was re-amortized to assist you in bringing the loan current.  You expressly agreed to this when you entered into the Forbearance Agreement.  

6.       How SBBT “has a legal right to charge interest on principal…”  I am unclear what you mean by this question.  Lenders charge interest on the principal balance of loans.  That is legal. 

7.       You ask why SBBT “would file a fraudulent NOD…”  SBBT did not file a fraudulent NOD, and you have provided no evidence to the contrary. 

8.       You ask why “attorneys fees of $58,700.00 are due for asking banking questions…”  Your statement is incorrect.  The attorneys fees included in SBBT’s claim in your bankruptcy arose from your default on the SBA Loan, your default on the Forbearance Agreement, and your bankruptcy proceeding.  Had you not defaulted on your SBA loan, you would not have been charged these fees. 

9.       You ask how SBBT “feels a legal right to charge 10% of $265,000.00 as a standard Santa Barbara Bank & Trust foreclosure fee.”  SBBT did not “charge” a foreclosure fee.  The entity conducting the foreclosure charged a foreclosure fee, as is standard.     

10.   You ask why your loan balance was deemed to be $400,962.89 instead of $390,996.91 in November 2011.  As Mr. Forouzandeh stated to you in his November 23, 2011 email, the $390,996.91 balance was apparently obtained by you from SBBT's online banking feature which temporarily showed a principal balance of $390,996.91 for the loan.  The $390,996.91 was calculated using the fixed interest rate of 6% set forth in the Forbearance Agreement.  Due to your default on the Forbearance Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement was rescinded and the principal amount of the loan was re-calculated and re-amortized going back to the date of the Forbearance Agreement using the interest rate of Prime + 2% (as required in your original loan) for the time period between the date of the Forbearance Agreement and the date of the Proof of Claim with the loan being re-amortized on a yearly basis per SBA loan rules.  The Prime Rate during that period varied between 3.25%-8.25% and thus the interest rate for your loan during that period of time varied between 5.25%-10.25.  Since the interest rate was higher than the fixed 6% rate for much of this period, when the loan was re-calculated and re-amortized under the original loan terms, your principal amount increased to $400,962.89 due to the higher interest rate and the fact that you failed to make any payments for a large portion of that period of time.  The $390,996.91 balance temporarily appeared on SBBT's online account access for your loan because that system had not been updated to rescind the terms of the Forbearance Agreement and had not re-calculated or re-amortized your loan based on the original loan terms.

 

I trust that these responses answer your questions.  If you have any further questions pertaining to your SBA loan, please contact Robert Forouzandeh or me, but do not contact any SBBT or Union Bank officers or employees.

Mr. Bookout,

 

Over the past several days you have transmitted at least four email correspondences directly to various Union Bank officers, employees and directors who are the successors to the Santa Barbara Bank & Trust (“SBBT”) individuals you were ordered not to contact.  Your conduct violates the spirit of the June 27, 2011 Restraining Order after Hearing to Stop Harassment issued against you by the Santa Barbara Superior Court (the “Restraining Order”).  As part of the Restraining Order you were precluded from communicating with any SBBT officers, directors or employees and were ordered to direct any questions pertaining to your SBBT Small Business Administration Loan only to either Diana Jessup Lee or myself

 

This letter shall serve as the one and only demand that you cease and desist from contacting any Union Bank officers, directors or employees pertaining to your SBBT Small Business Administration loan.  Failure to abide by this demand will result in Union Bank initiating legal action against you to extend the Restraining Order to explicitly cover all Union Bank officials.  In the event legal action becomes necessary to modify the Restraining Order, Union Bank will seek reimbursement of all of its attorneys’ fees and costs from you as permitted by statute.

 

Furthermore, as I have reminded you on countless occasions, since the initiation of your bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court, you are represented by counsel of record.  Any communication regarding your SBBT loan while you are represented by counsel must be directed through your counsel.

 

Lastly, I would like to address your December 2012 bank statement request.  As I told your attorney Mr. Gautschi on numerous occasions, the bank statements for your account are generated in the third or fourth week of each month.  Thus, no December 2012 statement has been created yet for your account.  Once the December 2012 statement is generated, I will immediately forward it to Mr. Gautschi as I have done before.  I provided your November 2012 statement to Mr. Gautschi on November 27, 2012.

Mr. Bookout:

 

This correspondence is provided to you for information purposes only and does not constitute a demand for payment.

 

As you are well aware, you have filed bankruptcy.  Thus, as your attorney will be able to advise you, all issues surrounding your secured loan, including any accountings to be provided by secured creditors, are governed by federal statute.  Santa Barbara Bank and Trust has provided to you all accountings and records required by federal statute.  I again reiterate, your January post-petition payment to Santa Barbara Bank & Trust was $4,077.32 and your February 2012 post-petition payment along with all future post-petition payments for the 2012 calendar year are $4,389.64 per month. 

 

As to your question about the lack of late charges on your January 19, 2012 Statement that I provided to you, if you examine it closely, you will see that the late charges are identified as "Post Petition Late Charges Due".  This section only covers late charges that have accrued for the period of time since you filed your latest bankruptcy petition.

 

Lastly, as I have now stated to you on multiple occasions, the Santa Barbara Superior Court issued a restraining order against you (at a hearing in which you attended) which precluded you from contacting anyone at Santa Barbara Bank & Trust other than Diana Jessup Lee and myself.  That restraining order is still in full force and effect.  Again, as I am sure your attorney can advise you, any attempt by you to contact anyone at Santa Barbara Bank & Trust other than Diana Jessup Lee or myself would result in you being held in contempt of a valid Court Order by the Court.

Pursuant to the Addendum to Chapter 13 Plan Concerning Debtors Who Are Repaying Debt Secured by a Mortgage on Real Property filed by you on behalf of Mr. Bookout in the above entitled matter, secured creditor Santa Barbara Bank & Trust hereby submits the following monthly loan statement for Mr. Bookout's loan for the months of January and February 2012.  I have also attached the payment amount change notice as well.  As you will see, and as Mr. Bookout has mentioned on multiple occasions in the past, pursuant to the terms of Mr. Bookout's note, his loan was re-amortized this month and his new payment amount will be $4,389.64.  The new payment amount is effective for the post petition payment due on February 6, 2012.  Please be advised that Mr. Bookout has not tendered his post petition payment for January 2012 in the amount of $4,077.32 which is why this amount is listed as being "Post Petition Past Due Amount" on the monthly statement.

 

Pursuant to federal statute, this information is being provided to you and Mr. Bookout for information purposes only and these documents do not constitute demand for payment.

Subject: RE: Bookout/PCB Mediation per thier Bank Fraud and Breach of Contract since 2007

 

Mr. Bookout:

 

First, you have refused to answer my question as to whether or not you recorded our telephone conversation from earlier this morning, as you orally told me that you had done.  If in fact you did record the telephone call, this would constitute a criminal act in violation of California Penal Code Section 632.

 

In regards to the May 19, 2011 from Diana Jessup Lee to you.  This letter is not fraudulent and we continue to stand by its validity and accuracy.  In that letter, Ms. Lee specifically stated that the $465,195.50 figure, "does not include any late fees, attorneys fees or any other charges other than principal and interest."  (emphasis in original)  As you are well aware, both your original note and the forbearance agreement allow SBBT to add late fees, attorneys fees and other costs incurred by SBBT as a result of your default of the note or the forbearance agreement.

 

In regards to the SBA Form 1149 of August 29, 2011, as I told you during the telephone call, this form was calculated using the figures and interest rate from the Forbearance Agreement.  Due to your default of the Forbearance Agreement, the Bank, as it was permitted to in the Forbearance Agreement, elected to revoke the benefits that the Forbearance Agreement provided to you.  This resulted in a recalculation of your loan based on the original note terms.  Due to the fact that the interest rate for your loan is lower based on the original method of calculation (Prime Rate + 2%= 5.25%) as opposed to the 6% fixed rate set forth in the Forbearance Agreement this was the crucial factor which resulted in the monthly payment amount being reduced to the amount set forth in SBBT's various filings in your bankruptcy proceeding.  Thus, neither the August 29, 2011 Form 1149 nor SBBT's bankruptcy filings are incorrect or fraudulent as you contend.

 

At no point during our telephone conversation did we discuss any issues surrounding your inverse condemnation case.  Your claim that we discussed this issue is patently false.

 

As I stated to you during the telephone call, SBBT will not forgive either the deed of trust against the Oceano property or the Pismo Beach property unless your loan to SBBT is satisfied. 

 

Lastly, I have stated to you on numerous occasions, due to your currently pending bankruptcy proceeding in which you are represented by counsel, it is highly inappropriate for you to be contacting me directly, as opposed to through your attorney of record.  This morning's telephone call during which you illegally recorded the call without my approval is a prime example.

Mr. Bookout:

 

Your reference to the document that you have attached an image of below is not helpful for your position as it is not current and your account balance has changed significantly since that time due to your failure to make any payments on the loan other than for October and November 2011.

 

More importantly, please read the language of the second paragraph where it specifically states in capital letters, "ACCEPTANCE OF ALL NET PROCEEDS OR THE AMOUNT SPECIFIED ABOVE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE FULL PAYMENT OF THE INDEBTEDNESS AND ANY REMAINING BALANCE WILL STILL BE OWED BY THE BORROWER AND GUARANTORS." 

 

Thus, neither Mr. Lutz's declaration nor the Demand Statement are inaccurate.

Mr. Rossi:

 

Your client is asking what his December 2011 payment to Santa Barbara Bank and Trust ("SBBT") should be.  I would direct his attention to the Proof of Claim filed by SBBT in Mr. Bookout's bankruptcy proceeding, which states that Mr. Bookout's post-petition payments to Santa Barbara Bank & Trust should be $4,077.32.  This amount is based on the recalculated principal balance of $400,962.89 which was determined as a result of Mr. Bookout's pre-petition default of the Forbearance Agreement (which had a fixed interest rate of 6%) resulting in the termination of the interest rate afforded under the Forbearance Agreement.  I have explained this re-calculation process to your client on several occasions.

 

Please be advised that pursuant to the terms of Mr. Bookout's loan, the loan will be re-amortized as of January 2012.  Due to Mr. Bookout's long running default on this loan, upon re-amortization, the monthly payments will change.  Once the loan is re-amortized, I will provide you with the new payment amount which will be applicable for the entire 2012 calendar year.

Mr. Bookout:

 

Since you have retained legal counsel, I have stated to you on more than three occasions now, any questions, comments or concerns pertaining to your SBBT loan should be directed through your attorneys only.

 

With that being said, I did notice one new question that you have posed in your email below which does not pertain to any legal matters and I will proceed to answer it at this time and CC your attorneys on this email so that it is not construed as an ex parte communication.

 

You ask: "How did Santa Barbara Bank & Trust come up with a principal balance owed of $400,962.89..."  In doing so, you post what appears to be a cut and paste excerpt from SBBT's website which shows a principal balance of $390,996.91 for the loan. 

 

Our response is as follows:  The $390,996.91 was calculated using the fixed interest rate of 6% set forth in the Forbearance Agreement.  Due to your default of the Forbearance Agreement, the Forbearance Agreement was rescinded (as permitted by its terms) and the principal amount of the loan was re-calculated and re-amortized going back to the date of the Forbearance Agreement using the interest rate of Prime + 2% (as required in your original loan) for the time period between the date of the Forbearance Agreement and the date of the Proof of Claim with the loan being re-amortized on a yearly basis per SBA loan rules.  The Prime Rate during that period varied between 3.25%-8.25% and thus the interest rate for your loan during that period of time varied between 5.25%-10.25%.  Since the interest rate was higher than the fixed 6% rate for much of this period, when the loan was re-calculated and re-amortized under the original loan terms, your principal amount increased to $400,962.89 due to the higher interest rate and the fact that you failed to make any payments for a large portion of that period of time.  The $390,996.91 balance appears on SBBT's online account access for your loan because that system has not been updated to rescind the terms of the Forbearance Agreement and has accordingly not re-calculated or re-amortized your loan based on the original loan terms.

 

I hope this answers your question.  Again, please direct any future questions, comments or concerns through your attorneys only.

Subject: RE: Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Theft of Principal, Breach of Contract and Mortgage Modification Fraud.

 

Mr. Bookout,

 

Thank you for faxing and emailing to me this afternoon the OCC letters dated July 16, 2008, June 30, 2011, July 15, 2011, August 2, 2011 and August 30, 2011.  I have now reviewed these documents and am prepared to respond.  My review of the 5 OCC letters that you have provided does not alter my prior conclusion that there is not a single piece of evidence which would even imply any acts of "Predatory Lending, Breach of Contract and Fraud" on the part of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust.  In fact, after reviewing the OCC letters the only thing that is clear to me is that you are in breach of contract with Santa Barbara Bank & Trust as a result of your default on your loan.

 

Specifically, the following quotes demonstrate that the OCC has not made any findings of wrongdoing on the part of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust: 

    1.  July 16, 2008 Letter, the OCC stated, "The OCC cannot resolve contractual disputes between national banks and their customers.  When a clearly defined civil dispute develops, an agency such as the OCC would be acting beyond its authority as a trier of fact or adjudicator of civil disputes."

    2.  June 30, 2011 Letter, the OCC stated, "As your difficulty with the bank was in mediation and is subject of litigation, it is inappropriate for the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to intervene in this case."

    3.  July 15, 2011 Letter, the OCC stated, "Because your matter is a contractual dispute and the subject of arbitration, the OCC cannot comment on any information you may have received.  Based on the current course of events between you and the bank, we are unable to assist you further."

    4.  August 2, 2011 Letter, the OCC stated, "The OCC does not have the authority to intervene in such matters.  We have previously responded to you on July 16, 2008, January 7, 2009 and June 30, 2011.  Our position has not changed.  We will no longer respond to phone calls or correspondences regarding this issue.  This letter represents our final response."

    5.  August 30, 2011 Letter, the OCC stated, "As your dispute with the bank involves a business loan and therefore is governed by the contract signed between you and the bank, consumer compliance laws do not apply."

 

Furthermore, as we have repeatedly told you, the amortization schedules that we provided to you on May 6, 2011 were prepared by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust employees, not by any of the attorneys in this office, this office simply delivered them to you.  Thus, your claim that "Neither You [Robert Forouzandeh] nor Diana Jessup Lee are qualified to prepare Santa Barbara Bank & Trust amortization schedules" is simply incorrect.  Also, we provided you with 2 amortization schedules simply as a courtesy to you and to extend additional benefits in Schedule #2 to you which you were not entitled to as a gesture of good faith and in an effort to settle this matter. 

 

Lastly, you have not provided any information or evidence which would lead Santa Barbara Bank & Trust to either rescind the most recent notice of default or to suspend the currently scheduled Trustee Sale from proceeding.

Subject: RE: Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Theft of Principal, Breach of Contract and Mortgage Modification Fraud.

 

Mr. Bookout:

 

Although Ms. Lee and I have answered this question repeatedly and the amortization schedules that we provided to you in May speak for themselves, I will answer this question one last time in the hopes of providing you with clarity once and for all.

 

As you will see at the top of Amortization Schedule 1, it clearly shows that $22,274.46 was reduced from the outstanding balance of principal and interest due on the loan at the time of the forbearance agreement.  This is why the $22,274.46 is placed inside of parenthesis ($22,274.46) on the Amortization Schedule.  The fact that it is in parenthesis shows that it was reduced from the outstanding balance of principal and interest owed on the loan at that time.  Similarly, at the top of Amortization Schedule 2, it shows that your Principal Balance "after 5 payments" was $416,898.31.  The "5 payments" refers to the $22,274.46.  Thus, the $22,274.46 was reduced from the principal and interest on the loan (the outstanding balance) prior to the loan being re-amortized pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement.

 

I trust that this explanation will answer your questions about the manner in which the $22,274.46 was credited towards your account.

 

As to the alleged comments from the OCC:  You continue to ignore our request that you provide us with copies of the OCC letters dated July 16, 2008, June 30, 2011 and August 2, 2011 which you continually refer to.  I am unable to comment on those letters until you send them to me.

 

Additionally, I have reviewed your two newest correspondences and my position remains the same:  After reviewing all of your emails and correspondences, I have not found a single piece of evidence which would even imply any acts of "Predatory Lending, Breach of Contract and Fraud" on the part of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust.

Mr. Bookout:

 

We have repeatedly, in writing, denied your false allegations of "the Bank Fraud and Breach of Contract committed by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust since 2007" and provided you with the evidence to substantiate our position.  We continue to stand by this denial.  We have also repeatedly told you that any delay in responding to your allegations does not constitute an admission of your allegations.

 

It must also be noted that neither the SBA, FDIC or OCC has made any findings of improper conduct on the part of Santa Barbara Bank and Trust in relation to your loan.

 

As I have stated to you on numerous occasions, the correspondences to you from Ms. Lee dated May 6, May 26, May 31, June 28, July 5 and July 15, 2011 and the correspondences to you from myself dated August 2 and 3 provide ample evidence to refute all of your false allegations against Santa Barbara Bank & Trust.  Please direct your attention to those documents.

Mr. Bookout:

 

In response to your questions  :

 

"Wasn’t the deferred payments amortized from 2007 into this loan as presented to the Internal Revenue Service by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust for 2007 and 2008?

 

Why did Santa Barbara Bank & Trust not properly amortize this loan per the written 2007 Forbearance agreement?"

 

My response is as follows: Initially, the deferred payments were amortized into the loan after execution of the forbearance.  This was indicated in the two amortization schedules that Ms. Lee provided to you previously.  Subsequently, you defaulted on the loan and the forbearance agreement by failing to make payments.  Pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) of the Forbearance (which you cut and pasted to your email below), "In the event of default under this Agreement or the Applicable Loan Documents, Bank shall be entitled to cancel the forbearance applicable to the Deferred Payments and shall be entitled to demand that Borrower within fifteen (15) business days of the demand, pay to Bank in full (i) the Deferred Payments and (ii) the Deferred Late Charges..."  Accordingly, after you defaulted on the Forbearance Agreement, Santa Barbara Bank and Trust demanded  that you pay the entire Deferred Payment amount in full within 15 business days, which you failed to do.  Accordingly, this amount was added to the Notice of Default which was recorded against your property in May.

 

All other questions that you pose in your latestemail were previously answered by Ms. Lee in the various emails that I identified below. 

 

I hope that this clears up any confusion that you may have as to the handling of your loan.

Mr. Bookout,

 

The July 27, 2011 statement sent from Santa Barbara Bank and Trust does not include the amounts owed by you for the deferred payments under the Forbearance Agreement.  When you breached the Forbearance Agreement by going into default on your loan, pursuant to contract, the deferred payments were accelerated and due in full immediately.  Accordingly, they were added to the notice of default amount.  Nonetheless, as a token of good faith, if you pay the amount set forth on the July 27, 2011 statement ($102,859.01), Santa Barbara Bank and Trust will accept this as a complete cure of your default on your loan which is now in its 21st month. 

 

All of the other questions you refer to in your email were fully and completely answered in the various emails from Ms. Lee to you that I identified in my August 1, 2011 email to you. Please go back and review them in depth and you will find answers to all of your questions, including how the May Notice of Default was calculated.

Thank you.

If in fact there have been no such findings (as I believe to be the truth), then your public statements constitute slander and trade liable.  To date Santa Barbara Bank & Trust has not sought legal recourse for your unlawful statements.  If you persist, however, the bank may find it necessary to obtain a court order against you, just as you pushed the bank to the pointing of obtain a restraining order against you.

Subject: RE: Bookout/PCB Mediation per thier Bank Fraud and Breach of Contract since 2007

 

Dear Mr. Bookout:

 

1.   The bank did not overcharge you $7,172.57.  Each of your payments were applied to outstanding interest and then to principal.  Many of your early payments were for more than the minimum amount due, and the principal balance was reduced accordingly with each payment.   Solely for settlement purposes I offered to discount your loan by various amounts, including $7,000.  Your mischaracterization of such offers is discouraging.  The bank is willing to discuss any reasonable proposal for curing your loan default.  The fact that another bank foreclosed on your home because you did not pay that bank either, is not a topic we can address. 

 

2.  The two amortization schedules enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter were created by SBBT based on the terms of your original loan, the forbearance agreement, and your payment history.  Your request for additional computerized documents makes no sense.

 

3.   I will check on the 2007 Form 1098 and see if it should be amended to reflect that you paid less in interest.

 

4.  Your July 2007 payment of $22,274.46 was used "to pay the monthly principal and interest payments owing on Note for the earliest five monthly past due payments (May, 2006, June, 2006, July, 2006, August, 2006 and September, 2006)" exactly as stated in the Forbearance Agreement (emphasis added).  This has been explained to you repeatedly.  See my May 19, 2011 letter as well as the charts enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter.  I do not intend to continue repeating myself, so please do not keep asking this same question.

 

5.     1)  The January 14, 2011 NOD was withdrawn as part of our mediation offer to you.  I have not reviewed it, nor is there any reason to do so since it is irrelevant. 

        2)  The May 19, 2011 NOD states the amount of your default, not the outstanding balance due on the loan.  My May 6 and 19 letters addressed your questions about past payments and the outstanding balance due on your loan.  The pending NOD is consistent with my May 6 and May 19 letters, and all three are accurate; they simply address different issues. 

        3)  All principal payments you made were credited prior to determining the amount of your default as stated in the pending NOD.  See explanation 1. above.

        4)  I have reviewed your Ex. 6 and cannot find the document to which you reference.  Nevertheless, it does not matter.  The operative documents are my May 6 and 19 letters to you with enclosed schedules and the May 19, 2011 NOD.  All three of these documents credit the $22,274.46 as if you had timely made the monthly payments due May, 2006 through September, 2006, as agreed in the Forbearance Agreement.

Dear Mr. Bookout:

 

As you are fully aware, I never admitted that Pacific Capital Bank over charged your account.  We have repeatedly provided you with detailed schedules showing how your payments have been applied and how your default balance is calculated.  You have not made any payments in 1.5 years and the bank is currently proceeding with foreclosure proceedings.  I have offered discount your loan by various amounts, including $7,000, if it would settle your claims and you would resume making loan payments.  On every occasion that a settlement has been offered to you, you have declined it.  Your mischaracterization of settlement offers as admissions makes it very difficult to have productive discussions with you.  Nevertheless, the bank remains willing to consider any reasonable proposal you have to cure your loan default. 

 

I do not know what "computerized" records you are requesting.  The May 6, 2011 schedules are official and are correct, so there is no need for any other records.

 

Please send me a copy of the "1098 form" about which you have questions and I will obtain an explanation for you.

 

My May 19, 2011 letter to you explained the application of the $22,274.46 in detail.  Please read my letter.

 

As  we explained, a lower number was used in the NOD in an effort to eliminate any possible dispute.   In calculating your missed payment amounts for the NOD, the missed payments in  2010-2011 were calculated at 5.25% interest ( then current prime rate of 3.25% + 2% as stated in the original loan) as a courtesy to you.  Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement the bank is entitled to charge you 6%.  If you pay this lower number, the NOD will be withdrawn.

Dear Mr. Bookout,

 

Thank you for approving the environmental inspection for May 6.  We are putting together the information we agreed to provide you, which hopefully will assist you in seeing that your assumptions are not correct.

 

Please comply with your commitment not to communicate with anyone other than me about this matter until May 13, 2011.

Dear Bill and Diana:

I am writing this message to you at the conclusion of today’s mediation to confirm the things that the parties have agreed to over the next 16 days:

1.      By May 6, 2011, PCB will provide to Bill a schedule that lists the application of the payments that he made from and after July 1, 2007 and a loan amortization that shows how payments were anticipated to be applied from July 1, 2007 to the end of the term of the loan.

2.      Between now and May 13, 2011, Bill will cooperate with an inspection by PCB (and its agents) of each of the two properties (1341 Paso Robles Street, Oceano, and 470 Price Street, Pismo Beach) on a date selected by PCB yet giving Bill at least 3 days notice of the date.  PCB will pay for the inspections. 

3.      PCB will not record a Notice of Sale or a new Notice of Default until May 13, 2011 at the earliest.

4.      Bill will not add content about PCB to any websites, and will not send any emails or other communications related to PCB until May 13, 2011 at the earliest, except that Bill may email to Diana Lee and may consult with attorneys in an effort to secure legal counsel.

5.      I will stay in touch with both of you as we continue to explore a possible settlement.

Best regards,

Lol Sorensen

Dear Mr. Bookout,

 

Your email below is inaccurate.  In our conversation this afternoon, you called my attention to the typographical error in my March 22, 2011 email which contained a 2012 year rather than 2011.  You and I acknowledged that the conversations upon which that email was based, as well as the other emails we have exchanged specified that your web sites and You Tube sites needed to go dark on March 23, 2011, not March 23, 2012. 

 

As I stated in our conversation, the bank is willing to go to mediation with you on April 7, the date you requested, and has arranged for Lol Sorensen, the mediator you selected, to serve as the mediator.  The bank has also agreed that you need not pay any mediation fees upfront, and that the topic of how the mediation fees are paid will be addressed at the mediation.  The bank also agreed to toll the running of time under your Notice of Default, all conditioned on you agreeing to cease all communications, except with me, regarding this dispute, including causing your webs sites and your You Tube site to go dark until the mediation.  You told me that you would not agree to cause your web sites to temporarily go dark pending the mediation. 

 

Accordingly, you have declined the bank's generous offer and there is nothing further I can do for you.  This file will be returned to Mr. Lazar, and you should direct all further communications to him.

 

Sincerely,

 

Diana Lee.

Dear Mr. Bookout,

 

I contacted Mr. Sorensen's office, and obtained the following dates on which he is available:  April 7, 8, 18 or 19.  I must check with my client to see what days she is available.  Are any of these days convinient for you?

 

I just checked your web sites and they are still up.  I'm not sure if you do not intend to cause your sites to go dark as I specified, or if you have delayed because you believe I need to read the material on your sites.  In hope that it is the later, I will have my assistant print out everything on your sites first thing in the morning, and then I expect you to cause them to go dark by 10:00 a.m.  Otherwise, we do not have an agreement, and there will not be a tolling of the time accruing under your Notice of Default.  The complete cessation of all postings was an important part of the bank's agreement to freeze the accrual of time under your Notice of Default, and if your web sites and You Tube postings are going continue, then there is no agreement to freeze the accrual of time under the Notice of Default.

Mr. Bookout:

With regard to your request for an itemization of the amounts which comprise the delinquency amount set forth in the notices of default recently recorded, the amount is calculated as follows:

UNPAID PAYMENTS

10 Deferred 10/2006 - 7/2007                            $37,801.09

Jan-Dec 2010                                            $49,452.72

                                  Total:                                $87,253.81

Late charges to 11/16/10                                $4,858.96

Appraisal Fees                                          $4,050.00

Legal Fees                                              $50.00

UCC Search Fees                                         $15.50

                Amount shown on NOD                             $96,228.27     

With regard to the questions you have been propounding which you chose to resolve through complaint to the OCC, this email will advise you that Pacific Capital Bank has responded to the OCC within their prescribed timeframes, and we assume they will follow up with you based upon that response.  Any issues you have with the Bank’s response to the OCC, or with the OCC’s response, should be taken up with the OCC.

With regard to your request for an amortization schedule, an amortization schedule is necessarily based upon assumptions, such as a static interest rate, and assumes strict performance by the borrower as required by the terms of the loan.  In the case of your loan, the significant defaults and the agreements that have been made not only make any previously-issued amortization not relevant to the loan’s current status, but they preclude a current amortization, since the defaults are continuing, additional charges are being incurred, and the time to maturity is decreasing,

among other things.  Should the loan be put in a performing status, we could address amortization schedule issues at that time.

Finally, you continue to state that Pacific Capital Bank is required to respond to you in a time period you specify and that if there is no response, you are entitled to assume that a statement you have made is accurate or otherwise has been validated by Pacific Capital Bank.  Again, I reiterate that Pacific Capital Bank’s lack of a response to a communication from you within any time period specified by you is not an admission by the Bank that any statement you have made is accurate or is adopted by the Bank.  And, if you were ever to claim to any third party that Pacific Capital Bank’s failure to respond to a communication from you was an admission of some kind by the Bank, that claim would be knowingly false on your part and could be, depending on the circumstances, libelous, a matter the Bank takes very seriously. 

As before, I remain your contact point for questions directed to Pacific Capital Bank.  Please note the amount required to cure your loan default has increased since the amounts provided in the Notice of Default.  Should you be interested in curing the default, please advise

Robert Forouzandeh, California State Bar # 247177,

 

Thank you for your response below on December 24, 2011  You are not to contact anyone at Santa Barbara Bank and Trust.  If you do so you will be in violation of the restraining order issued against you by the Santa Barbara Superior Court.”  Can you answer the questions asked on June 3, 2011 below of Mr. Mark K. Olson and Mr. Richard Nightingale of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust with Diana Jessup Lees refusal to answer banking questions asked of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust?

 

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Re: Case # 01944977—SBA---San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara News Media attached, should have full knowledge of the predatory lending that has taken place by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust and how Christine Sontag filed a restraining order for the questions asked below from May 19, 2011 to June 3, 2011 of Santa Barbara Bank & Trust and Mr. Mark K. Olson and Mr. Richard Nightingale after Diana Jessup Lee refused to answer banking questions asked of her since her May 19, 2011 letter!

 

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Case # 01944977---01394465 -01672308 –770567 has full knowledge of the documents attached and Santa Barbara Bank & Trust claim that principal had been paid!  Robert Forouzandeh, Please explain as to why the IRS 1098 Form 1098 attached does not show any Principal paid as Santa Barbara Bank & Trust had informed the  Office of the Comptroller of the Currency?  Notice SBA From 1149 showing no principal paid!

Robert Forouzandeh, Can you explain for Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, as to why a Santa Barbara Bank & Trust would file a restraining order for asking SBBT Banking questions in regards to SBBT Banking Mistakes made by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust since 2007?  Notice the SBA Form 1149 provided at Mediation with Lol Sorensen as the Mediator.  Explain as to how Santa Barbara Bank & Trust amortized this SBA loan from the 2007 forbearance and workout agreement?

Robert Forouzandeh, How did Santa Barbara Bank & Trust in the two May 5, 2011 Amortization Schedule come to 10 deferred payments of $4,517.12 or $45,171.20 when the January 9, 2007 demand letter written by Heidi Dugan showed payments owed of $4,391.08 for October 2006--$4,246.38 for November 2006—4,053.66 for December 2006 and $3,813.90 for January 6, 2007?  The SBBT payment notice of $3,529.24 for the February 6, 2007 payment.  The SBBT payment notice February 21, 2007 of $3,201.82 March 24, 2007 of $2,832.93 May 23, 2007 for May 6, 2007 of $2,428.61 and the June 6, 2007 payment of 1,990.57 along with the June 23, 2007 First Bank of San Luis Obispo June 23, 2007 invoice for July 6, 2007 payment of $1,524.46 which adds up to $32,012.65 instead of $45,171.20?  The NOD filed January 14, 2007 by Pacific Capital Bank claimed 10 Deferred payments from 10/2006 - 7/2007 of $37,801.09 instead of $45,171.20! showing more Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Banking Fraud! 

 

Robert Forouzandeh, As you are now fully knowledgeable, Santa Barbara Bank & Trust claims in the August 29, 2011 SBA Form 1149 as provided to the U. S. Small Business Administration as seen at www.sbaloanauthorization.com  and www.sbaplploans.com that only interest was paid from the 2007 forbearance agreement!  Diana Jessup Lee has stated! “3.   I will check on the 2007 Form 1098 and see if it should be amended to reflect that you paid less in interest.” Robert Forouzandeh, attached is the January 9, 2007 Demand Letter written by Heidi Dugan!  How did SBBT come up with $45,171.20 per the May 19, 2011 Notice of Default and SBA Form 1149?

 

Robert Forouzandeh, Can you explain as to why as stated by SBBT.  1)  The January 14, 2011 NOD was withdrawn as part of our mediation offer to you.  I have not reviewed it, nor is there any reason to do so since it is irrelevant.?  Was withdrawn and then was falsified on May 19, 2011 by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust?  Notice the SBA Form 1149 attached above showing only interest being paid in 2007!

 

Robert Forouzandeh, Can you explain as to why Santa Barbara Bank & Trust would State:  2)  The May 19, 2011 NOD states the amount of your default, not the outstanding balance due on the loan.  My May 6 and 19 letters addressed your questions about past payments and the outstanding balance due on your loan.  The pending NOD is consistent with my May 6 and May 19 letters, and all three are accurate; they simply address different issues.”   And then Falsify the May 19, 2011 NOD as seen in the SBA Form 1149 Diana Jessup Lee, provided at our mediation with Mr. Lol Sorensen as seen attached above?

 

Robert Forouzandeh, Can you explain as per SBA Form 1149 as stated by SBBT:   to  “3)  All principal payments you made were credited prior to determining the amount of your default as stated in the pending NOD.  See explanation 1. above.”  Robert Forouzandeh, How was the Principal Payments credited per Diana Jessup Lees email statement on June 29, 2011?

 

Robert Forouzandeh, please explain as per SBA Form 1149 that Diana Jessup Lee, provided per our mediation as to how Santa Barbara applied principal to my SBA loan?  4.  Your July 2007 payment of $22,274.46 was used "to pay the monthly principal and interest payments owing on Note for the earliest five monthly past due payments (May, 2006, June, 2006, July, 2006, August, 2006 and September, 2006)" exactly as stated in the Forbearance Agreement (emphasis added).  This has been explained to you repeatedly.  See my May 19, 2011 letter as well as the charts enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter.  I do not intend to continue repeating myself, so please do not keep asking this same question.” Robert Forouzandeh, notice in the SBA Form 1149 attached that Santa Barbara Bank & Trust has not applied principal as stated by Diana Jessup Lee in her email on June 29, 2011!

 

Robert Forouzandeh, what is the status of this statement from Diana Jessup Lee! “3.   I will check on the 2007 Form 1098 and see if it should be amended to reflect that you paid less in interest.” Have you or Diana Jessup Lee, checked on the 2007 1098 Form and had it amended to reflect that I paid less in interest from Santa Barbara Bank & Trusts accounting mistakes?

 

Robert Forouzandeh, can you explain for Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, as to why Santa Barbara Bank & Trust would file a restraining order for questioning mistakes or fraud that have been made by Santa Barbara Bank & Trust since 2007?

 

Robert Forouzandeh, California State Bar # 247177, why did Santa Barbara Bank & Trust in the SBA Form 1149 not start lowing the principal balance of $420,024.30 in July 2007 and waited until September 30, 2008?  What did Santa Barbara Bank & Trust do with this principal paid per the January 14, 2011 NOD and the May 19, 2011 Notice of Defaults?

Dear Mr. Bookout:

 

1.   The bank did not overcharge you $7,172.57.  Each of your payments were applied to outstanding interest and then to principal.  Many of your early payments were for more than the minimum amount due, and the principal balance was reduced accordingly with each payment.   Solely for settlement purposes I offered to discount your loan by various amounts, including $7,000.  Your mischaracterization of such offers is discouraging.  The bank is willing to discuss any reasonable proposal for curing your loan default.  The fact that another bank foreclosed on your home because you did not pay that bank either, is not a topic we can address. 

 

2.  The two amortization schedules enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter were created by SBBT based on the terms of your original loan, the forbearance agreement, and your payment history.  Your request for additional computerized documents makes no sense.

 

3.   I will check on the 2007 Form 1098 and see if it should be amended to reflect that you paid less in interest.

 

4.  Your July 2007 payment of $22,274.46 was used "to pay the monthly principal and interest payments owing on Note for the earliest five monthly past due payments (May, 2006, June, 2006, July, 2006, August, 2006 and September, 2006)" exactly as stated in the Forbearance Agreement (emphasis added).  This has been explained to you repeatedly.  See my May 19, 2011 letter as well as the charts enclosed with my May 6, 2011 letter.  I do not intend to continue repeating myself, so please do not keep asking this same question.

 

5.     1)  The January 14, 2011 NOD was withdrawn as part of our mediation offer to you.  I have not reviewed it, nor is there any reason to do so since it is irrelevant. 

        2)  The May 19, 2011 NOD states the amount of your default, not the outstanding balance due on the loan.  My May 6 and 19 letters addressed your questions about past payments and the outstanding balance due on your loan.  The pending NOD is consistent with my May 6 and May 19 letters, and all three are accurate; they simply address different issues. 

        3)  All principal payments you made were credited prior to determining the amount of your default as stated in the pending NOD.  See explanation 1. above.

        4)  I have reviewed your Ex. 6 and cannot find the document to which you reference.  Nevertheless, it does not matter.  The operative documents are my May 6 and 19 letters to you with enclosed schedules and the May 19, 2011 NOD.  All three of these documents credit the $22,274.46 as if you had timely made the monthly payments due May, 2006 through September, 2006, as agreed in the Forbearance Agreement.

Diana Jessup Lee, Esq.

Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP

1421 State Street, Suite B

Santa Barbara, CA  93101

 

Dear Mrs. Diana Jessup Lee,

 

The NOD that Pacific Capital Bank has file May 19, 2011 does not take into account the 29 payments PCB has over charged my SBA Loan by $7,172.57.  This action by Pacific Capital Bank is a Breach of Contract and I am again willing to sit down in Mediation with Pacific Capital Bank to resolve this issue since 2007!

 

The $7,172.57 would have saved my personal house required by Pacific Capital Bank in the 2007 loan modification in which Pacific Capital Bank immediately broke this signed agreement as seen in your May 6, 2011 amortization schedule.

 

You State:  I do not know what "computerized" records you are requesting.  The May 6, 2011 schedules are official and are correct, so there is no need for any other records. Please provide the computerized records showing how Pacific Capital Bank has come up with the $4,055.30 monthly payment or the $4,028.05 payments seen in your May 6, 2011 letter and amortization schedules.  If these amortization schedules are not created from Pacific Capital Banks computerized records, then please explain if they where created by you or how they were created?  You now have, had a chance to see the Pacific Capital Bank computerized records dated June 6, 2007 and July 24, 2007 showing your May 6, 2011 amortization schedules to be wrong. 

 

The 1098 forms are in your possession as seen in Exhibit # 6 per the Santa Barbara Bank & Trust Harassment claim June 27, 2011 Please send me a copy of the "1098 form" about which you have questions and I will obtain an explanation for you.”  Please review all computerized Pacific Capital Bank documents in Exhibit # 6!

 

No, your May 19, 2011 letter did not explain the $22,274.46 in detail per your statement: “My May 19, 2011 letter to you explained the application of the $22,274.46 in detail.  Please read my letter.” Please explain why none of this $22,274.46 was applied towards principal per the July 6, 2007 Forbearance and Workout Agreement?  This is a Breach of Contract and Mortgage Modification Fraud on top of the $7,172.57 overpaid in principal to Pacific Capital Banks since 2007!   On Page (3 # 2 i)  It States: “$22,274.46 to pay the monthly principal and interest payments owing on the Note for the earliest five past due monthly payments (May, 2006, June, 2006, July 2006, August, 2006 and September 2006).”  This was not done by Pacific Capital Bank and is not seen in your May 19, 2011 Letter!

 

Per your Statement:  As  we explained, a lower number was used in the NOD in an effort to eliminate any possible dispute.   In calculating your missed payment amounts for the NOD, the missed payments in  2010-2011 were calculated at 5.25% interest ( then current prime rate of 3.25% + 2% as stated in the original loan) as a courtesy to you.  Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement the bank is entitled to charge you 6%.  If you pay this lower number, the NOD will be withdrawn.”

1) Please explain, why this was not done in the January 14,  2011 NOD?

 

2) Please explain why the May 6, 2011 amortization schedule prepared by you or the May 19, 2011 letter does not show this explanation?

 

3) Please explain why the extra principal paid of $7,172.57 is not seen in this new Pacific Capital Bank accounting method per the NOD filed May 19, 2011?

 

4) Again In exhibit # 6 is a Pacific Capital Bank Loan Transaction History, dated September 13, 2010, showing no principal reduction of the five payments as seen in your May 6, 2011 amortization schedules.  Can you explain how the $22,274.46 was applied to reduce this loans principal as you had mentioned before court?  This is not seen in the May 19, 2011 NOD reducing Principal per the July 6, 2007 Forbearance and Workout Agreement prepared by Pacific Capital Bank as Stated:  $22,274.46 to pay the monthly principal and interest payments owing on the Note for the earliest five past due monthly payments (May, 2006, June, 2006, July 2006, August, 2006 and September 2006).” 

 

This $22,274.66 figure above was not taken into account in the May 19, 2011 NOD and was not explained in the May 19, 2011 letter per your harassment claim!  You State:  “Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, you paid $22,274.46 to satisfy the May 2006 through September payments,”  Please note that you have not included the principal paid per this 2007 Forbearance Agreement in the May 19, 2011 NOD! Can you explain why Pacific Capital Bank has not done this?

 

Sincerely

Dear Mr. Bookout:

 

As you are fully aware, I never admitted that Pacific Capital Bank over charged your account.  We have repeatedly provided you with detailed schedules showing how your payments have been applied and how your default balance is calculated.  You have not made any payments in 1.5 years and the bank is currently proceeding with foreclosure proceedings.  I have offered discount your loan by various amounts, including $7,000, if it would settle your claims and you would resume making loan payments.  On every occasion that a settlement has been offered to you, you have declined it.  Your mischaracterization of settlement offers as admissions makes it very difficult to have productive discussions with you.  Nevertheless, the bank remains willing to consider any reasonable proposal you have to cure your loan default. 

 

I do not know what "computerized" records you are requesting.  The May 6, 2011 schedules are official and are correct, so there is no need for any other records.

 

Please send me a copy of the "1098 form" about which you have questions and I will obtain an explanation for you.

 

My May 19, 2011 letter to you explained the application of the $22,274.46 in detail.  Please read my letter.

 

As  we explained, a lower number was used in the NOD in an effort to eliminate any possible dispute.   In calculating your missed payment amounts for the NOD, the missed payments in  2010-2011 were calculated at 5.25% interest ( then current prime rate of 3.25% + 2% as stated in the original loan) as a courtesy to you.  Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement the bank is entitled to charge you 6%.  If you pay this lower number, the NOD will be withdrawn.

 

Diana Lee.

Dear Mr. Mark K. Olson and Mr. Nightingale,

 

Re: Diana Lee (155191), Esq. of Reicker, Pfau, Pyle & McRoy LLP June 3, 2011 email explanation in regards to questions asked of Pacific Capital Bank!  Diana Lee states for Pacific Capital Bank:  The questions you ask are answered with full explanations in my letters to you dated May 6 and 19, 2011.”  Unfortunately Diana Jessup Lees response are unacceptable and she has not answered the questions asked of Pacific Capital Bank!  Is this how Pacific Capital Bank handles all of their Loans?

 

The Accounting from the June 23, 2007 First Bank of San Luis Obispo payment notice showed a balance of $452,024.05 on July 6, 2007 after the payment on July 6, 2007 of $22,274.46.  With the Pacific Capital Bank NOD on January 25, 2011 as seen below the July 6, 2007 loan modification should have been amortized at $414,222.96 and monthly payments of $3,609.41!  Why did Pacific Capital Bank charge the Oceano Nursery SBA loan $4,121.06 per month since 2007?  The actual Balance as of December 6, 2010 would have been $344,415.68 with differed payments of $37,801.09 or $32,012.65 as Pacific Capital Bank documents show!  Pacific Capital Bank has acknowledged May 19, 2011 that they believe the monthly payments should have been $3,873.73 per the May 19, 2011 NOD!

 

Please explain how Pacific Capital Bank on May 5, 2011 came up with a SBA loan debt of $465,195.50 or $462,069.51 with monthly mortgage payments of $4,055.30 or $4,028.05 per month instead of the monthly payment of $4,121.06 charged by PCB since July 2007?  This amortization Schedule prepared by Diana Lee is different then the $3,873.73 per month NOD filed by Pacific Capital Bank on May 19, 2011?   This is Bank Fraud and Breach of Contract as now seen in Diana Lees May 3, 2011 email!

 

1)       The Pacific Capital Bank/SBA total loan debt on June 30, 2007 should have been $452,024.05 per the June 23, 2007 First Bank of San Luis Obispo monthly statement!  How did Pacific Capital Bank on May 5, 2011 come up with $462,069.51 per amortization schedule 2 and $465,195.50 per amortization schedule # 1 that Diana Lees states on May 3, 2011 The questions you ask are answered with full explanations in my letters to you dated May 6 and 19, 2011.”

 

2)      Mark K. Olson, How did Pacific Capital Bank in the May 5, 2011 Amortization Schedule come to 10 deferred payments of $4,517.12 or $45,171.20 when the January 9, 2007 demand letter written by Heidi Dugan showed payments owed of $4,391.08 for October 2006--$4,246.38 for November 2006—4,053.66 for December 2006 and $3,813.90 for January 6, 2007?  The PCB payment notice of 3,529.24 for the February 6, 2007 payment.  The PCB payment notice February 21, 2007 of $3,201.82 March 24, 2007 of $2,832.93 May 23, 2007 for May 6, 2007 of $2,428.61 and the June 6, 2007 payment of 1,990.57 along with the June 23, 2007 First Bank of San Luis Obispo June 23, 2007 invoice for July 6, 2007 payment of $1,524.46 which adds up to $32,012.65 instead of $45,171.20?  The NOD filed January 14, 2007 by Pacific Capital Bank claimed 10 Deferred payments from 10/2006 - 7/2007 of $37,801.09 instead of $45,171.20! showing more Pacific Capital Bank Fraud Accounting!

 

3)       Mark K. Olson, How has Pacific Capital Bank in the May 5, 2011 amortization schedule  # 2 reduced the SBA loan payments of $22,274.46 per the June 30, 2007 Forbearance and workout agreement only by $3,125.99 as seen in the “Cash Flow Data” Balance after 5 payments---$416,898.31?  Why does Diana Lee believe that in her May 19, 2011 letter that schedule 1 prepared by her on May 5, 2011 accounts for the principal in this SBA loan when it has not been applied to reduce the 2007 five payments per the Pacific Capital Bank loan modification?

 

4)      Diana Lee in her May 6, 2011 letter states: “As you know, a schedule showing anticipated payments and application of those anticipated payments was not requested or prepared at the time you entered into the Forbearance Agreement effective June 30, 2007.”  Pacific Capital Bank should be responsible for their customer accounting actions and not the customers!  Having in July 2007 finding accounting problems with First Bank Of San Luis Obispo—Pacific Capital Bank and bringing these problems to PCB’ attention; PCB stated in a letter August 1, 2007   “The proper Bank officials will look into the computerized records and determine if there are any problems.”  It is unfortunate that this PCB---SBA loan was never properly looked into and amortized properly in 2007.  How did PCB come up with the SBA loan payment of $4,121.06 instead of $3,659.96?  Why is Diana Jessup Lee, threatening me with foreclosure with Pacific Capital Banks admitted Breach of Contract and Mortgage Modification Fraud since June 30, 2007 in her May 6, 2011 letter?

 

5)      Mark K. Olson, Again, please answer the questions that have been asked of Pacific Capital Bancorp!  Pacific Capital Bancorp shows their theft of Principal and Breach Of Contract, in the May 19, 2011 NOD as accounted for by Fidelity National Title Company! “Per your request, here is a breakdown of the amount showing on the NOD which has recorded 5/19/2011. A copy is attached.  10 payments 10/2006 thru 07/2007 $45,171.20 -- 17 payments 01/2010 thru 05/2011 $65,853.51” Heidi Dugan of Pacific Capital Bank had showed payments owed PCB of $4,391.08 for October 2006--$4,246.38 for November 2006—4,053.66 for December 2006 and $3,813.90 for January 6, 2007!  Please provide the Pacific Capital Banks computerized records to back up Diana Lees claims per her May 19, 2011 letter as she States May 3, 2011 The questions you ask are answered with full explanations in my letters to you dated May 6 and 19, 2011.” 

 

6)      Mark K. Olson, Does Pacific Capital Bank really believe that they can steal $45,171.20 from me in the NOD filed May 19, 2011?  Please provide the Pacific Capital Bank computerized documents to back this debt up if you can!  These computerized documents will be provided to the news media attached per Diana Lee’s statements in your May 19, 2011 letter as seen at www.pacificcapitalbank.co !   Pacific Capital Bank actions are known to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Case # 01394465.  The OCC has been investigating Pacific Capital Banks actions since December 2010.

 

7)      Does Pacific Capital Bank really feel that Diana Lee’s statement May 31, 2011 is correct?  The information I provided you with my May 6, 2011 letter is correct and consistent with the pending NOD.”  Pacific Capital Bank knows that 17 payments of $3,873.73 totals $65,853.51?  Why would Pacific Capital Bancorp steal $247.33 per month from the Oceano Nursery SBA loan as now seen in Pacific Capital Banks, May 19, 2011 NOD?  Why does Pacific Capital Bank not account for this $247.33 in the May 19, 2011 NOD?  How did Diana Jessup Lee, come up with an amortized payment of $4,055.30 on May 5, 2011 instead of $3,873.73 now claimed in the Pacific Capital Bank May 19, 2011 NOD?  Remember Pacific Capital Bancorp has been charging this SBA loan since the 2007 loan modification, $4,121.06 per month which now ads up to Grand Theft and Breach of Contract by Pacific Capital Bank!  How is Pacific Capital Bank going to handle this Mortgage Modification Fraud and Breach of Contract?

 

8)      Mark K. Olson, Diana Lee States: May 31, 2011 to the SBA, Congresswoman Lois Capps, Senator Sam Blakeslee, the Santa Barbara District Attorney and local News Media!  “I have found no evidence of fraud in Pacific Capital Bank's handling of your loan nor in its handling of your many defaults on the loan and subsequent attempts to restructure your loan in an effort to help you cure your defaults.  The information I provided you with my May 6, 2011 letter is correct and consistent with the pending NOD.” Please see that Pacific Capital Bank answers all of the questions above that are copied to the SBA, Congresswoman Lois Capps, Senator Sam Blakeslee, the Santa Barbara District Attorney and local news media!

Subject: RE: Bookout/PCB Mediation

 

Dear Mr. Bookout,

 

As I have stated on a number of occasions, I have found no evidence of fraud in Pacific Capital Bank's handling of your loan nor in its handling of your many defaults on the loan and subsequent attempts to restructure your loan in an effort to help you cure your defaults.  The information I provided you with my May 6, 2011 letter is correct and consistent with the pending NOD.

 

If you would like to discuss ways to cure your default, please let me know your idea.

 

Diana Lee

================================================

 

Mark K. Olson, It is unfortunate that Pacific Capital Bank would want to charge Attorney fees to answer accounting questions of Pacific Capital Bank and that Diana Lee would ignore this fact as Pacific Capital Bank stated May 12, 2008, in regards to asking accounting questions of Pacific Capital Bank!  “The requests you have made, and the delinquencies in the documentation, have resulted in the Bank incurring additional attorney's fees.  As a result, you are requested to forward to Pacific Capital Bank, c/o Ms. Sheffield, a check in the amount of $750.00 to cover anticipated attorney's fees incurred in responding to the requests for information.  Of course, this amount is only an estimate, and if the fees exceed the amount received, an additional deposit will be required. Please forward the deposit as soon as possible so that the Bank can begin work on the research you have requested.”

 

In prior attempts to obtain a proper accounting; Pacific Capital Bank has stated December 30, 2010  "Second, you asked for an amortization schedule.  As I indicated in my email of last week, I will provide information on your agreement that you will communicate only with me, rather than sending emails to a number of persons at Pacific Capital Bank.  As you have not made that agreement, I do not feel that any further response is necessary.  I believe that the request that you communicate with me is reasonable and necessary, and we will insist on that condition.  (In the event that you do agree to this request, please let me know exactly what you mean by an "amortization schedule".) Is this how Pacific Capital Bank treats all of their customers who ask for an accounting of their loans?

 

Pacific Capital Bank has stated January 4, 2011 affecting all PCB Banking, Customers!  "I will, of course, respond to any written communications.  However, as I have previously advised you, I will not be providing any substantive responses until such time as you agree, in writing, that you will communicate exclusively with me for the purpose of communicating to Pacific Capital Bank regarding your loan.  You have persisted in your efforts to involve other Bank employees in this matter.  As a result, I remain unwilling to provide you any information that the Bank is not required to provide you.  (An amortization schedule is not information the Bank is required to provide you.)  If there is anything further at this time, please let me know, in writing."

 

Pacific Capital Bank has stated March 4, 2011 showing PCB Loan Accounting Fraud and Breach Of Contract with the May 6, 2011 Amortization Schedule prepared just two months later by Pacific Capital Bancorp!  “In light of your claims, we have reexamined the computation of the amount owing under the terms of the promissory note you executed.  (As you will recall, by virtue of the fact of the default under the forbearance, the note terms were reinstated.)  In fact, it turns out that the notice of default understates the amount that was due at the time of the recording of the notice of the default.  The amount owing was $97,369.07, not the $96,434.82 set forth in the NOD.”

 

Mark K. Olson, Why has it taken Pacific Capital Bank from July 2007 to May 6, 2011 to acknowledge the Loan Modification Fraud and Breach of Contract committed by Pacific Capital Bancorp since 2007?  Pacific Capital Bank stated August 1, 2007   “The proper Bank officials will look into the computerized records and determine if there are any problems.”

 

Mr. Mark K. Olson, it is unfortunate that Pacific Capital Banks actions since 2007 are now made public and known to the SBA, Congresswoman Lois Capps, Senator Sam Blakeslee, the Santa Barbara District Attorney and local News Media, however Pacific Capital Bank is going to have to stop hiding behind their Attorneys for their Mortgage Modification Fraud, Breach of Contract and the of the Oceano Nursery SBA loan principal theft since 2007! 

 

Mr. Olson and Pacific Capital Bank---- Again, please answer the questions asked of Pacific Capital Bank Yourself and all Pacific Capital Bank Board Directors!  Diana Lee is not competent to answer the questions of Pacific Capital Bank as seen at www.pacificcapitalbnak.co and www.santabarbarabankandtrust.co

 

Sincerely

Mr. Bookout:

With regard to your request for an itemization of the amounts which comprise the delinquency amount set forth in the notices of default recently recorded, the amount is calculated as follows:

UNPAID PAYMENTS

10 Deferred 10/2006 - 7/2007                            $37,801.09

Jan-Dec 2010                                            $49,452.72

                                  Total:                                $87,253.81

Late charges to 11/16/10                                $4,858.96

Appraisal Fees                                          $4,050.00

Legal Fees                                              $50.00

UCC Search Fees                                         $15.50

                Amount shown on NOD                             $96,228.27     

With regard to the questions you have been propounding which you chose to resolve through complaint to the OCC, this email will advise you that Pacific Capital Bank has responded to the OCC within their prescribed timeframes, and we assume they will follow up with you based upon that response.  Any issues you have with the Bank’s response to the OCC, or with the OCC’s response, should be taken up with the OCC.

With regard to your request for an amortization schedule, an amortization schedule is necessarily based upon assumptions, such as a static interest rate, and assumes strict performance by the borrower as required by the terms of the loan.  In the case of your loan, the significant defaults and the agreements that have been made not only make any previously-issued amortization not relevant to the loan’s current status, but they preclude a current amortization, since the defaults are continuing, additional charges are being incurred, and the time to maturity is decreasing,

among other things.  Should the loan be put in a performing status, we could address amortization schedule issues at that time.

Finally, you continue to state that Pacific Capital Bank is required to respond to you in a time period you specify and that if there is no response, you are entitled to assume that a statement you have made is accurate or otherwise has been validated by Pacific Capital Bank.  Again, I reiterate that Pacific Capital Bank’s lack of a response to a communication from you within any time period specified by you is not an admission by the Bank that any statement you have made is accurate or is adopted by the Bank.  And, if you were ever to claim to any third party that Pacific Capital Bank’s failure to respond to a communication from you was an admission of some kind by the Bank, that claim would be knowingly false on your part and could be, depending on the circumstances, libelous, a matter the Bank takes very seriously. 

As before, I remain your contact point for questions directed to Pacific Capital Bank.  Please note the amount required to cure your loan default has increased since the amounts provided in the Notice of Default.  Should you be interested in curing the default, please advise
