Callahan & Blaine Obtains Preliminary Injunction Against Foreclosure of 315 SFR Lots in San Jacinto

PBJT935927 2008 Investments LLC v. Salas, Riverside County Superior Court Case No. RIC 1104515: Callahan & Blaine represented the owners of a 315-unit development in San Jacinto, California which was being foreclosed upon by certain private lenders.  Callahan & Blaine attorneys Stephen Blaine and Christopher Queally filed a lawsuit against the lenders and the mortgage broker who had arranged the loan on behalf of the plaintiffs, PBJT935927 2008 Investments LLC, et al., for fraud, economic duress, breach of contract, and other causes of action.  Callahan & Blaine discovered that the mortgage broker defendant who had arranged the loan failed to disclose that his real estate license had been cancelled by the California Department of Real Estate and that he had been convicted of felony charges related to a real estate Ponzi scheme.  Callahan & Blaine was able to obtain a Temporary Restraining Order the day before the foreclosure based on the usurious, multi-million dollar loan, and secured a Preliminary Injunction prohibiting foreclosure of the development approximately one month later.  Callahan & Blaine convinced the Court to set a small bond for the Injunction, despite the enormous size of the development based on the usurious interest allegedly due and the wrongful conduct of the defendants.
