I don't hate to say it. You're wrong.

Beyond one read of a 5 page appellate decision it is unlikely you have any other knowledge relating to the case, the issues, the arguments and/or the facts. In such instance it would be difficult for anyone to form a more ignorant, or less informed, opinion. The case has lasted more than 3 years and involves close to 1000 pages of pleadings.

That would be 1000 pages of pleadings by you that the appelate court ignored beyond whatever documentation was invovled in proving the lack of standing? The bank filed nothing according to the appelate court and the appelate court made a specific point that they were not ruling in your favor beyond the standing issue.

Unless you have something to render your mortgage contract void, basically it would have to violate state or federal laws on the matter or you were forced to sign it, or can prove that Duetsche Bank doesn't actually own the mortgage you are facing summary judgement again.

If you're interested in participating in a meaningful discussion about this I am willing to make myself available to you for such. Please let me know when you've acquired, read and have become thoroughly familiar with the entire case history, the rules of procedure, evidence and the statutes local to the case, the precedential decisions coming out of courts in other jurisdictions (state, federal and bankruptcy courts) for the past 3 years, as well as a minimum of 1000  recent and antiquated cases from the prior mentioned differing jurisdictions and courts (2000 cases would be of more benefit to you, particularly because you'll need to cover legal issues and arguments not related solely to foreclosure - If you need a list of suggested topics I'll be happy to provide one for you), any cases cited as authority in the cases you choose to read (and with any appellate level cases you'll need to read any and all lower court decisions and, if possible, the original trial court pleadings, and of course to shepardize any of the cases you do read and to follow up on any cases find in that research as well). Oh, you'll also need to review 5000 or more documents available in public land offices (deeds, deeds of trust, mortgages, assignments of mortgage, satisfactions of mortgage, liens, lien releases, etc.), and those from numerous jurisdictions as well.

Just let me know when you've caught up so that we can engage in discussions from a position of equal competency  and knowledge and we can see about scheduling a time convenient to us both.

I have to agree with DomKen here. It likely won't be another three years and 1000 pages of filings so I am thinking yes, you won this round but soon...you will not win the next one. Then they will be either collecting from you, renegotiating with you if you are financially under water on your house or...auctioning your house.

¶ 10 Because we conclude that the court properly exercised its discretion in reopening the foreclosure action, we reject the Canos' corollary argument that the Bank was required to serve a new summons and complaint to commence new foreclosure proceedings. We turn, then, to the summary judgment proceedings. ¶ 11 We review summary judgment de novo, applying the same methodology as the circuit court. See Green Spring Farms v. Kersten, 136 Wis. 2d 304, 314-16, 401 N.W.2d 816 (1987). We first examine the pleadings to determine whether the plaintiff has stated a claim. Id. at 315. The Bank's complaint asserts that Diane Cano entered into a mortgage agreement with Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., as a nominee for S&L Investment Lending, Inc., in July 2006. It asserts that the Bank is the current holder of the mortgage and Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., is the servicer of the mortgage. It states that the Canos failed to make their mortgage payments from January 2007 to the date of the complaint in April 2007. Thus, we conclude that the complaint states a claim for foreclosure. Diane Cano answered, denying that she had failed to make the payments. ¶ 12 Our next step in the summary judgment methodology is to examine whether the summary judgment submissions establish that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See id. We begin by examining the Bank's summary judgment submissions to determine whether it has established a prima facie case for summary judgment. See Palisades Collection LLC v. Kalal, 2010 WI App 38, ¶ 9, 324 Wis. 2d 180, 781 N.W.2d 503 (citation omitted). Only if the Bank has made a prima facie case do we turn to the Canos' submissions to determine if there are any material facts in dispute. See id. ¶ 13 The Bank submitted two affidavits to support its motion for summary judgment: one by an attorney for the Bank, and one by an agent for BAC Home Loans Servicing, L.P., f/k/a Countrywide Home Loans Servicing, L.P. ¶ 14 The attorney averred that Diane Cano executed a note secured by a mortgage on her property in July 2006; that an assignment of the mortgage to the Bank was recorded in June 2007; and that the Canos had failed to make the January 2007 and subsequent mortgage payments, leading the Bank to file this foreclosure action in April 2007. The attorney attached the following documents to his affidavit: the mortgage assignment; a statement of the Canos' mortgage payment history for September 2006 to May 2009 generated by Bank of America Home Loans on June 2, 2009, and indicating that the Canos' last mortgage payment was for December 2006; and a notice of default and acceleration Countrywide sent to Diane Cano in February 2007. ¶ 15 The BAC agent averred that he had access to the financial records for the Canos' mortgage; that Diane Cano executed a mortgage to Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., acting as nominee for S&L Investment Lending, Inc.; and that the Canos had failed to make their January 2007 and subsequent mortgage payments. The agent did not attach any documents to his affidavit. ¶ 16 We conclude that the Bank's affidavits do not establish a prima facie case for summary judgment. Affidavits supporting a summary judgment motion must be based on personal knowledge and "set forth such evidentiary facts as would be admissible in evidence."[4] WIS. STAT. § 802.08(3). Nothing in the attorney's affidavit indicates that the attorney's averments as to the Canos' payment history are based on personal knowledge. To the extent that the affidavit relies on the attached payment history with Bank of America, we conclude that the affidavit does not set forth the facts necessary to establish a prima facie case that the bank's purported payment history would be admissible at trial. ¶ 17 As we explained in Palisades, an affidavit must establish a prima facie case that attached payment statements are admissible evidence under an exception to the hearsay rule to support a motion for summary judgment. See Palisades, 324 Wis. 2d 180, ¶ 11 & n.3; WIS. STAT. § 908.01(3) (defining "hearsay" as "a statement, other than one made by the declarant while testifying at the trial or hearing, offered in evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted") and § 908.02 (hearsay generally inadmissible). Here, the only arguably applicable exception to the hearsay rule is the exception for business records under WIS. STAT. § 908.03(6) (records "made at or near the time by, or from information transmitted by, a person with knowledge, all in the course of a regularly conducted activity, as shown by the testimony of the custodian or other qualified witness" are not excluded by hearsay rule). Thus, for the statement of the Canos' payments to support a motion for summary judgment, the affidavit must establish that the affiant "is qualified to testify that: (1) the records were made at or near the time by, or from information transmitted by, a person with knowledge; and (2) this was done in the course of a regularly conducted activity." Palisades, 324 Wis. 2d 180, ¶ 15. The attorney's affidavit contains no such averments. ¶ 18 The BAC agent's affidavit is similarly flawed. The agent avers that his knowledge of the Canos' default on their mortgage is based on his access to the financial records for the Canos' mortgage, yet no financial documents are attached to the affidavit. Even if we assume the BAC agent is referring to the statement attached to the attorney's affidavit, the agent's affidavit fails to set forth the necessary facts to establish a prima facie case for the admissibility of the statement. The agent's affidavit does not contain any facts to show that the agent is qualified to testify that the statement generated by Bank of America on June 2, 2009, was "made at or near the time by, or from information transmitted by, a person with knowledge," or that "this was done in the course of a regularly conducted activity."[5] Id. We conclude that the Bank has not established a prima facie case for summary judgment.[6] Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings. By the Court.—Judgment reversed and cause remanded for proceedings consistent with this opinion. This opinion will not be published. See WIS. STAT. RULE 809.23(1)(b)5. [1] All references to the Wisconsin Statutes are to the 2007-08 version unless otherwise noted. [2] The transcript of the hearing indicates that only Mario Cano appeared at the hearing, although Diane Cano later implied in a letter to the court that she was present at the hearing, as well. [3] In initially opposing the Bank's foreclosure complaint, the Canos submitted documents indicating the Canos made their mortgage payments to S&L Investment Lending, Inc., through April 2007. While those documents are in the record, they were not submitted to the court in response to the Bank's motion for summary judgment. [4] In Palisades Collection LLC v. Kalal, 2010 WI App 38, ¶ ¶ 12-15, 324 Wis. 2d 180, 781 N.W.2d 503, we declined to resolve the parties' dispute over whether our review of the circuit court's decision on the admissibility of the summary judgment material was de novo or discretionary, because no reasonable view of the affidavit established that the evidence was admissible. We reach the same conclusion here. [5] In addition, the assignment attached to the Bank's counsel's affidavit shows that the alleged default from January to April 2007 occurred prior to the mortgage assignment to the Bank in May 2007. Thus, a reasonable inference is that the agent for the Bank's servicer, BAC, did not have personal knowledge of how the payment records for January to April 2007 were made. [6] Because we conclude that the Bank has not established a prima facie case for summary judgment, we need not examine the Canos' summary judgment submissions. Additionally, we need not address the Canos' argument that the circuit court erred by granting summary judgment upon the Bank's motion for reconsideration without providing the required twenty-day notice under Wis. Stat. § 802.08(2).
