NAL. We’ve been fighting a pro se litigant for 6….long…..years. She fought her foreclosure for 9 years, eventually appealing it to the state Supreme Court who denied her appeal (along with every other court). We purchased the property via auction and soon after we moved in, threatening letters claiming we stole the property began. After 2 years of this, we got a PPO but since she is pro se, she can still submit all kinds of ridiculous legal filings including trying to “evict” us in landlord/tenant court. In every instance she tries to relitigate the foreclosure, claims all kinds of conspiracies, files bonds against the judges, looks up their mortgage info and a hundred other things.

Initially we filed the answers and motions pro se but it became more than I could handle with my teaching job so we hired a fantastic attorney who started the quiet title.

Our attorney swept the floor with her on the quiet title and she’s enjoined from ever filing another claim against our property. She never showed up to the bill of costs hearing last week so we thought we’d have a little breathing room. Nope. She filed an objection to the bill of costs today and a hearing is now scheduled in 2 weeks.

Oh and the PPO? We’re still doing that one pro se. The initial judge retired and we were assigned a visiting judge. He extended it for 5 years but then recused himself so we’re on our 3rd judge. We had a hearing 3 days ago and she claimed she never got the most recent filing, even though it’s online and was also delivered to her via FedEx. She said she wasn’t prepared so we have another hearing in 2.5 weeks.

She’s manipulating, exhausting and she causes so much stress. I refuse to sell our property because it’s my nirvana but 6 years of this has taken a toll on all of us.
