    Strong arm powers: for want of an “s” the mortgage was lost
    22 July 2014

    Hardesty v. Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. (In re Boothe), 510 B.R. 154 (Bankr. S.D. Ohio 2013) –

    A chapter 7 trustee successfully sought to avoid a mortgage using his “strong arm” powers on the basis that the mortgage was not properly acknowledged. Once again a mortgagee paid dearly for sloppy execution of a document.
