House finance regulator mulls action on "eminent domain" mortgage seizures

The incident highlights the risks inherent in Greece's drive to crack down on rampant tax evasion by digitizing tax administration. The country's bureaucratic and inefficient tax collection system is one of the reasons it slid into a debt crisis. Modernizing it is a key element of its 240-billion-euro EU/IMF bailout.

On Wednesday, an investor group filed a federal lawsuit against the northern California city in a bid to stop the plan. The lawsuit was filed in a northern California court by mortgage bond trustees Wells Fargo and Deutsche Bank on behalf of an investor group that includes Pacific Investment Management Co, or PIMCO, BlackRock Inc and DoubleLine Capital LP. The use of eminent domain powers to restructure distressed mortgages has been debated by communities for more than a year and has been controversial with Wall Street banks and bond investors from the start. Alfred Pollard, FHFA's general counsel, said in a memorandum posted on the agency's website on Thursday that the uncertainty surrounding the use of eminent domain raises several issues, including its possible impact on the mortgage market and potential losses that Fannie Mae and Freddie Ma could incur. "There is a rational basis to conclude that the use of eminent domain by localities to restructure loans for borrowers that are "underwater" on their mortgages presents a clear threat to the safe and sound operations of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Home Loan Banks as provided in federal law," Pollard wrote.
