Thanks Dr!
I just read the first few pages. I would like to see a list of the detailed claims against the debtors. The FDIC says it far out weighs the amounts on deposit; 4 billion or more.
Interesting... the deposit account didn't belong to WMB, the FDIC seized and sold WMB to JPM. Now, the money belonging to WMI, WMB's holding company, is being held as though it was WMB and the Purchase and Sales Agreement, P&A, according to this filing protects JPM, the receiver, from being sued by WMI.
So, if this logic holds up; the FDIC can take holding company property, IF, they can get their hands on it, oh, and they can keep it.
So, how do these funds get taken? How do the records belonging to the bank holding company get seized...? Well, people with badges show up and either physically take the computers and hard copy files, and/or they freeze accounts with usernames and passwords or threaten those responsible for executing transactions on certain accounts with legal action if they were to make a transaction go through after the seizure notice.
The court and the judges will have to decide, in plain language, why the FDIC can not go back and "fix" this in JPM's favor or the FDIC's favor. Or the court and judges will have to explain in detail why the POSSIBLE offsets are enough to justify in the eyes of the law, the theft that was committed and now is being defended by the Federal Deposit and Insurance Corporation.
I think Sheila Bair should be very apologetic, publicly, to all Washington State citizens, and all those financially damaged by this seizure and sale.
