Judge Denies VA's Motion To Dismiss Man's Suit Over Foreclosure, Home Sale

Mealey's (August 31, 2020, 1:30 PM EDT) -- MOBILE, Ala. — A federal judge in Alabama on Aug. 26 denied a motion filed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) seeking dismissal of a man's lawsuit over the foreclosure of his home, the department's subsequent sale of the property for more than it was worth and its refusal to disburse the profit, finding that additional briefing is needed on the waiver of sovereign immunity and that the plaintiff still has time to properly serve the department with a copy of the complaint (Frank H. Eaton v. Department of Veterans Affairs, No. 20-354, S.D. Ala., 2020 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 154874)....
