Piccuta Law Group Handles Appeal to the Ninth Circuit

On January 15th, 2015, the Piccuta Law Group filed an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit of a decision stopping a homeowner’s lawsuit against his mortgage company. The original matter entitled Sharp v. Nationstar, Et Al. was pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California as case number C-14-00831. The lower court’s decision held that the homeowner could not sue his bank or mortgage company because he had failed to include his claims against them in previous bankruptcies he and his wife were involved in.

The Piccuta Law Group did not handle the matter at the lower court level which resulted in the unfavorable decision terminating the homeowner’s lawsuit. Nevertheless, the Piccuta Law Group agreed to handle the appeal after the attorneys who handled the original matter would not agree to do it. The Piccuta Law Group has experience handling ninth circuit appeals and prevailing in those matters.

When attorney Charles Tony Piccuta was asked why his firm decided to handle the appeal, he responded “[i]n this circumstance, the homeowner had nowhere else to turn. His original attorneys were not willing to take on the appeal. We believe the result was unjust and that our client was wrongly deprived his right to prove his case in court. This is something we have experience with and we knew we could help.” The Piccuta Law Group handles matters that other attorneys find too challenging or difficult.
