1 Schedule F making the sum now zero. The discharge of the unsecured debt held at all times by a
2 Security Exchange Commission Trust and still trading since January 6, 2006. Federal Home
3 Loan Mortgage Corporation or the first assignee being the Security Exchange Trust still in
4 possession of the unsecured debt never had beneficial interest in the of a paper note or paper
5 deed of trust on January 6, 2006 (as evidenced by public land records on January 6, 2006). In
6 September 2009, Anglin Flewelling Rasmussen and Aldridge Pite Attorneys committed fraud on
7 the court claiming Wells Faro Bank owned a valid secured paper note and paper deed of trust.
8 The attorneys lied to the Federal Bankruptcy Court. The attorney knew that a Wall Street trust
9 held the unsecured debt without possession of the paper note and paper deed of trust. The
10 attorneys used a fraudulent Assignment of Deed of Trust ( signed for a dead State of California
11 foreign corporation GN Mortgage LLC) in the Bankruptcy court and received bankruptcy orders
12 under color of law as affirmed by Judge Robert Kwan. On 12/7/2011, the attorney did a re-do
13 Assignment of Deed of Trust to fix the fraud on the court document and failed to tell the BK
14 court of their fraud actions of 12/7/2011. Lopez discharged the debt as unsecured May 2012.
15 Lopez planned to settle with parties with no authority by filing a BK 20 as directed by Judge
16 Kwan in May 2014. Dean Rallis of Anglin Flewelling Rasmussen cried like a baby to the
17 substituted BK judge in May 2014 about the BK 20. The BK judge an ex- BofA judge who was
18 recently removed from her post dismissed my BK 20 without any just reason. Judge Reimer and
19 other Riverside Court administrators continue to violate the Federal Injunction pursuant to 11
20 USC 524 (a) (2) and now makes the Riverside at risk for claims.

2 I. INTRODUCTION
3 Plaintiff, FEDERAL HOME LOAN MORTGAGE CORPORATION (herein after
4 referred to as the "FHLMC") lacks standing to sue and has falsely filed an illegal
5 summons and complaint for breach of contract and common counts under an agreement in
6 which the debt is in dispute between the FHLMC and Valerie Ann Lopez, Defendant.
7 William M. Tezak (herein after referred to as “LOPEZ''), disputes the alleged right and
8 possession that FHLMC claims to have to my home based on underlying principles and
9 procedures for property ownership under Generally Accepted Auditing Standards. The
10 summons and complaint purports to assert California State Court jurisdiction over
11 Defendant LOPEZ and venue within Riverside. However, Defendant LOPEZ did not accept
12 or consent to the violation of the Federal Injunction. Plaintiff does not have standing sue
13 without expressed consent, pursuant to California Civil Code §1565. In addition, the
14 attorneys have violated CA Business and Profession Code 668 by suing individuals who are
15 related to Mortgage Enterprises Investments and relating the bad seed individuals to my
16 initial trustee Mortgage Enterprise Investments as a way put my deed in bad shade and gain
17 favor with the court. The subject deed is a valid deed and was reviewed by County of Orange
18 District Attorney, County Counsel and Orange and Riverside Recorders Office. My deed was
19 recommended by a respected Forensic Accountant and author . The Contract
20 Clause prohibits state governments from specifically legislating to interfere with (or
21 usurp) private contract rights. The complaint and rulings of this court have allowed the
22 perpetuation of a fraud upon the court and entry of void orders. Pursuant to Defendants
23 Constitutional rights to due process and statutory laws, as to California Code of Civil
24 Procedure §473(d), Defendant can bring at anytime a motion to vacate a default or void
25 order(s) where a violation of rights and law result in void decrees, as a matter of law.

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 II. Background
2 December 3, 2021 Plaintiff and the court proceeded with prove uphearing knowing
3 that a 170.1 was filed with the court in the morning of December 3, 2021 by Valerie Lopez.
4 Lopez called the clerk’s office. Lopez was assisted by the staff due to the urgency related to
5 170.1 recusal and confirmed that Judge Riemer’s office would be notified of the170.1.
6 Lopez was confined to work at home and employer will confirm that Lopez called in sick on
7 11/28/2021 showing symptoms of COVID. For this reason, Lopez was not able to serve the
8 170.1 upon Judge Riemer on December 3, 2021. Lopez filed the 170.1 due to Riemer’s
10 On 12/2/2021 at 6 a.m. and then again at approx. 2 p.m.( to correct items at the clerks
11 request), Lopez filed a motion to continue the prove up hearing until Lopez’s Motion to
12 Vacate Judgment was heard. Lopez motion is based 473d fraud on the court and violation of
11 USC 524 (a) (2). I related in my motion that I would have a forensic accountant to present
13
accounting records of the discharged the unsecured debt. On December 2, 2021 at 2:34 PM,
14
Judge Riemer’s clerk called and informed me that Judge Riemer had vacated my ex-parte
15
motion which was to be on 12/3/2021 at8:30. My request was reasonable based on violation
16
of 11USC 524(a) (2).
17
At the 12/3/2021 1:30 PM, Judge Riemer told Lopez that she should violate COVID
18
state rules and deliver the170 regardless of COVID quarantine status of Lopez. Judge Riemer
19
stated “the court is now open”. Lopez informed Judge Riemer that the clerk staff devoted
20
close to 15 minutes finding 170.1 document, and the clerk staff expedited the 170.1 to Judge
21
Riemer. Judge Riemer stated that he would proceed with the prove up hearing and strike his
22
own 170.1 in violation CCP§170.3 (c ) (3). The court appears to have entered a judgment,
23
against the Defendant. The moving defendants is now asking for a set aside and vacate that
24
judgement and, if entered, default judgment, as well as an order quashing service of the
25
Summons for lack of jurisdiction. Any order granted to Plaintiff on 12/3/2021 is void. The
26
defendant moved expedient following dismissal of her Ex-Parte Motionon12/2/2021. The
27
170.1 was filed in the morning of 12/3/2021 and the clerk’s verified receipt and transport of
28

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 170.1 at approximately 12:30 p.m. Judge Riemer is aware of the Stay of Proceedings to
2 Enforce a judgment based on 11 USC 524 ( a) ( 2) and should have been amendable to the
3 170.1. The opposing attorneys’ attempt to create a taxable action for Lopez has created a
4 punitive damage claim for me. The fraudulent1099 Abandonment filings are also support for
5 punitive damages in Lopez’s favor. The court is now joining up with the opposing attorneys
6 in getting penalized for creating a taxable action after the discharge of the unsecured debt.
7 The sum of the tangible note is now zero. The opposing attorneys attempt to reconnect the
8 tangible note with a sum of zero to the debt is in violation of US Treasury Regulations and
9 Securities and Exchange Act of 1933. If you bake a cake and you realize that you forgot to
10 put the eggs in, it is too late. The non payment of taxes paid on funds collected from Lopez is
11 another US Treasury regulation violation based on underlying principles and procedures for
12 property ownership under Generally Accepted Auditing Standards. This judgment must be
vacated for the protection of the State of California and County of Riverside.

III. LEGAL ARGUMENT
14
15 A. THE CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION GUARANTEES INALIENABLE
RIGHTS.
16
1. Declaration of Rights – Article 1, Section 1, states in pertinent part, as
17
follows:
18
All people are by nature free and independent and have inalienable rights.
19 Among these are enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing,
and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness, and
20 privacy.
21
2. Declaration of Rights – Article 1, Section 7, states in pertinent part, as
22 follows:
23 (a) A person may not be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process
of law or denied equal protection of the laws; provided, that nothing contained
24
herein or elsewhere in this Constitution imposes upon the State of California or any
25 public entity, board, or official any obligations or responsibilities which exceed
those imposed by the Equal Protection Clause of the 14 th Amendment to the United
26 States Constitution …
27

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 The Default and any Default Judgment of this court clearly were made to deprive
2 Defendant of her right to equal protection of the law on the merits and issues before the court
3 under applicable statutes and the Judge of this Court is ignoring these rights, privileges and
4 immunities by asserting jurisdiction over Defendant where jurisdiction does not exist, as a matter
5 of law. Any orders of this court obtained by deceit are clearly made to aid and abet a fraud upon
6 the court and allow Plaintiff and its attorney of record to perpetuate illegal conduct as a result in
8
There is no record of any transfer of title, deed, lien, mortgage, or note recorded with
9
the Riverside County, California that show that the plaintiff has any valid claim to be of a
10
beneficial interest in the tangible instruments on the day it received the debt on 1/6/2006 to
11
be of standing in this matter. GN Mortgage LLC, Wells Fargo and Federal Home Loan
12
Corporation are in violation of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933 in regards to the
13
matter of securitizing mortgages in non compliance statutory laws applicable to tangible
14
instruments as executed on January 6, 2021 pursuant to Forensic Accounting. On 1/6/2006,
15
no assignment, transfer or other contractual document was ever recorded with the Riverside
16
County, California documenting that the plaintiff had any claim to the mortgage. FHLMC, et
17
al pleaded to the securitization of the mortgage in the matter with the Federal Housing
18
Financing Agency and additionally to the fact that the securities had no link or value to the
19
tangible mortgages and/or tangible notes themselves. GN Mortgage LLC original lender, et
20
al pleaded in the matter with the Federal Housing Finance Agency that they were fully
21
compensation monetarily by FHLMC at the time of securitization and therefore has suffered
22
no damages. SEC Trust where the unsecured debt was assigned is no longer a going concern
23
and has been removed from its list of subsidiaries, controlled interests, etc. since 2009. The
24
loan on the property in question is not listed in any required filings of the assets of the
25
FHLMC nor any other FLMC, et al other trusts of similar nature. Based upon court and other
26
public records, the forensic accounting would establish that there is no current valid holder of
27
the tangible mortgage and or tangible note at this time, and as such neither the plaintiff nor
28
4
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 any other related party has any standing in this matter. In effect the mortgage/note is null and
2 void as there is no beneficial owner in existence. After verifying the SEC trust records and
3 recognizing the fraudulent documents created by the opposing attorneys, I used my head and
4 I listed the debt as unsecured debt. The BK trustee released the claim on my home and the
5 debt was discharged as unsecured debt. Plaintiffs are in violation of 11 USC 524 (a ) 2 and
6 have slandered the tile to the home of Valerie Lopez – Plaintiff and others have made false
7 claims to the public.
8 3. B&P Code § 17538.5, governs how a CMRA must operate. It sets forth requirements and
obligations.
9
It imparts several duties on a CMRA, and upon receipt of service, it shields them from
10 liability to the box holder. As a condition to accept mail for a mail receiving customer, the
11 CMRA must accept 2 forms of ID before renting the customer a box. The mail receiving
customer must sign an agreement affirmatively appointing the CMRA as its agent for service.
12 That form, or any amendment or correction to the form, contains a home or personal address.
Lopez never agreed to permit the commercial mail house accept service for her.
13
Because of this affirmative appointment of the CMRA as its agent for service, it could be
14 argued that service on the CMRA is a personal service, not a substituted service. Service
15 under B&P Code § 17538.5(d) could be construed as a form of personal service, akin to CCP
§ 416.90 wherein a defendant authorizes another to accept service on their behalf. This can
16 only be valid if – and only if – the 3d party, here, the CMRA, fully complies with the B&P §
17538.5(d).
17
Under B&P Code § 17538.5(d), the CMRA is required to
18
accept any service of process for the mail receiving customer for up to 2 years after
19 the customer terminates the agreement;
20 Within 48 hours after receiving process the CMRA must place a copy of the process
in the box of the mail receiving customer (unless the agreement has been terminated);
21 Within 5 days, the CMRA must mail a copy of the served documents to the mail
receiving customer to their last known home or personal address;
22 The CMRA must purchase a Certificate of Mailing (PS Form 3817) for $1.35 which
23
24
25
26
27
can only be obtained by standing in line
28 and mailing the documents at a US Postal Service office;
5
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
If the CMRA has complied with these requirements, the CMRA must provide any
1
involved party a declaration under penalty of perjury of the mailing and attach a copy of
2 the Certificate of Mailing, stamped by the USPS.
3 Service under the new CCP § 415.20(c) is deemed effected 10 days after the CMRA mails
the copy to the defendant at the last known home or personal address on the agreement form.
4
The latter never occurred and it was a failed service. Consequently, the court lacked
5 jurisdiction to order Valerie Lopez to ANSWER and comply with a defective service.
6 CCP Section 415.20 Mathew Pero claims that he mailed the law suit to the mail house,but
failed to document the 3 to 4 attempts required of 415.20 before permitted to mailing
7 complaint to me.
8 The service was defective as I explained in my initial Motion to Quash.
9 4. A judge whose impartiality has been challenged and who refuses recusal may not rule on
10 either the disqualification or the sufficiency in law or fact of the statement of disqualification.
CCP§170.3(c ) (5 ); Garcia v Superior Court(1984) 156 CA 3d 670, 680, 203 CR 290. The
11 question disqualification must be determined by another judge who has been agreed on by
all parties who have appeared, or if they cannot agree, by a judge who was selected by the
12 Chairperson of the Judicial Council. This is the2nd time that Judge Riemer has striked his
13 own 170.1 regardless of knowing that he is administering a case that violates 11 USC 524 (a)
2.
14
15
16
17 B. THE STANDARDS GOVERNING VOID ORDERS AND JUDGMENTS.
18
19 Motions to vacate void judgments may be made at any time after judgment. (County
20 of Ventura v. Tillett, (1982) 133 Cal. App. 3d 105, 110.).
21
1. Legal Definition: Black's Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition, page 1574:
22
23 Void judgment. One which has no legal force or effect, invalidity of which may
be asserted by any person whose rights are affected at any time and at any place
24 directly or collaterally. Reynolds v. Volunteer State Life Ins. Co., Tex.Civ.App., 80
S.W.2d 1087, 1092. One which from its inception is and forever continues to be
25 absolutely null, without legal efficacy, ineffectual to bind parties or support a right,
of no legal force and effect whatever, and incapable of confirmation, ratification, or
26 enforcement in any manner or to any degree. Judgment is a "void judgment" if
27 court that rendered judgment lacked jurisdiction of the subject matter, or of the
parties, or acted in a manner inconsistent with due process. Klugh v. U.S.,
28 D.C.S.C., 610 F.Supp. 892, 901.
6
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 1. Jurisdiction cannot be conferred by consent of the parties.
14
The interest of justice requires that the equal protection question be answered now, as
15
it forms a Federal question to be instituted and answered later.
16
C. PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE §473(B),
17 THE COURT SHOULD SET ASIDE THIS DEFAULT AND ANY ADVERSE
JUDGMENT OR RULING BASED ON INADVERTENCE, SURPRISE, OR
18 EXCUSABLE NEGLECT.
19
Assuming arguendo that the court has subject-matter jurisdiction and an adverse
20
judgment has been entered, Defendant is entitled to plead his defense for any Inadvertence,
21
Surprise, or Excusable Neglect, Pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §473(b).
22
23 3. Grounds for Relief.
24 On application, the court may, on any terms as may be just, relieve a party or his or
25 her legal representative from a judgment, dismissal, order, or other proceeding taken against
26 him or her through his or her mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect ( Code
27
28
7
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 Civ. Proc. § 473(b). This motion is filed within a reasonable period of time, not exceeding six
2 months after entry of the default.
9
A trial court has wide discretion to grant relief under Code of Civil Procedure Section
10
473 (Berman v. Klassman (1971) 17 Cal. App. 3d 900, 909, 95 Cal. Rptr. 417).
11
6. Liberal Construction of Statute.
12
13 Code of Civil Procedure Section 473(b) is a remedial measure to be liberally
14 construed, and any doubts existing as to the propriety of setting aside a default thereunder
15 will be resolved in favor of a hearing on the merits (Berman v. Klassman (1971) 17 Cal. App.
16 3d 900, 910, 95 Cal. Rptr. 417).
21
1. Motion for Relief From Default for Lack of Actual Notice.
22
23 When service of a summons has not resulted in actual notice to a party in time to
24 defend the action and a default or default judgment has been entered against him or her in the
25 action, the party may serve and file a notice of motion to set aside the default or default
26 judgment and for leave to defend the action ( Code Civ. Proc. § 473.5(a)).
27
2. Court May Grant Relief on Timely Motion if Defendant Not at Fault.
28
8
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 On a finding by the court that the motion was made within the two year time period
2 permitted by Code of Civil Procedure Section 473.5(a) and that his or her lack of actual
3 notice in time to defend the action was not caused by his or her avoidance of service or
4 inexcusable neglect, it may set aside the default or default judgment on whatever terms as
5 may be just and allow the party to defend the action ( Code Civ. Proc. § 473.5(c); Goya v.
6 P.E.R.U. Enterprises (1978) 87 Cal. App. 3d 886, 890–891, 151 Cal. Rptr. 258).
13 Unless inexcusable neglect is clear, the policy favoring trial on the merits prevails
14 over the general rule of deference to the trial court’s exercise of discretion, and doubts are
15 resolved in favor of the application for relief from default (Tunis v. Barrow (1986) 184 Cal.
16 App. 3d 1069, 1079, 229 Cal. Rptr. 389).
17
E. THE COURT SHOULD GRANT DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO SET ASIDE
18 THE DEFAULT AND DEFAULT JUDGMENT, IF ENTERED ON THE
GROUND THAT IT IS VOID BECAUSE, ALTHOUGH ITS INVALIDITY
19 MAY NOT APPEAR FROM AN EXAMINATION OF THE JUDGMENT
ROLL, IT IS NONETHELESS VOID IN FACT IN THAT THE SUMMONS
20 AND COMPLAINT WERE NEVER VALIDLY SERVED ON THE
21 DEFENDANT, AND THE DEFENDANT LACKED ACTUAL NOTICE OF
THIS LAWSUIT.
22
1. Statutory Power to Set Aside Void Judgment.
23
24 The court may, on motion of either party after notice to the other party, set aside any
25 void judgment or order ( Code Civ. Proc. § 473(d)).
26 2. Inherent Power to Set Aside Judgment Not Void on Its Face but Void in
27 Fact.
28
9
MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF
NOTICE AND MOTION TO VACATE VOID ORDERS
1 The law is settled that courts of record have inherent power to set aside a void
2 judgment whether or not it is void on its face (Rogers v. Silverman (1989) 216 Cal. App. 3d
3 1114, 1122, 265 Cal. Rptr. 286). As described in the attached Declaration, the service of the
4 Summons was improper, depriving the court of jurisdiction as to the defendant. Furthermore,
5 the defendant is filing this motion within a reasonable period of time within six months of
19
The court may, on motion of either party after notice to the other party, set aside any
20
void judgment or order ( Code Civ. Proc. § 473(d)).
21
2. Inherent Power to Set Aside Judgment Void on Its Face.

1 A judgment or order is void on its face when its invalidity appears from an
2 examination of the judgment roll (People v. Davis (1904) 143 Cal. 673, 676, 77 P. 651;
3 Carrasco v. Craft (1985) 164 Cal. App. 3d 796, 808, 210 Cal. Rptr. 599).

21 3d 603; Schering Corp. v. Superior Court (1975) 52 Cal. App. 3d 737, 741, 125 Cal. Rptr.

The general appearance after entry of a default judgment by a defendant who was
7
defectively served with summons does not make the defective service retroactively valid (In

Rules, Janove v Bacon , 6 III.2d 245, 249, 218 N.E.2d 207( 1st Dist. 1994)
11
From the commencement of this case, defective service has existed. The
12
prejudice of the court has ignored Lopez’ exposure to the defective service.
13
All rulings and orders are VOID.
14
15 5. Violation of 15 USC 524 (a ) (2 ) makes the court and the opposing both
16 complicit in making a taxable issue on a debt that is zero as confirmed by the
17 Stay of the Proceedings which was accompanied by Lopez’s Federal
18 Injunction listing debt held by Federal Home Mortgage Corporation since
19 January 6,2021 but lacked actual possession of the tangible instruments on
20 January 6,2021. FHLMC failed to appear in the bankruptcy court in fear of
21 being exposed of not having actual possession of tangible instruments and
22 never negotiation and having actual possession of the tangible instruments as
23 required by statutory laws. Wells Fargo and the opposing attorneys then
24 perjured saying that Wells Fargo held the debt with the still note of value
25 when this was a false presentation and sanctionable. The sum of the note is
27 Exchange Act of 1933. Ca Commercial Code 3203d makes clear that all
28 rights were lost by Plaintiff. (D) The transferee obtains no rights under this division and
12

1 has only the rights of a partial assignee. If a transferor purports to transfer less than the entire
2 instrument, negotiation of the instrument does not occur. Affirming again, that Plaintiff in bad
3 faith with opposing attorneys never had standing. All orders and Rulings from the onset of case
4 are VOID.
5
6. Case must be vacated due to attorneys suing people unrelated to deed filed on
6
30160 Merrell Ave Nuevo California. The people sued are related to a case
7
involving Mortgage Enterprises Investments. There are negative court
8
findings related to Mortgage Enterprises Investments. The initial Trustee
9
assigned to the deed filed on subject property is Mortgage Enterprise
10
Investments. The opposing attorneys objective was to confuse the court and
11
label Lopez enemy of the State. The new trustee is now unincorporated
12
association. This deed content and model was reviewed by County of Orange
13 District Attorneys Office and County County Counsel. Opposing attorneys
14 have violated California Business and Profession Code 668. Fraud upon the
15 court In re: Village of Willowbrook, 37 Ill. App.3d 393 (1962)

II. CONCLUSION
18
19 WHEREFORE, Defendant has cited many points and authorities relative to these
20 proceedings that show equal protection of the law has been compromised in a number of ways,
ones which constitute either great prejudice to him or which are patently unlawful, or both.
21
For the aforementioned reasons, Defendant requests to set aside the default, and if
22
applicable, default judgment entered against him and requests that the Service of the Summons
23 be set aside for lack of jurisdiction.
