From www.mortgageservicingnews.com/newsletter/stories/?story_id=56 “Judge Manuel L. Real of the Central District of California. In December 2008, Real began holding hearings into the conduct of the law firm that filed at least nine produce-the-note cases pending before him. By the end of January 2009, Real declared the suits to be frivolous, ordered the attorney to repay plaintiffs all monies paid for his services, ordered the attorney and his law firm to pay in excess of $60,000 to five law firms forced to defend the cases he filed, declared the attorney to be a vexatious litigant and barred him from making any future filings in the Central District without the prior written permission of the chief judge.” In 2006,the House Judiciary Committee started an investigation of Real, but did nothing.
