Modeling A Response To Predatory Lending: The New Jersey Home Ownership Security Act Of 2002, Baher Azmy, David J. Reiss Jan 2003

Modeling A Response To Predatory Lending: The New Jersey Home Ownership Security Act Of 2002, Baher Azmy, David J. Reiss

Cornell Law Faculty Working Papers

Professor Baher Azmy and Professor David Reiss document how predatory home lending practices have become rampant throughout the country and, notably, among low- and moderate-income and African American communities in New Jersey. Their article analyzes this emerging problem as a sometimes devastating side effect of the rapid increase in American home ownership, an otherwise almost completely desirable phenomenon. Because predatory lending has been so difficult to define, states have struggled to regulate it. New Jersey, building on the work of a few other leading states, has drafted what many consider to be the new standard for predatory lending legislation, the …

New Limits To The Application Of The Consumer Protection Act—State V. Schwab, 103 Wn. 542, 693 P.2d 108 (1985), Lora L. Pesto Jan 1986

New Limits To The Application Of The Consumer Protection Act—State V. Schwab, 103 Wn. 542, 693 P.2d 108 (1985), Lora L. Pesto

Washington Law Review

In State v. Schwab, the Washington Supreme Court removed residential landlord-tenant transactions from the purview of the Washington Consumer Protection Act (CPA). Under Schwab, litigants may no longer invoke the generous remedial provisions of the CPA to enforce tenants' rights granted by the Residential Landlord-Tenant Act. Schwab also eliminated state prosecution of residential landlord-tenant actions. The reasoning used by the court could prevent the application of the CPA to new areas of commerce, and may also limit its application in areas where it previously has been considered fully applicable.

The Comment will also describe how other states, either legislatively or judicially, have resolved the inequity of forfeitures.


The Validity Of Ordinances Limiting Condominium Conversion, Michigan Law Review Nov 1979

The Validity Of Ordinances Limiting Condominium Conversion, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In 1974, the New York Times ran a front-page story about the dilemma of an elderly woman who lived in a Washington, D.C., apartment building that was being converted into a condominium. On a limited budget, she faced the choice of either finding a new place to live in the tight Washington housing market or paying $2000 down and $422.50 in monthly installments for the same one-bedroom apartment she had been renting for $ 155.00 per month. The woman's situation is not unusual: a federal study estimates that owners have recently converted 60,000 rental apartment units to condominiums, and real …
