Neil Garfield continues to advocate rescission, but in light of the state courts resistance to apply the procedure clearly set forth in TILA rescission- homeowners must plan accordingly when pursuing rescission litigation.

It is true that there should not be any litigation where the rescission was sent, received and the “creditor” did nothing for more than 20 days and frequently more than 1 year and even several years. Unfortunately judges are making decisions based upon a presumptive finding of fact that the loan contract was consummated on the date the documents were apparently signed (closing). Once again we are dealing with presumed facts that are most likely untrue.

Despite the Jesinoski decision, the courts are reading into the statute on procedure and saying that various conditions apply when the statute and the Supreme Court say otherwise. All rescissions are effective when mailed regardless of whether or not they are disputed- but it may be some time before the courts fall in line.
