Defendants JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”) and Mortgage Electronic Systems, Inc. (“MERS”) seek to dismiss as legally and túne barred plaintiffs Edward Hamilton (“Mr. Hamilton”) and Anne Marie Hamilton’s (“Mrs. Hamilton’s”) claims arising from foreclosure of their Oakhurst, California residence (“property”). Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton appear to chiefly oppose dismissal in that Chase and MERS (collectively “defendants”) did not respond to Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton’s request for documents and do not “own” the property to permit foreclosure. This Court considered defendants’ F.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss on the record and VACATES the November 1, 2010 hearing, 2010 WL 4483476 , pursuant to Local Rule 230(g).
