This highlights one of the miseries of bank entity shifts - when a lender craters, or is bought, and the holder of the note is not the original beneficiary, but there is never any actual assignment recorded anywhere, then we look on the internet and various websites that we have found over time, trying to find out whom to sue. And it's not just WA MU, it can be difficult with a takeover by an entity with different divisions, such as Springleaf - do you sue Springleaf Financial, or Springleaf Home Equity? You can't call them and ask them - I have tried. And the original may or may not still have an agent anywhere for service of process. WA MU doesn't. If not, then the only safe way to proceed I have learned, the hard way, is to try my best to figure it out, serve that entity, and also get an order for service by publication on any other entities, including the original lender. Then when the entity you figured out defaults, and you have nowhere else to turn, then you have service by publication on all other entities claiming an interest. But the declaration in support of the motion for service by publication needs to have a whole lot of evidence of trying to find the right entity. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>The Washington State Supreme Court had the chance to give some grit to our recording laws with all of the MERS cases, but didn't.
