<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I think it's a straight quiet title action, LLC as plaintiff, to remove clouds on title based on the false QCD, which in fact transferred no interest to the property because it was not executed by an authorized
member of the LLC. I don't know what to call that as a cause of action; last time I did it I just called it a quiet title based on a deed that transferred no interest. The deed is simply a cloud on title.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The question I don't know about is whether the defendant's lenders qualify under bona fide purchaser doctrine, if defendant had enough "apparent authority" to execute the QCD and so lenders could rely on the
public record in making their loans. (Though they'd all be subordinate to the LLC's first mortgage, of course, since that was never removed.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">This is a new one for me. Member that is NOT the Manager of LLC drafts and executes a QCD on LLC owned real property claiming to have managerial authority when he does not (misrepresentation
to Notary as well). To make matters even worse, he transfers the property to himself. Then he also files mortgages against the real estate to himself, personally. The real estate is already encumbered by DOT to original lender to LLC. Of course this all violates
the transfer of beneficially ownership clause and lender knows about the transfer but has not taken action yet. So, what is our action to bring? It really is not what is typically considered a fraudulent transfer, although certainly a transfer by fraud; is
there such a thing as theft by deed? Since it deals with real property can it be considered a conversion????<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The entire set of transactions is so egregious and hard to believe, that my mind is frankly stunned. Hoping one or more of you have some guidance for me………..<o:p></o:p></span></p>
