MARTINOTTI, DISTRICT JUDGE
Before this Court is Defendants’ Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (“Deutsche”)
and Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC’s (“Ocwen”) (collectively, “Defendants”) Motion to Dismiss for
Lack of Jurisdiction and for Failure to State a Claim. (ECF No. 20.) Plaintiffs Frank Wohlers and
Janet Wohlers (“Plaintiffs”) oppose the Motion. (ECF No. 23.) Having reviewed the parties’
submissions filed in connection with the Motion and having declined to hold oral argument
pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 78(b), for the reasons set forth below and for good
cause having been shown, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1) is
GRANTED and the claims against them are DISMISSED.
I.
BACKGROUND
Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint is disorganized, unintelligible, and replete with bald
assertions that are implausible. In fact, the Amended Complaint alleges claims against Defendants
not a part of this suit, such as a defendant “WFB”, (see ECF No. 19 at Counts One (RICO
Violations), Three (FDCPA), Eleven (Civil Conspiracy), Twelve (Unlawful Conversion), and
Fifteen (Violation of TILA and RESPA)), and references claims brought by a plaintiff “Drake,”
also not a party to this matter (see id. Counts Two (violation of the NJCFA), Twelve (Unlawful
Conversion), Fourteen (Defamation), and Fifteen (violation of TILA and RESPA).) Because the
Amended Complaint is incoherent, and Plaintiffs’ opposition to the Motion to Dismiss is no better,
the Court draws majority of the facts from Plaintiffs’ exhibits attached to its original Complaint
and Defendants attachments that are “integral to or explicitly relied upon in the complaint.” In re
Burlington Coat Factory Sec. Litig., 114 F.3d 1410, 1426 (3d Cir. 1997).
A. The Loan
On May 2, 2005, Plaintiffs obtained a $1,627,500 loan (the “Loan”) from American Home
Acceptance Inc. (“American Home”) for the purchase of 127 Hope Road, Blairstown, New Jersey.
(Ex. B to ECF No. 1-2 at 12 and ECF No. 19 ¶¶ 6-7.) The Loan is evidenced by a Note and secured
by a Mortgage executed in favor of Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., as nominee
for American Home. (Id. and ECF No. 20-5 at 45 ¶ 2.) On May 17, 2005, the Mortgage was
recorded in Warren County. (ECF No. ECF No. 1-5.) Pursuant to the Note, Plaintiffs were to make
monthly installments of $5,616.83 until May 1, 2035. (ECF No. 1-2 at 45.) On July 26, 2012,
American Home assigned the Mortgage to Deutsche. (ECF No. 19 ¶ 6 and ECF No. 20-5 at 33.)
The assignment was recorded in Warren County on August 10, 2010. (Ex. I to ECF No. 20-5 at
107.)
B. The Foreclosure Action
On February 1, 2012, Plaintiffs failed to make their monthly payment, thereby defaulting
on the Loan. (Exs. D and E to ECF No. 20-5 ¶ 6.) Therefore, Deutsche filed a foreclosure complaint
against Plaintiffs on February 7, 2013, in the Superior Court of New Jersey (the “Superior Court”),
Chancery Division, Warren County (the “Foreclosure Action”). (Ex. D to ECF No. 20-5.) On
2
March 18, 2013, Plaintiffs filed an Answer. (Ex. E to ECF No. 20-5.) On September 24, 2014, the
parties entered a Consent Order whereby Plaintiffs voluntarily withdrew their Answer, affirmative
defenses, and any counterclaims to apply for the foreclosure mediation program. (Ex. F. to ECF
No. 20-5.) The case did not resolve in mediation, therefore, on December 9, 2015, Deutsche moved
for final judgment. (Ex. G to ECF No. 20-5.) On September 24, 2014, after obtaining new counsel,
Plaintiffs moved to vacate the Consent Order. (Ex. H to ECF No. 20-5.) Deutsche withdrew their
application for final judgment on March 4, 2016. (Ex. I to ECF No. 20-5.)
On February 5, 2016, the Superior Court entered default judgment in favor of Deutsche.
(Ex. G to ECF No. 20-5.) On May 26, 2016, the Superior Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion to vacate
the Consent Order. (Id.) Therefore, Deutsche moved for a final judgment of foreclosure, which
was granted on September 23, 2016. (Ex. I to ECF No. 20-5.) Plaintiffs did not oppose the entry
of final judgment. (Id.)
On October 12, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a second motion to vacate the Superior Court’s: (1)
September 24, 2014 Consent Order; (2) May 26, 2016 Order; and September 23, 2016 Final
Judgment. (Ex. J to ECF No. 20-5.) The Superior Court denied that motion on January 12, 2017.
(Id.) On May 1, 2017, Plaintiffs filed a third motion to vacate the above, which the Superior Court
again denied on July 5, 2017. (Ex. K to ECF No. 20-5.)
On September 28, 2017, Plaintiffs filed a letter notice objecting to the venue of the
Foreclosure Action, which the Superior Court denied on September 29, 2017, stating:
In response to your letter of September 28, 2017, venue of your case
was not changed to Somerset County. I am the judge who hears
foreclosure matters for all counties in this Vicinage meaning
Warren, Somerset and Hunterdon Counties, and while I sit in
Somerset County, that does not mean that venue for the case has
changed. Your Order is not void. Be advised accordingly.
3
(Ex. L to ECF No. 20-5.)
C. This Action
On February 22, 2018, Plaintiffs filed this action. (ECF No. 1.) On February 26, 2018,
Plaintiffs sought to stay the sheriff’s sale in Superior Court, which was denied on that same date.
(Ex. M to ECF No. 20-5.) Deutsche purchased the property at the sheriff sale for $100. (Ex. N to
ECF No. 20-5.) Plaintiffs, however, refused to vacate the property. (Ex. O to ECF No. 20-5.)
Therefore, Deutsche filed a motion to evict them in Superior Court. (Id.) In response, on October
17, 2018, Plaintiffs filed an emergency motion to stay eviction based on the pendency of this
matter. (Id.) Whether Plaintiffs have been evicted is unknown.
On August 10, 2018, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss before this Court. (ECF No.
6.) In response, Plaintiffs requested permission to file an Amended Complaint. (ECF No. 9.) The
Court granted Plaintiffs’ request to file an amended complaint on October 18, 2018. (ECF No. 10.)
On December 14, 2018, Plaintiffs filed their Amended Complaint alleging: (1) RICO violations;
(2) violations of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act (“NJCFA”); (3) violations of the Federal
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”); (4) unjust enrichment; (5) negligent
misrepresentation; (6) unclean hands; (7) fraudulent concealment; (8) constructive fraud; (9) civil
aiding and abetting fraud; (10) willful and wanton gross negligence; (11) civil conspiracy to
defraud; (12) unlawful conversion; (13) breach of contract; (14) defamation; (15) violations of
Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”) and RESPA; and (16) quiet title. (ECF No. 19.) In essence,
Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint is yet another attempt at relitigating and nullifying the Foreclosure
Action and an attempt to stay in their home. For example, Plaintiffs allege the following:
•
“The loan disclosure documents given contain fraud due to failure
to consummate the agreements, lack of full disclosure, notary
misconduct, and having unclear concealed information and
4
misrepresentations that hid relevant and material facts about the
terms and conditions of the loan transaction.” (ECF No. 19 ¶ 9.)
•
“The Defendants did not disclose to the said borrower the disparate
conditions by which the funding of the allege-loan is done when
comparing it with the conditions of a loan according to the
understanding of the least or unsophisticated consumer standard or
a reasonable consumer standard.” (Id. ¶ 10.)
•
“The disclosure violations and attempt at fraud by the Defendants(s)
create and give Plaintiff the right to claims for the mortgage and note
subject to this transaction being null and void.” (Id. ¶ 12.)
•
“The Plaintiff is without consenting to the contract creating the
allege-debt due to being without full disclosure of the relevant terms
and conditions of the funding of the loan.” (Id. ¶ 13.)
•
“Here Plaintiff in a foreclosure process and sale date and judicial
proceeding in which Defendant(s) obtains Orders in its favor, but
which orders and judgments are void for fraud on the court
committed an improper sheriff sale to the detriment of Plaintiff.”
(Id. ¶ 36.)
•
“In previous actions, which orders and judgments are void for
wrongdoings, the Defendant(s) was without and continue to be
without showing proper evidence on record that Defendant, has
proper standing to sue and foreclose, but initialed a foreclosure
process froth with defects and errors, yet still intend to sell
Plaintiff’s home, and if allowed foreclose and evict Plaintiff from
his home creating the need to overturn/stay the said foreclosure
process and. or any sale and stay/prevent any alleged Foreclosure
Auction/Sale.” (Id. ¶ 43.)
•
“Therefore, because of the above and below fatal issues and error
the alleged foreclosing party(s) and debt collector(s) in this matter
have no legitimate rights to the property or collection of a debt, ye
the Plaintiff has legitimate possessory rights to the subject
property.” (Id. ¶ 47.)
•
“Defendants carried Plaintiffs . . . through the loan finalizing
procedures and concealed relevant information from the Plaintiff
when finalizing. This led to a loan that needs to not have actually
been done. Resulting in foreclosure of the state loans and Plaintiffs
property.” (Id. ¶ 53.)
5
On December 28, 2018, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint. (ECF No.
20.) Plaintiffs oppose the Motion. (ECF No. 23.)
II.
LEGAL STANDARDS
A. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1)
When a defendant moves to dismiss a claim for lack of subject matter jurisdiction under
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1), the court must determine whether defendant is making
a “facial or factual challenge to the court’s subject matter jurisdiction.” Gould Elecs., Inc. v. United
States, 220 F.3d 169, 176 (3d Cir. 2000); Mortensen v. First Fed. Sav. & Loan Ass’n, 549 F.2d
884, 891 (3d Cir. 1977). Under a facial attack, the movant challenges the legal sufficiency of the
claim, and the court considers only “the allegations of the complaint and documents referenced
therein and attached thereto in the light most favorable to the plaintiff.” Gould Elecs., 220 F.3d at
176; Mortensen, 549 F.2d at 891 (“The facial attack does offer similar safeguards to the plaintiff
[as a 12(b)(6) motion]: the court must consider the allegations of the complaint as true.”). The
Court “may dismiss the complaint only if it appears to a certainty that the plaintiff will not be able
to assert a colorable claim of subject matter jurisdiction.” D.G. v. Somerset Hills Sch. Dist., 559 F.
Supp. 2d 484, 491 (D.N.J. 2008) (citing Cardio–Medical Assoc., Ltd. v. Crozer–Chester Med. Ctr.,
721 F.2d 68, 75 (3d Cir. 1983)).
Under a factual attack, however, the challenge is to the trial court’s “very power to hear
the case.” Mortensen, 549 F.2d at 891. Thus:
[T]here is substantial authority that the trial court is free to weigh
the evidence and satisfy itself as to the existence of its power to hear
the case. In short, no presumptive truthfulness attaches to plaintiff's
allegations, and the existence of disputed material facts will not
preclude the trial court from evaluating for itself the merits of
jurisdictional claims.
6
Id. Moreover, in a factual attack, “the court may consider and weigh evidence outside the pleadings
to determine if it has jurisdiction.” Gould Elecs., 220 F.3d at 178.
Regardless of the analysis, the plaintiff bears the burden of demonstrating the existence of
subject matter jurisdiction. See McCann v. Newman Irrevocable Tr., 458 F.3d 281, 286 (3d Cir.
2006); Lightfoot v. United States, 564 F.3d 625, 627 (3d Cir. 2009) (citing Carpet Grp. Int’l v.
Oriental Rug Importers Ass’n, 227 F.3d 62, 69 (3d Cir. 2000)).
Here, Defendants are asserting a facial 12(b)(1) challenge because they assert Plaintiffs’
claims are barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. (ECF No. 9-1.) The Court, therefore, accepts
the allegations in the Complaint as true.
B. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6)
In deciding a motion to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), a
district court is “required to accept as true all factual allegations in the complaint and draw all
inferences in the facts alleged in the light most favorable to the [plaintiff].” Phillips v. Cty. of
Allegheny, 515 F.3d 224, 228 (3d Cir. 2008). “[A] complaint attacked by a . . . motion to dismiss
does not need detailed factual allegations.” Bell Atl. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555 (2007).
However, the plaintiff’s “obligation to provide the ‘grounds’ of his ‘entitle[ment] to relief’ requires
more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action
will not do.” Id. (citing Papasan v. Allain, 478 U.S. 265, 286 (1986)). A court is “not bound to
accept as true a legal conclusion couched as a factual allegation.” Papasan, 478 U.S. at 286.
Instead, assuming the factual allegations in the complaint are true, those “[f]actual allegations must
be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative level.” Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555.
7
“To survive a motion to dismiss, a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter,
accepted as true, to ‘state a claim for relief that is plausible on its face.’” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556
U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 570). “A claim has facial plausibility when
the pleaded factual content allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is
liable for misconduct alleged.” Id. This “plausibility standard” requires the complaint allege “more
than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully,” but it “is not akin to a ‘probability
requirement.’” Id. (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556). “Detailed factual allegations” are not
required, but “more than an unadorned, the defendant-harmed-me accusation” must be pled; it
must include “factual enhancements” and not just conclusory statements or a recitation of the
elements of a cause of action. Id. (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555, 557).
“Determining whether a complaint states a plausible claim for relief [is] . . . a contextspecific task that requires the reviewing court to draw on its judicial experience and common
sense.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 679. “[W]here the well-pleaded facts do not permit the court to infer
more than the mere possibility of misconduct, the complaint has alleged—but it has not
‘show[n]’—‘that the pleader is entitled to relief.’” Id. at 679 (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2)).
While as a general rule, a court many not consider anything beyond the four corners of the
complaint on a motion to dismiss pursuant to 12(b)(6), the Third Circuit has held “a court may
consider certain narrowly defined types of material without converting the motion to dismiss [to
one for summary judgment pursuant under Rule 56].” In re Rockefeller Ctr. Props. Sec. Litig., 184
F.3d at 287. Specifically, courts may consider any “document integral to or explicitly relied upon
in the complaint.” In re Burlington Coat Factory Sec. Litig., 114 F.3d at 1426.

III.
DECISION
Defendants argue Plaintiffs’ claims are an effort to challenge the Superior Court’s decision
in the Foreclosure Action. (See ECF No. 20-3 at 11-13.) Plaintiffs contend “[a]lthough the facts of
the Foreclosure case were submitted for reference, the claims do not allege injuries arising from
the state-court action itself, rather each claim was from actions taken by Defendants outside of or
subsequent to the Foreclosure actions. Accordingly, the Rooker-Felman doctrine does not bar
plaintiff’s complaint.” (ECF No. 23 at 5.)
Pursuant to Rooker-Feldman, federal district courts lack subject matter jurisdiction to
review and reverse state court judgments. In re Knapper, 407 F.3d 573, 580 (3rd Cir. 2005).
Rooker–Feldman serves to bar a claim when: (1) the federal claim was actually litigated in state
court before the plaintiff filed the federal action or, (2) “if the federal claim is inextricably
intertwined with the state adjudication, meaning that federal relief can only be predicated upon a
conviction that the state court was wrong.” Id. The Third Circuit has held a federal claim is
“inextricably intertwined” with an issue adjudicated by a state court when: “(1) the federal court
must determine . . . the state court judgment was erroneously entered in order to grant the requested
relief, or (2) the federal court must take an action that would negate the state court’s judgment.”
In re Madera, 586 F.3d 228, 232 (3d Cir. 2009) (quoting Walker v. Horn, 385 F.3d 321, 330 (3d
Cir. 2004)). Significantly,
[f]our requirements must be met for the [Rooker-Feldman] doctrine
to apply: (1) the plaintiff lost in state court; (2) the plaintiff
complains of injury caused by the state court judgment; (3) the state
court judgment was rendered before the federal suit was filed; and
(4) the plaintiff invites the district court to review and reject the state
court judgment.
9
Gage v. Wells Fargo Bank, NA AS, 521 F. App’x 49, 50–51 (3d Cir. 2013) (citing Great Western
Mining & Mineral Co. v. Fox Rothschild LLP, 615 F.3d 159, 166 (3d Cir. 2010)). Where, on the
other hand, the federal plaintiff presents “some independent claim, albeit one that denies a legal
conclusion that a state court has reached,” the doctrine does not apply. Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi
Basic Indus. Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 292 (2005), quoted in Turner v. Crawford Square Apartments
III, L.P., 449 F.3d 542, 547–48 (3d Cir. 2006). In such an instance, jurisdiction is confirmed and
the court should then consider “whether the defendant prevails under principles of preclusion.”
Exxon Mobil, 544 U.S. at 292.
The Rooker-Feldman doctrine “is a narrow doctrine that applies only in limited
circumstances.” Shibles v. Bank of Am., N.A., No. 17-2386, 2018 WL 1448670, at *2 (3d Cir. Mar.
23, 2018) (citations omitted); In re Philadelphia Entm’t & Dev. Partners, 879 F.3d 492, 499 (3d
Cir. 2018) (“[F]ederal courts had been applying the Rooker-Feldman doctrine too broadly and
consequently it clarified that the doctrine is confined to ‘limited circumstances’ where ‘state-court
losers complain[] of injuries caused by state-court judgments rendered before the district court
proceedings commend and invit[e] district court review and rejection of those judgments.”)
(citation omitted). The four requirements “must be met for the doctrine to apply.” Gage, 521 F.
App’x at 50–51.
This Court finds all factors of the doctrine are satisfied, as final judgment was entered in
the Foreclosure Action against Plaintiffs on September 23, 2016, prior to the initiation of this
action in federal court. (Ex. I to ECF No. 20-5.) Evidenced by the bullet points above, and contrary
to Plaintiffs’ argument, Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint is replete with allegations of injuries that
caused the events leading up to, during, and including the Foreclosure Action and invites the Court
to review, reject, and void the Foreclosure Action. In fact, Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint openly
10
states, “[t]he disclosure violations and attempt at fraud by the Defendants(s) create and give
Plaintiff the right to claims for the mortgage and note subject to this transaction being null and
void.” (ECF No. 19 ¶ 12.)
This Court is prohibited by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine from providing relief that would
reverse the decisions, directly or indirectly invalidate the determinations, prevent the enforcement
of the orders, or void the rulings, orders, or judgments issued by the Superior Court in the
Foreclosure Action. See Jacobsen v. Citi Mortg. Inc., 715 F. App’x 222, 223 (3d Cir. 2018)
(upholding dismissal of the claims brought in connection with a state foreclosure action as being
barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine), pet. for reh’s & reh’g en banc denied, No. 17-3267 (3d
Cir. Apr. 30, 2018). This is true even if Plaintiffs have asserted federal claims in the Federal Action.
See Todd v. U.S. Bank Nat’l Ass’n, 685 F. App’x 103, 105-06 (3d Cir. 2017) (upholding dismissal
of the claims that were brought in connection with a state foreclosure action pursuant to the
Rooker-Feldman doctrine, even though the plaintiff therein asserted claims under the FDCPA),
pet. for reh’g & reh’g en banc denied, Nos. 16-1126 & 16-1255 (3d Cir. May 18, 2017), cert.
denied, 138 S. Ct. 449 (2017).
In their opposition, Plaintiffs rely on Puche v. Wells Fargo NA, 256 F. Supp. 3d 540, 546
(D.N.J. 2017), appeal dismissed sub nom., No. 17-2595, 2017 WL 7036523 (3d Cir. Nov. 30,
2017), for the proposition that the Rooker-Feldman doctrine is inapplicable to RESPA and
contractual duty of good faith and fair dealing claims because those claims are do not attack the
validity of the Foreclosure Action. (ECF No. 23 at 5.) Here, the Amended Complaint does not
assert a claim for breach of good faith and fair dealing. (See ECF No. 19.) As such, no claim exists
to be barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine.
11
Second, while Plaintiffs seek an award of monetary damages and contend they are not
attacking the validity of the Foreclosure Action in their RESPA claim, this contention does not
preclude the application of the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Plaintiffs’ RESPA claim, much like all
their other claims, is an implicit and indirect attack on the Foreclosure Action, and therefore the
Rooker-Feldman doctrine is applicable regardless of the relief or claim allegedly asserted. See
Duffy v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., No. 16-4453, 2017 WL 2364196, at *5 (D.N.J. May 31, 2017);
Andrew v. Ivanhoe Fin., Inc., No. 07-729, 2008 WL 2265287, at *7 (E.D. Pa. May 30, 2008); see
also Byrd v. Homecomings Fin. Network, 407 F. Supp. 2d. 937, 943-44 (N.D. Ill. 2005) (holding
the Rooker-Feldman doctrine barred mortgagor’s RESPA and TILA claims, which sought to
collaterally attack the state court’s mortgage foreclosure judgment). Irrespective of how the
Plaintiffs label their claims or how they attempt to disguise their opposition or Amended
Complaint, their Amended Complaint is clearly the prototypical Rooker-Feldman situation—a
case brought by a state-court loser complaining of injuries caused by the Foreclosure Action
rendered before this Court proceedings commenced and asking the district court to review, reject,
and nullify those judgments. Therefore, Plaintiffs’ claims are barred by the Rooker-Feldman
doctrine.
The Court also holds that, to the extent the RESPA claim is not barred by the RookerFeldman doctrine, it fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted pursuant to 12(b)(6),
since it is brought by the unknown plaintiff “Drake” and against the unknown defendant “WFB.” 1
1
Notably, Counts One (RICO Violations), Two (violation of the NJCFA), Three (FDCPA), Eleven
(Civil Conspiracy), Twelve (Unlawful Conversion), Fourteen (Defamation), and Fifteen
(Violation of TILA and RESPA) also fail to state a claim because they were either brought by a
plaintiff or against a defendant not a party to this matter.
12
The Court finds Rooker-Feldman bars Plaintiffs’ claims, and the Court lacks subject matter
jurisdiction over the claims. Accordingly, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss pursuant to Rule
12(b)(1) is GRANTED. Because the Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over
Plaintiffs’ claims, it cannot reach the merits of their claims. Larsen v. Senate of the Commw., 152
F.3d 240, 245 (3d Cir. 1998) (“A court that is without proper jurisdiction cannot proceed at all,
and must merely note the jurisdictional defect and dismiss the suit.”)
IV. CONCLUSION
For the reasons set forth above, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1)
is GRANTED and the claims against them are DISMISSED.
