Can anybody please give me the contact information of the attorneys currently involved in this? I don't know if anybody else has this problem, but the mortgage on our interest has not been released, even though we paid it in full within 60 days of our idiotic purchase. I demand a release several times, but the Manhattan club told me that they were barred from doing anything. They were barred from selling, they were barred from clearing title, in my opinion. I just don't want the AG to think that our interest is 100+ percent encumbered. Thank you

My MC interest was paid off within a month since the purchase. It took me seven (7) years to release the mortgage that was issued by O.Park Central LLC, after sending numerous letters and emails to the MC Board, Finance Department, Eichner, etc. That is a Mortgage scam. To my understanding, in accordance to the NYAG 2014 Order, mortgage closure was not barred. Below is the copy of the 2014 AG order in regards to the mortgage issues:

"Respondents are preliminary restrained from commencing any new foreclosure proceedings against Manhattan Club owners for delinquent common charges or for failure to comply with their obligations pursuant to any purchase money mortgage, note, assignment or allonge arranged or offered by a Respondent when the Manhattan Club owners finances their purchases of ownership interests in the Manhattan Club".

Three days ago NYAG made an announcement which is not a finalized Court document so far, and does not cover many other quires that were raised by the MC owners. I think we have to continue asking for more details, possibly, mortgage scam might be turn into another case or investigation.

I am going to send a letter in regards to the mortgage scam to Louis M. Solomon, Chief of Enforcement in the Real Estate Finance Bureau, who handled the MC investigation, and suggest other owners will do the same. His contacts:

Louis M. Solomon, Chief of Enforcement Office of the Attorney General Real Estate Finance Bureau 120 Broadway, 23rd Floor New York, NY 10271
