refimprove date December 2011 Tone date June 2010 On August 28, 2009, the Kansas Supreme Court issued a ruling regarding the standing, rights and interests of Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems MERS in Landmark Nat l Bank v. Kesler, 2009 Kan. LEXIS 834 Aug 28, 2009 . The court held that all indispensable parties must be identified and that the actual lender identified in foreclosure actions to protect each party s rights. The decision also addressed the role MERS plays in clouding the ownership of the promissory note and title to the property. In Landmark Nat l Bank v. Kesler, MERS, the appellant sought to invoke due process rights which it said were violated when MERS failed to get notice of the fact that their interest was being wiped out via a prior foreclosure it did not receive notice of. The Court said simply that MERS or any nominee didn t have any interest and proves its point by reference to simple statements in the documents and the simplest of laws and interpretation of the role of MERS and the requirements of recordation. The splitting or bifurcation of the promissory note or mortgage note and Mortgage law mortgage or deed of trust creates an immediate and fatal flaw in title. ref name kscourts http www.kscourts.org Cases and Opinions opinions supct 2009 20090828 98489.htm ref The Kansas Supreme Court went on to cite several other case across the nation and stated When the role of a servicing agent MERS acting on behalf of a mortgagee is thrown into the mix, it is no wonder that it is often difficult for unsophisticated borrowers to be certain of the identity of their lenders and mortgagees.

File Faisal mosque2.jpg Faisal Mosque , Islamabad is nationallandmark of Pakistan ...other uses mergefrom Designated landmarks discuss Talk Landmark Merger proposal date June 2009 Originally, a landmark literally meant a geographic feature used by exploration explorers and others to find their way back or through an area. Overview In modern usage, a landmark includes anything that is easily recognizable, such as a monument , building , or other structure . In American English it is the main term used to designate places that might be of interest to tourist s due to notable physical features or historical significance. Landmarks in the British English sense are often used for casual navigation , such as giving directions. This is done in American English as well. In urban studies as well as in geography , a landmark is furthermore defined as an external point of reference that helps orienting in a familiar or unfamiliar environment. ref Lynch, Kevin.
