Foreclosure
By: Derek Hawkins//April 4, 2017//
Listen to this article7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: Eric Mains v. Citibank, N.A. et al
Case No.: 16-1985
Officials: WOOD, Chief Judge, and POSNER and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges
Focus: Foreclosure
Eric Mains has been battling the impending foreclosure of his home for quite some time. Most recently, he brought an action in federal court raising various state and federal law theories, related primarily to alleged fraudulent activity by the defendants. But the state courts re‐ solved these matters long before he turned to the federal court. Mindful of our limited jurisdiction and the need to respect the finality of state‐court judgments, we affirm the district court’s dismissal of this case.
