REPLY TO OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS

Case 2:11-cv-01462-FCD -KJN Document 26 Filed 07/29/11 Page 2 of 4
Defendant SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC. hereby responds to Plaintiff
MELANIE I. CORNELL'S ("Plaintiff') Opposition to the Motion to Dismiss as follows:
I.
ARGUMENT
A. The Deed of Trust and Assignment are Recorded in Nevada County.
Plaintiff stated that she stopped making payments under the terms of the Note and Deed of
Trust under the coy theory that because the Deed of Trust was not recorded in Nevada County;
she no longer has to make payments.'
Although the location of the recording of the Deed of Trust is irrelevant to Plaintiffs
obligations under the Deed of Trust, Defendants now concede that the Property is located in Nevada County. Additionally, both the Deed of Trust and Assignment to the current
beneficiary, U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee, on behalf of the Holders of the Asset
Backed Securities Corporation Home Equity Loan Trust, Series NC 2005-HE8, Asset Backed
Pass-Through Certificates, Series NC 2005-HE8, are duly recorded in Nevada County.2
The recording of a conveyance may be rerecorded in another county and the newly
recorded document has the same force and effect as the original recording. California Civil
Code §1213 states:
Every conveyance of real property or an estate for years therein acknowledged or
proved and certified and recorded as prescribed by law from the time it is filed with
the recorder for record is constructive notice of the contents thereof to subsequent purchasers and mortgagees; and a certified copy of such a recorded conveyance
may be recorded in any other county and when so recorded the record thereof
shall have the same force and effect as though it was of the originalconveyance and where the original conveyance has been recorded in any
county wherein the property therein mentioned is not situated a certified copy
of the recorded conveyance may be recorded in the county where suchproperty is situated with the same force and effect as if the original
conveyance had been recorded in that county. (Emphasis added.)

FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT Case No. 2:11-cv-
Case 2:11-cv-01462-FCD -KJN Document 26 Filed 07/29/11 Page 3 of 4
1
As allowed per the above statute, the Deed of Trust it is now recorded in Nevada
2 County as document number 20110015747. This renders Plaintiffs argument as moot.
3
In light of the above and for all the reasons set for in the Motion to Dismiss the
First4 Amended Complaint, Plaintiff fails to set forth a legal basis for her adverse claims to quiet title.
5 B. The Claim for Conversion Fails to Allege Any Facts to Support the Claim.
6Plaintiffs offers no facts to support her conversion claim. In fact, Plaintiff offers
7 exhibits evidencing that SPS is the loan servicer.3 Furthermore, Plaintiff purports to have
8 attempted to tender the amount owing under the loan to SPS, which is at direct odds with any
9 contention that SPS is not the loan servicer.4
10 Therefore, a claim for conversion should be dismissed without leave to amend.
11
12 CONCLUSION
13For the reasons set forth above and in the Motion to Dismiss, SPS respectfully requests
14 that its Motion to Dismiss the First Amended Complaint is granted without leave to amend.
