Woman Sues Bank of America Over Its Foreclosure Procedures

An Austin woman filed suit Thursday against Bank of America Corp., alleging the company fraudulently sought to foreclose on her home. The suit claims that the bank wrongly invalidated a loan modification agreement because it wasn't signed by her husband even though he died in 2007, more than three years before the agreement was made. Filed in state District Court in Travis County, the lawsuit by Maria Gonzales comes on the same day a Massachusetts lawsuit accused five of the nation's largest banks — including Bank of America — of deceptive foreclosure practices.
