We’re told the auction was announced due to alleged unpaid debts by Justice’s companies.
“the Notice of Trustee’s Sale was facially defective, in that it failed to identify all three parties” ... “and was granted without the necessary authority. Those involved in the transaction, including JPMorgan Chase -- one of the most sophisticated banks in the world -- did not obtain the consent of GHC’s board of directors or owners, which was needed to authorize the Deed of Trust to secure a loan to then GHC president James C. Justice III.” according to the motion filed Monday.
