Illinois Appraiser Agrees to Revocation of License
Wiese Enters Into Consent Order with Department
Dennis M. Wiese Jr., Belleville, Illinois, entered into a consent order with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation whereby he agreed to a 10 year revocation of his real estate appraiser license. The Department of Financial and Professional Regulation had filed a complaint against Wiese alleging 10 allegedly inaccurate appraisals, performed in 2001 and 2002. The complaint included allegations that Wiese failed to document disrepair in some of the homes which were located in Decatur and Belleville, Illinois. According to the consent order, Wiese had a four-year business relationship with Gary Knox, 59, Decatur, Illinois. During that time, it was alleged that Knox would order appraisals from Wiese, providing him with information about the condition of the properties and information about the sales of what he said were comparable properties. In a separate complaint, the Department of Financial and Profession Regulation has alleged that Knox acted as a real estate agent without a license. Knox served prison time in the mid-1990s for federal mail and bank fraud. As part of the consent order, Wiese will cooperate in the investigation of the complaint against Knox. Knox is scheduled for a civil hearing on the complaint on May 17, 2005 before an administrative law judge to determine whether disciplinary action (a fine) is warranted

F. Jeffrey Miller Update - October 20, 2009
A hearing was held in Topeka, Kansas in front of Judge Julie Robinson. Miller is currently being held pending his sentencing which is set for December 22nd, 2009 at 9:00 a.m.. Steve Vanatta and Hallie Irvin, Miller's codefendants, will be sentenced at that time also.
Several motions were heard this week. One was a motion for Miller to be released pending his sentencing. Miller's attorney, Jeff Morris, argued that the court had dismmissed with predjudice the matter involving Miller's purchase of a commercial lawnmower, violating the court ordered monitoring agreement. He also argued that Miller was not a flight risk and should be released. This motion was denied.
Another motion heard by Judge Robinson was that of an escrow account containing proceeds from the sale of Miller's forfeited assets. This account has a balance of $143,000. Attorney Morris argued that his firm was due $100,000 for work done in the Miller matter, to date. The government argued that his 'un-itemized fees' were 'exhorbitant'. The balance of the funds, Morris argued, should be released to the Miller family to help pay for mounting household expenses.
The government argued that the 'Asset Forfeiture Provision' applies down to 'the last penny' and that 'the rights of the victims to made whole are of paramount immportance' and that no routine household expenses like Visa bills, are allowed.
Attorney Morris argues that there is more than enough assets to satisfy the jury's judgement of $2.65 million dollars. The government argues that the estimated value of his assets are only $1.4 million.
The government also stated that Miller has been paid dividends from a company Miller has an ownership interest in; Boreflex. From July, 2008 to present, Miller has been paid $330,509.30 from Boreflex, unbeknownst to the court appointed monitor.
Present in the courtroom was Todd Earnshaw. Earnshaw was indicted along with Miller and others in what is commonly referred to as 'Miller I'. That trial is scheduled to begin on January 11, 2010 in Topeka, Kansas.
