Indiana Broker is Indicted on Mortgage Fraud Charges
Justin L. Stuckey, 34, Fort Wayne, Indiana, is charged in a five count Indictment with wire fraud for acts which occurred April 17, 2002, through June 21, 2002.
Stuckey owned and operated Maximum Mortgage, a mortgage brokerage company doing business in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Maximum Mortgage obtained financing for the purchase of real estate in Fort Wayne, Indiana from various mortgage lenders including ABN AMRO based in Ann Arbor, MI.
Alliance Property Management is a property management company that manages numerous rental properties in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
According to the Indictment, Stuckey caused loan applications to be submitted to ABN AMRO through its “FLY” program, (a program where little documentation is required and brokers essentially approve their own loans) based on fraudulent information and misrepresentations.
Stuckey introduced two individuals (whose names were withheld from the indictment) wanting to purchase rental properties to the owner of Alliance Property Management. The defendant told them that he was the only person that could get them the financing they needed in order to purchase the number of rental properties they wanted.
Alliance Property gave the two individuals a list of properties and told them to pick out some properties they thought that they would be interested in purchasing.
Over the course of three (3) separate closings, one of the individuals eventually purchased the following list of properties from Alliance Property:

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.
