What a mess. After navigating through all this legal stuff, you might want to try sitting for the bar.........and, for sure, at the bar.
Is there anything buried in your paperwork from the mortgage that originated with Staten Island Bank that said they were required to notify you if your mortgage was being sold? If that wording is in there, maybe you can get help from that end. -- Kind of a reverse engineering approach. If they were in violation of such wording, they might have a more active interest in following up by doing what they were supposed to do in the first place, file the mortgage release. Retro though it may be, I would think it would enter into and help with that paper trail you need.
I have heard that the failure to file mortgage releases is often a problem that shows up when titles are searched.
