   Community activists alerted local media to reports that the 103 year old elderly lady, Vinia Hall, had lost a long legal battle with the bank and now faces foreclosure and eviction. The eviction process would have left the 103 year old woman on the streets along with her 83 year old daughter.

     “We will work out a resolution to keep them in the home,” Thomas Kelly, a spokesman for the bank, said in an emailed statement.
     "That's a blessing. God says he don't fawn over what you can't take... I never believe I was gone," Hall said to the local media.

     Tuesday, Fulton County Sherrif's Department (contact link) was called to Mrs. Hall's residence to server an eviction notice posted by Deutsche Bank (contact link) which is owned by JPMorgan and Chase Co. (contact link)

     Upon arrival, the sherrif's department decided that they will not carry out the eviction notice and left. The 83 year old daughter went to the hospital for stress induced illness, but Vinia Hall stayed in her location. Upon further outcry and numerous local complaints, the bank has decided to recant the eviction notice and review the case further.

     "When I am gone, ya'll can come out here and do anything you wanna do" said Mrs. Hall to inteviewers.

     I encourage anyone reading this to contact the Fulton County Police and Sherrif's department, and let them know how you feel about their refusal to serve the eviction notice, and I encourage anyone reading this to contact Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan and Chase and let them know how you feel about the eviction notice given to an almost 104 year old woman, as well as overcharging over 4000 military families for their morgages, and improperly foreclosing on 14 of them, admittedly breaking federal law.
