It was stated more than 100 years ago, in Wigmore on Evidence, Third Addition, Vol. VI, section 1911, page 606, “There is then in general no rule, but only an urgent judicial reprobation, forbidding counsel or an attorney to testify in favor of his client.”

More recently the New York Lawyer’s Code of Professional Responsibility, at DR 5-102, has prohibited an attorney from acting as both advocate, and witness (except in very limited circumstances also expressed in DR 5-102).

The attorney in this case likely CAN’T authenticate these documents. Does the attorney have personal knowledge? Almost assuredly the answer is “No.” Because affidavits are to be made on personal knowledge the attorney’s attempt to authenticate the documents likely fails.

Here is a simple test question, “How do you know those documents are authentic?” If the answer is anything like “Someone told me they are” then that knowledge is merely hearsay.

Check your rules of evidence. Maybe you can have the documents deemed inadmissible due to lack of authentication.

The alleged lender that you made all the paperwork with that states you have an obligation of payment to ( promissory note ) was a STRW MAN LENDER !!!! They didn’t lend you a dime!!! There was an investment Bank involved that put forth the money they got from Investors , THE SECRET LIEN HOLDER . That constitutes FRAUD IN THE INDUCEMENT . Also , They created a securities contract instead of a Mortgage without your knowledge and permission , that’s FRAUD IN THE FACTUM and gives you the right to rescind the bogus Mortgage contract !!! It was never a mortgage !!!! there was never consummation of a Mortgage contract Cancel the Mortgage contract under the TRUTH IN LENDING ACT ( TILA) They broke Federal , State , and Contract Law !!!!
