Question presented

Whether the First Circuit Court of Appeals was correct in denying Petitioners’ Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments rights to Substantive and Procedural Due Process before the taking of real property by upholding the District Court’s opinion ruling a fictitious, nonregistered, unlicensed name can enter into a lending transaction, ignore the Defendants’ admitted business practices of fabricating new lending documents and forging Petitioners’ signatures in order to collect on the newly fabricated note and mortgage and then foreclose on the property by not rendering an opinion and affirming the erroneous decision?
