Cypress woman sued in loan, foreclosure dispute

An Alief woman is suing a Cypress resident over a home foreclosure.

Madeline Goshay filed suit in Harris County District Court on Nov. 24 against Keith Mullins, who operates a business at Wickchester Lane, Suite 200, in Memorial; Mary Redmon of Cypress and Brian Arnold of Waller.

According to the suit, Redmon owned a house sold to Goshay in May 2005. At closing, the plaintiff signed paperwork stating that she owed Redmon for a $3,000 loan. Goshay says she had no knowledge of the loan. When no payments were made on the loan, Goshay states, Redmon used the unpaid loan as reason to foreclose on the home. The house then was resold to Redmon at foreclosure in October 2009.

Goshay wants to be declared the owner of the home and is seeking actual, statutory and exemplary damages. She also is seeking damages for full compensation for payments and improvements to the house after the foreclosure, attorney's fees, court costs and all other entitled damages.

Goshay is being represented by Houston attorneys Elizabeth Lockett and Richard Tomlinson.
