Plaintiff filed its Petition for Foreclosure (“the Complaint”) on August 18,
2025 (Dkt. 1), seeking judicial foreclosure of the real property located at 5302
Moonshadows Dr., Atascocita, Texas, 77346 (the “Subject Property”).
Plaintiff joined the Secretary as a Defendant based on a Partial Claim
Deed of Trust filed and recorded as Document/Instrument Number RP-2024-
125442, in the real property records of Harris County, Texas (the “Federal
Security Deed”). 	A copy of the Federal Security Deed is attached to the
Complaint as Plaintiff’s Exhibit No. 5. Dkt. 1-1 at 27-34.
Plaintiff and the United States agree that the United States is the proper
Defendant pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2410. To expedite the proceedings, Plaintiff
and the United States consent to the substitution of the United States as a
Defendant in place of the Secretary.
The United States does not oppose the Court entering judgment in favor
of Plaintiff and ordering the Subject Property sold at a public sale. 	Plaintiff
and the United States agree that this Consent Order does not affect the United
States’ ability to pursue collection on the Federal Security Deed as provided by
law and it shall remain enforceable against any excess funds arising from any
foreclosure sale of the Subject Property pursuant to the Complaint after
Plaintiff has been paid all amounts due and owing to it on the underlying
loan(s) to Chaunte Satcher and James Satcher.
