A Diamond Bar woman fighting to save her family home from foreclosure won another round in court when a judge suspended a bank's eviction effort for another 45 days.
Zeenat "Zee" Ali's seven months of court battles -- including a lawsuit she filed alleging that the family was wronged by Deutsche Bank, Downey Savings and Arvest Bank subsidiary Central Mortgage Co. -- were examined in a Times story Thursday. The banks declined to comment.
A Superior Court commissioner in Pomona previously had stayed the eviction after Ali obtained a judgment allowing her to press claims for $1.7 billion against the banks. On Thursday, Judge Michael W. Duggan extended that stay until Sept. 20.
For the first time in her battle, Ali retained a lawyer -- Kenneth Zwick of Costa Mesa -- to assist her at the latest hearing. Zwick argued in his filings that the judgment against the banks and other issues were serious enough to warrant putting the eviction -- normally a much faster proceeding than a lawsuit -- on hold.
