Count Six, for violations of the TILA mortgage originator rules, fails for all of the same reasons as described above in Section I.A. TILA mortgage originator rules are not applicable because those rules only apply to “residential mortgage loans” that are “consumer credit transactions,” and PACE transactions are neither. 15 U.S.C. §§ 1602 (cc)(2), (5). Beyond that, Count Six also must be dismissed because it is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the cited statutory provision.

This allegation seeks to create liability based on the last sentence of the same “creditor” definition, which provides: Any person who originates 2 or more mortgages referred to in subsection (aa) [HOEPA] of this section in any 12-month period or any person who originates 1 or more such mortgages through a mortgage broker shall be considered to be a creditor . . .. 15 U.S.C. § 1602(g). Loya apparently believes that this final sentence creates an alternative, standalone definition of “creditor,” separate from the two-part test specified in the beginning of § 1602(g), which by its terms sets out the “only” standard for “creditor.”

In the end, many of the ambiguities that afflicted the federal surcharge law were never resolved.
