Legal Basis for Complaint : XXXX XXXX UCC XXXX XXXX the transfer of an instrument and establishes that any transfer, whether or not it constitutes a negotiation, vests the transferee with only those rights of the transferor to enforce the instrument. If the transferor has relinquished or lost its rights to enforce the instrument, the transferee can not acquire greater rights than the transferor. 

Moreover, XXXX XXXX ( c ) specifies that a transferee can not acquire rights of a holder in due course by a transfer, directly or indirectly, from a holder in due course if the transferee engaged in fraud or illegality affecting the instrument, unless otherwise agreed. If an instrument is transferred for value and the transferee does not become a holder because of lack of indorsement by the transferor, this further invalidates the transferees rights. 

These provisions render XXXX XXXX claims of standing or enforcement rights legally void. XXXX XXXX actions to report this information violate both federal consumer protection laws and the principles of XXXX XXXX.

This transfer included the sale and assignment of rights to enforce the instrument.

Ally Financial Can not Acquire Rights of a Holder in Due Course : Pursuant to XXXX XXXX ( c ), XXXX XXXX can not claim rights as a holder in due course because of its involvement in improper handling, transfer, or failure to indorse the instrument. Additionally, fraud or illegality in the securitization process affecting the instrument renders XXXX claims invalid. 
Failure to Perfect a Security Interest : As per UCC 9-203, XXXX XXXX failed to perfect a security interest in the collateral associated with the accounts, nor did it retain standing to assert rights over the instrument. Without a perfected XXXX, XXXX XXXX can not claim ownership or enforcement rights. 
Reporting to Consumer Reporting Agencies Is Unauthorized : By transferring the note and losing its rights under XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX no longer has any legal or equitable standing to furnish information regarding these accounts to consumer reporting agencies. Reporting these accounts constitutes false and misleading information, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and XXXX XXXX.
