A negative credit rating is not an identifiable sum of money." Smith v. Nat'l City Mortg., No. 2:10-CV-00359 JAM, 2010 WL 5477688, at *7 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 30, 2010). The Court finds Plaintiffs have failed to sufficiently allege their economic injury to satisfy the second element of a UCL claim.
Courts have also rejected the argument that the entity that initiates the foreclosure process must produce the note before undertaking foreclosure, observing that California's comprehensive provisions for non-judicial foreclosure contain no such requirement. Garfinkle v. Superior Court, 21 Cal.3d 268, 274 (1978) (non-judicial forfeiture provisions contained in Cal. Civ. Code §§ 2924 through 2924i); Phillips v. MERS, 2009 WL 3233865, at *9 (E.D. Cal. Oct. 2, 2009) (provisions cover all aspects of foreclosure process); Smith v. National City Mortgage, 2010 WL 5477688, at *5 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 30, 2010) (nonjudicial foreclosure provisions do not require possession of the promissory note to initiate foreclosure).
