Shelby E. Watson v. Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Inc.

MARY R. RUSSELL, Chief Justice.

Shelby Watson appealed from the trial court’s judgment in favor of Wells Fargo on her Missouri Merchandising Practices Act (MMPA), section 407.0201 claim, in which she maintained Wells Fargo engaged in bad faith negotiations of a loan modification and wrongfully foreclosed on a deed of trust. The trial court held that since Wells Fargo’s actions were not done before or at the time of the extension of credit in the original loan, and Wells Fargo was not an original party to that transaction, its actions were not “in connection with” the sale of the original loan.
