I had referred to these suits in the Original Post of my ALL MERS information.

Link to Class Action Paperwork Filed in Tennessee Against MERS (remember this is actually sealed - but paperwork is here)
You will find both suits are using the same person a Barret Bates - who is a Realtor from Nevada and the source of information for being able to file these suits.
COMES the State of Tennessee ex rel. Barrett Bates, on behalf of real parties in interest, the counties of the State of Tennessee, above-named and hereby complains of Defendants as follows:
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
