First National Bank of America, a National Banking Association v. Melvin E Easiley

What's This Case About?

Let’s get one thing straight: this isn’t just another mortgage foreclosure. This is a full-blown property drama with more layers than a broken pipe under a kitchen sink — and speaking of broken pipes, that’s actually part of the plot. First National Bank wants $247,892.99, Ford Motor Credit is lurking with a judgment lien like a repossession ghost from the past, and a plumbing company filed a lien for $811… because the homeowners might have stiffed them on a repair that involved three leaks in one wall. Three. In. One. Wall. Welcome to the Easileys’ house at 8723 South Evanston Avenue, Tulsa, Oklahoma — where the only thing more unstable than the plumbing is the financial foundation of the entire household.

Meet Melvin and Lisa Easiley, a married couple who, back in 2009, decided to buy a house in the Cedarcrest II subdivision with a $250,000 loan. At the time, the note was made out to private lenders — Bill and Barbara Robertson — which already gives this whole thing a weirdly personal vibe, like borrowing money from your neighbor to fix the roof and then forgetting to pay them back for 15 years. But okay, fine, private mortgages happen. The loan came with a 6% interest rate and monthly payments of $1,500, and it was secured by the house itself — meaning if they didn’t pay, the bank (or whoever ended up holding the note) could take the house. Fast-forward a few years, and the debt got shuffled around like a deck of cards: first assigned to Security Management Corporation, then endorsed over to First National Bank of America, which is now suing to foreclose. Why? Because as of September 1, 2025, the Easileys stopped paying. And not just one payment — all subsequent payments. The bank says they gave the couple a chance to fix it. They didn’t. So now, the full balance — $247,892.99 — is due immediately. That’s how mortgages work when you default: the whole thing accelerates. It’s not “you missed a few, pay them back.” It’s “you’re out. The whole thing is due. Bye.”

But here’s where it gets juicier. This isn’t just a bank vs. homeowners tug-of-war. Oh no. The court filing is basically a real estate bloodbath with multiple claimants lining up like vultures at a car crash. First, there’s Ford Motor Credit Company, LLC — yes, the Ford. Not because they financed the house, but because Melvin Easiley apparently also defaulted on a car loan. Back in 2019, Ford sued him and won a judgment for $24,581.19. And because judgments can attach to property, Ford now has a lien on the Easileys’ house. They’re not trying to take the car — it’s probably long gone — but they can get paid from the house sale if it goes into foreclosure. So now, Ford’s sitting in court saying, “Hey, if you sell that house, we get a cut.” And to make sure they don’t lose their spot in line, they even renewed the judgment in 2024, because in Oklahoma, you’ve got five years to keep that claim alive. So Ford’s not going anywhere.

Then — and this is the pièce de résistance — comes Air Assurance Company, a plumbing and HVAC outfit based in Broken Arrow. In July 2025, they filed a mechanic’s lien for $811. That’s right: eight hundred eleven dollars. And not because they installed a fancy tankless water heater or rewired the whole house. No. This lien stems from a single service call in May 2025 — a job that started with one leak under the kitchen sink and somehow spiraled into three leaks in the same wall. The technician’s notes read like a plumbing horror story: “repaired one leak… second leak appeared… third leak popped up… started talking about a whole-house repipe.” The customer — Lisa Easiley — signed off on the work, paid $100 in cash, and put the rest on a card. The invoice shows the payment went through. But then… the system glitched. The job stayed open in their software. The technician couldn’t clock out. And before they could clarify the payment issue, the Easileys canceled the follow-up appointment for a fourth leak. Air Assurance says they’re still owed $811. The Easileys apparently disagree — or just ghosted them. So the company did what any self-respecting contractor does: they slapped a lien on the house. Because in Oklahoma, if you do work and don’t get paid, you can legally claim a stake in the property. And now, in the eyes of the court, a plumbing bill for less than a grand is officially tangled up in a quarter-million-dollar foreclosure.

So why are we here? Legally, First National Bank is asking the court to do three things: (1) declare that their mortgage is valid and superior to everyone else’s claims, (2) order the house to be sold at auction, and (3) make sure they get paid first from the proceeds — including the full $247,892.99, plus interest, attorney fees, and costs. Ford Motor Credit and Air Assurance? They’re not defendants in the traditional sense — they’re listed because they have competing claims on the property. The bank is arguing that both liens are junior to theirs, meaning they get paid only after the bank is made whole. Ford’s lien is from 2019, Air Assurance’s from 2025 — both come after the original 2009 mortgage. So under the rules of real estate finance, the bank wins the “who gets paid first” contest. But it’s still messy. Because if the house sells for less than the mortgage, Ford and Air Assurance might get nothing. And if the house sells for more? Then it’s a payout line: bank first, then Ford, then maybe — maybe — the plumber.

Now, is $247,892.99 a lot? Depends. For a house in Tulsa, maybe not. For a house with three separate leaks in the same wall and a history of unresolved contractor disputes? That starts to feel like a fixer-upper with emotional baggage. And yet, the Easileys haven’t filed an answer. No defense. No explanation. No “we lost our jobs” or “medical bills” or “the dog ate the mortgage payment.” Just silence. Which, in court terms, is basically waving a white flag.

Our take? The most absurd part isn’t the foreclosure. It’s not even Ford chasing a car debt through a house lien. It’s that a plumbing bill — for work that might have been paid, for leaks that might have been the result of systemic pipe failure — is now a legal footnote in a quarter-million-dollar property battle. Imagine: years from now, someone buys this house at auction. They do a title search. And buried in the records, they find a lien from Air Assurance for $811, with an invoice that reads like a Twilight Zone episode: “third leak popped up… started talking about whole-house repipe… payment went through but system glitched… customer canceled.” That’s not just a debt. That’s a cautionary tale. We’re not rooting for the bank. We’re not rooting for Ford. We’re not even rooting for the plumber. We’re rooting for whoever buys this house to install PEX piping, avoid the Easileys at all costs, and maybe, just maybe, get a really good home inspector. Because in the world of civil court drama, this case proves one thing: when the pipes burst, the lawsuits follow. And sometimes, they come in threes.

Air Assurance Co 1301 SW Expressway Dr, Broken Arrow, 74012, United States (918) 258-2665 BILL TO Lisa Easley 8723 South Evanston Avenue Tulsa, OK 74137 USA INVOICE 538725 JOB ADDRESS Lisa Easley 8723 South Evanston Avenue Tulsa, OK 74137 USA Completed Date: 5/12/2025 Payment Term: COD Due Date: 5/12/2025 DESCRIPTION OF WORK Tried to call customer twice, but did not get an answer. I knocked and rang the doorbell as well and still did not get an answer. I left a voicemail with the customer stating that she will need to call back in and reschedule. Thank you. 05/10/25 arrived onsite and after diagnosing repair in wall underneath kitchen sink I found that the cold side water line to the emergency stop had a break in it. Gave estimate for repair. Customer approved. Was able to make repair with propress fittings and test. Upon testing another leak appeared but on the hotside line going to emergency stop this time. Showed customer and agreed it needed repaired. Was able to do so with propress fittings and tested by turning water on again and another third leak popped up on the same line on hot side but further down. After this I started to explain to the customer will need to re evaluate this and talk about other solutions. Things like a whole house re pipe or if we should do a partial re pipe on the wall to a certain point. Talked about this for Almost 25 minutes. Decided to have the third leak repaired and once I did everything was holding properly. Educated the customer on our stream labs products and also recommended resto pros and Michael Stanton for sheet rock repair and the water damage. Collected payment that was a little over $900.00 Customer paid $100.00 out of pocket with cash and the rest on a card. Payment went through on the work phone and showed completed. Customer signed off of the acknowledgment of completed work and I was able to close job out. Noticed upon trying to clock out of service titan later on after arriving home it wasn't letting me select the clock out button. Thought this was strange and went to my tablet to try it from there and noticed the customers ticket was still open on my tablet and also showing the original estimate. Also showed that payment was not completed still. Paused the ticket so I could explain all this to the office come Monday. After doing so the customer ended up calling back saying a fourth leak happened. Thought to myself I'll address the payment issue with them once I go back out but they ended up canceling before I could do so. Tried calling the customer but no answer. Awaiting to see if they'll call us back so we can address. <table> <tr> <th>TASK</th> <th>DESCRIPTION</th> <th>QTY</th> <th>PRICE</th> <th>TOTAL</th> </tr> <tr> <td>YSP15</td> <td>*Access through outside wal</td> <td>1.00</td> <td>$250.00</td> <td>$250.00</td> </tr> <tr> <td>TRI013</td> <td>Replace angle stop/EMERGENCY SHUTOFF compression</td> <td>2.00</td> <td>$154.88</td> <td>$309.76</td> </tr> <tr> <td>TMRATE</td> <td>Time and Material is a task item that is used for items that are not in our current price-book.
