Thank you,\u201d Been, a retired bus driver and trolley operator, said.<\/p>\n<p>Been, who is black, served in the segregated 93rd Army Infantry Division fighting in the South Pacific during WWII.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is fantastic. I\u2019ll truly believe it when I hear it from the lawyers, but I\u2019m cautiously pretty optimistic,\u201d said Been\u2019s lawyer Belinda Luu, who works with Mobilization for Justice, a group that provides\u00a0 legal services to the needy.<\/p>\n<p>The bank\u2019s lawyers filed the foreclosure case in December 2018 after Been failed to make monthly repayments.<\/p>\n<p>Been\u2019s signature was in the loan statements provided in court documents.<\/p>\n<p>But Been said he could not recall securing a loan and had no reason to. In court papers, he insisted his signature was forged.<\/p>\n<p>Readers who heard about Been\u2019s plight emailed The Post asking if they could donate money to help pay his outstanding loan or related expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Those still wishing to do so can mail a check payable to Mobilization for Justice, Inc. with \u201cJames Been\u201d in the memo line.
