The Garrets' struggle is the fourth time Occupy Detroit has caused a bank to reverse a decision to take home or business.

Here's a story on 1515 Broadway cafe:

Mike Shane THE EVICTION OF BERTHA AND WILLIAM GARRETT HAS BEEN STOPPED!

The Garretts have been victorious in their struggle to keep their home. The bank agreed to let the Garretts purchase their home for the previously agreed upon price of $12,000. The contract has yet to be signed. We must maintain our vigilance.

Supporters are encouraged to be at the home of the Garretts by 7 am to prevent the confront any appearance of a dumpster. Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company has gone back on it's word in the past. But a realtor at O'Conner Real Estate Development, the firm that apparently wanted so badly to list the property as soon as possible, also assured us that the eviction has been called off.

       Breanna Spiteri-Nazaruk omg! all of you able to take should be so proud! thank you for doing what the rest of michigan and the country were unable to do!

       Jean Wilson It seems that Banks don't like to be embarrassed so the people do have the power after all! You are doing amazing work!

       Tony Lagace They are looking for help to watch house 6am shift needs replacement bank has said they will deal but until it is signed we need to stay. Vigilant
