OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. -- Eyewitness News found an Osceola County homeowner won her battle in court to save her home from foreclosure, but the bank wouldn't listen.

Ana Chavez used to live on Kilimanjaro Drive until the Bank of America changed her door locks in violation of a court ruling.

A judge told the bank that if Chavez does not get her keys by noon Thursday, he's is dismissing the foreclosure lawsuit and the bank will face more penalties.

In the meantime, the bank couldn't explain why it took over a house it did not own. Homeowner Ana Chavez is fighting to save her home from going into foreclosure. She is hoping to modify her loan and Chavez thought she was one step closer when a judge ruled in her favor last month.

Bank of America asked the judge to set a foreclosure sale date on her Kissimmee home, but the judge denied the request. Despite the judge's ruling, the bank decided to take over Chavez's home.

"What they did is illegal. We have a case open and they are not suppose to do that," said Chavez.

Ana Chavez had been away from her home for a couple of days. When she came home she tried to get into her house, but all the locks had been changed.

The bank hired a locksmith, changed the locks and refused to give Chavez access to her home. The bank's attorney even called the bank and said there was a mistake, but those calls were ignored too.

"I thought this was never going to happen me I was very upset. I think this is terrible," said Chavez.

Attorney Adam Sudbury says he hopes the punishment sends a message to the banks.

"These banks and these attorneys they steam roll over people like there is no tomorrow and unfortunately for them sometimes they run into a road block," said Sudbury.

Judge James Stroker wasn't happy with the bank's actions and has now ordered Bank of America to turn over the keys to her within 24 hours, pay for Chavez's attorney's fees and the bank may also have to pay for her living expenses.
