1987Ind. 1985), 615 F. Supp. 890 , was another district court case involving an attempt to claim Federal jurisdiction by reason of the plaintiffs’ “Land Patent.” The district court said: “This court has considered Nixon’s land patent and found it to be a frivolous legal nullity that did not and could not affect the title to the mortgaged land at issue in the underlying foreclosure action.” 615 F.
