1. File chapter 11
2. Stop interest payment to its creditor
3. Liquidate the mortgage asset, and sell it at deep discount. Somebody
will surely buy when the price is very attractive. Heck if nobody will buy, let the poor homeowner keep the house and erase the loans. At least the homeowner gets the benefit, not the banks.

OK the fed is afraid that if the bank is sick, then it wil not lend. So why can't fed find another bank and give them capital to lend to businesses.
A lot of regional banks are healthy.
