Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Financial/Mortgage

My friend has an account with a bank

in FL. ... he has two mortgages with

this bank. The bank held a meeting

(without my friend present and

without his knowledge) and decided

to debit his account the money that

he owed and then ''put a hold'' on

the remaining funds in his account.

Is this legal? I don't see how

It sounds to me like we are missing some important details.
