SAN DIEGO (Reuters) - San Diego City Attorney Michael Aguirre said on Wednesday he had filed a lawsuit against Bank of America Corp and its Countrywide unit to prevent the mortgage lenders from foreclosing on homes in his city, which he aims to make a "foreclosure sanctuary." Aguirre said he plans to file similar lawsuits against Washington Mutual Inc in an effort to make the lenders negotiate with mortgage borrowers facing foreclosure. "We would like to see San Diego become a foreclosure sanctuary," Aguirre said. (Reporting by Marty Graham in San Diego; Writing by Jim Christie; editing by Carol Bishopric) (c) Reuters 2008.
