COMPUCREDIT CORP. ET AL. v. GREENWOOD ET AL.
CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
No. 10–948. Argued October 11, 2011—Decided January 10, 2012
Fannie Mae — not the courts — should decide what, if anything, is owed to former foreclosure attorney David J. Stern, the government-sponsored enterprise alleges in court filings.
The Law Offices of David J. Stern filed more than 25 lawsuits against servicers in recent months alleging they owe the law firm more than $34 million in unpaid invoices. On Monday, it filed its latest case, a suit against Lender Processing Services (LPS: 28.36 -0.39%), a firm that provides mortgage processing and technology services.
