Do these people think they are actually going to see any money from “Countrywide” ever again?
Countrywide Financial Corp., the home lender acquired by Bank of America Corp., was sued by Greenwich Financial Services Fund over claims an agreement to reduce payments on mortgages by $8.4 billion would hurt investors.
The hedge fund claims investors will be harmed by Bank of America’s settlement, reached on behalf of Countrywide, with 15 state attorneys general. The value of trusts that bought 400,000 mortgages will decline under the deal, the fund said.
In the proposed class action, or group lawsuit, the Greenwich, Connecticut-based fund demands a declaration that “Countrywide must purchase at par every mortgage loan that it sold to any of the 374 securitization trusts,” David Grais, a lawyer for the fund said today in an e-mailed statement. Grais said Countrywide could owe $80 billion to the trusts.
They ‘want’ Countrywide to purchase every mortgage loan that might affect any of the 374 securitization trusts. Good luck with that. Even if Greenwich Financial Services Fund is successful in their suit, it’s you and I that will be paying that $80 billion. The government will just add that to the bailout totals, I am sure.
