WOLF POPPER CHARGES GEMSTAR
COORDINATED
TITLE INSURANCE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT
A proposed settlement of $31,500,000 has been
reached in coordinated class action lawsuits against eight title insurance
companies.
The lawsuits generally allege that each
defendant title insurer, either directly or through its title agents,
overcharged homeowners for title insurance purchased for their mortgage lenders
in refinance transactions. The class consists of those who refinanced their New
York State property after mid-1996 within 10 years of purchasing the property or
within 10 years of a previous refinance without changing ownership. Each Class
Member who submits a valid Proof of Claim may be entitled to payment under the
Plan of Allocation.
