Supreme Court Weighs In on NCUA’s MBS Lawsuits
The Supreme Court has instructed the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to re-examine a ruling that allowed NCUA to sue several banks over deceptive mortgage backed securities they sold to failed corporate credit unions. Under the Court of Appeals ruling, NCUA was allowed to proceed with the suits despite the fact that the suits exceeded the 3-year statute of limitations. A more recent case involving an environmental action has cast a new light on the prior ruling for NCUA. [6/17/14]
