The statute of limitations may have expired on new claims for repurchase or fraud based on alleged loan defects in pre-financial crisis subprime RMBS deals, but a settlement or litigation award paid out by a defendant may mark the beginning of a new six-year limitations period for the defendant to seek reimbursement or contribution from other deal parties. However, there are procedural, substantive, and practical challenges to maintaining these claims that may limit their effectiveness.

Insolvency, Creditors’ Rights & Financial Products Alert >> Claims Against Navient Echo Problems with Subprime Mortgage Loan Servicers - Alert - 02/23/2017
The allegations in the recent CFPB action against Navient are reminiscent of the abusive tactics that the CFPB alleged subprime mortgage servicers employed against struggling borrowers, which ultimately led to record-setting settlements. Unlike mortgage loan servicers that have had an opportunity or were required to adjust their policies and procedures in response to the subprime mortgage era litigation, student loan servicers are just now entering the crosshairs. If, under the Trump Administration, the federal government is viewed as soft on enforcing consumer protections, there is the potential for substantial private litigation. As student loan servicers have not been challenged to date, such litigation may seek to reveal vulnerabilities in their procedures that may be said to have contributed to the mounting student debt crisis. Based on the extensive battery of actions that ensnarled the mortgage industry for years, it appears the student loan servicing industry may be on the verge of following a similar course.
Insolvency, Creditors’ Rights & Financial Products Alert >> Recent Actions Against Navient May Expose Problems Contributing to the Student Loan Debt Crisis - Alert - 01/26/2017
It is uncertain how the Trump administration will deal with the student loan problem. On the one hand, his negative views of the current head of the CFPB and even regulation generally are well documented. But on the other hand, he has proposed more borrower-favorable income-based repayment plans that would allow for earlier extinguishment of debt versus current plans. Further, Trump’s inauguration speech struck a decidedly populist tone that would suggest support for the student loan borrower. Ultimately, even if the CFPB under Trump does not have an interest in pursuing the lawsuit, we may see state attorneys general pick up the charge in actively pursuing claims against student loan servicers.
