| Equifax Information Services LLCsource ↗ filed by Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP, Litigation · Judge Carlos Eduardo Mendoza · No. 6:26-cv-01633 · 15:1681 Fair Credit Reporting Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements –$7.40M ▾Comparable FCRA rulings split: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage and Sykes v. Experian show courts dismiss claims requiring legal analysis of disputed facts or lacking private right of action, while Askins v. CRST shows bare statutory violations can survive standing challenges. Equifax as CRA defendant faces recurring individual FCRA suits (see prior records) suggesting routine but fact-dependent litigation. Comparable settlements –$7.40M median $2.23M · n=8 Trader Joe's $7.40M · Xactus $2.40M · RentGrow $2.25M Per member (realized): ~$102 median · $102–$102 (n=1) Comparable verdict: TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Sykes v. Experian (7th Cir.) - dismissed because mortgage-status accuracy required legal analysis, a common defense CRAs raise against furnisher-liability-style claims here. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead concrete inaccuracy/legal-vs-factual dispute, as in Sykes v. Experian and Minano v. DLJ Mortgage This defendant: Six recent Equifax FCRA filings suggest a steady stream of individual disputes rather than one major systemic issue. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): –$500K Small sample size, unclear if filing is individual or class action; comparables are heterogeneous across FCRA subtheories. · grounded in 10 rulings, 8 settlements, 1 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | M.D. Fla. | 2026-07-27 | –$7.40M comparable settlements |
