DLJ Mortgage), yet disclosure-based FCRA claims can survive (Askins v. CRST). TransUnion has a track record including a $40M jury verdict, showing real exposure if claims survive. Comparable settlements –$7.40M median $2.23M · n=8 Trader Joe's $7.40M · Xactus $2.40M · Amazon.com Inc. an $2.25M Per member (realized): ~$301 median · $102–$500 (n=2) Comparable verdict: TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital - shows FCRA furnisher claims frequently dismissed absent specific factual pleading of inaccuracy/dispute handling. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead specific FCRA violation elements, as in Minano where 3 of 6 counts were dismissed with prejudice. This defendant: TransUnion faces repeat FCRA filings (Pinney, Ferguson) and a prior $40M jury verdict, indicating recurring litigation exposure. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $500K–$25M Small sample of rulings/settlements; actual class size and outcome highly fact-dependent on specific FCRA claim pled. · grounded in 10 rulings, 8 settlements, 1 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | D.S.C. | 2026-08-03 | –$7.40M comparable settlements |
