DLJ Mortgage Capital shows FCRA furnisher claims often survive only partially, with several provisions lacking private rights of action; Askins v. CRST shows disclosure-based FCRA claims can survive standing challenges. EWS's CRA-like role (Zelle/bank data) mirrors Equifax/Xactus settlement profile. 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, Inc. — illustrates that FCRA claims against data furnishers/CRAs are frequently narrowed at MTD stage, likely shaping EWS's exposure. Main risk: Dismissal of core FCRA counts for lack of private right of action or insufficient factual pleading, as in Minano This defendant: Prior filing (Eliyahu v. EWS) suggests recurring FCRA/FDCPA litigation exposure for this defendant. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $500K–$50M Small comparable sample, no EWS-specific settlement data; wide class-size uncertainty drives broad EV range. · grounded in 10 rulings, 8 settlements, 1 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | E.D.
