DLJ Mortgage Capital (mortgage furnisher FCRA case) shows courts dismiss claims lacking private right of action but allow amendment on insufficiently pled counts; Askins shows bare statutory disclosure violations can survive standing challenges. Mixed outcomes suggest partial survival is likely but full case value is uncertain. Comparable settlements $2.40M–$100M median $5.85M · n=10 Equifax $100M · Equifax Informatio $30M · Equifax $30M Per member (realized): ~$250 median · $25–$500 (n=5) Comparable verdict: TransUnion $60M · TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital, Inc. — closest factual match (mortgage-industry FCRA furnisher claims), shows selective dismissal with some claims surviving without prejudice. Main risk: Dismissal of core FCRA claims for lack of private right of action against furnishers/servicers, as in Minano (Counts II, III, V dismissed with prejudice). This defendant: NewRez faces repeat privacy/wiretap litigation (Williams, Lockhart), suggesting pattern of consumer-data related suits against this servicer. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $125K–$6.25M Small, heterogeneous comparable set; no direct NewRez FCRA/FDCPA rulings; class size and per-member figures are rough proxies pending discovery. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 2 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | E.D.
