Comparable settlements $2.45M–$100M ▾
Equifax is a CRA, so reinvestigation (§1681i) and reasonable-procedures (§1681e(b)) claims carry a private right of action, unlike the furnisher theories dismissed in Minano v. DLJ. Askins v. CRST shows bare statutory FCRA violations can survive on standing, but pleading specificity remains a recurring dismissal risk.
Comparable settlements $2.45M–$100M median $7.86M · n=10
Equifax $100M · Equifax $30M · Equifax Informatio $30M
Per member (realized): ~$176 median · $25–$250 (n=4)
Comparable verdict: TransUnion $60M · TransUnion, LLC $40M
Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital — illustrates courts readily dismiss FCRA counts lacking private right of action or factual specificity, a risk Equifax will likely raise.
Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead specific inaccurate reporting or willfulness, as in Minano's partial dismissal of FCRA counts
This defendant: Equifax has multiple recent individual FCRA filings (Harris x2, Ali, Porter, McClary) and a prior $2.2M class settlement (Bradberry), showing recurring but typically modest-value suits.
Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): –$15K
Small, mixed sample; case appears to be an individual FCRA suit, so large class settlement comparables (Equifax $100M, $30M) are not directly applicable. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 2 verdicts
