JPMorgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM) and justice department taken to court over settlement package
A case has been filed in court against the US department over its record settlement with JPMorgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM). Nathan Andrada of the Fourth estate cooperative Contributor New York claims the deal to resolve the mortgage issues that JPMorgan Chase &Co had with investments was unconstitutional.
The public interest group wants the settlement to be revoked and declared illegal until judge reviews and approves the settlement package. JPMorgan Chase &Co had come into a consensus agreement with the US government to pay $13 billion for issuing fraudulent and substandard mortgages. The case could hit hard rocks as the justice department constitutionally has the powers to solve civil matters out of court as long as full settlement is made available to the public domain.
