While details remain scarce, it is expected that Warren County will enter a class-action lawsuit Monday against several banks involved with Mortgage Electronic Registration System Inc., county officials indicated Thursday.
Warren County Fiscal Court voted unanimously Thursday to grant authority for the county to engage the law firms of Spurgeon & Tinker, Gregory Stumbo, and Whiteford Taylor & Preston, to represent Warren County in a class-action lawsuit.
Last week, Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway said he subpoenaed MERS, which he believes might have circumvented Kentucky law by failing to properly record mortgage assignments or pay filing fees with county clerks throughout the state.
It's unknown at this point how much money Warren County might have lost.
