Welcome to the Information Website for Robinson v. Nationstar.

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging Nationstar Mortgage LLC (“Nationstar” or “Defendant”) violated the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”) by failing to adhere to its requirements with respect to its customers’ loss mitigation applications and that Nationstar violated Maryland law by not timely responding to its customers’ mortgage servicing complaints. Nationstar denies all allegations of wrongdoing and no judgment or determination of wrongdoing has been made.

Current Status

The Final Approval Order, approving the Class-wide Settlement, was entered December 11, 2020. Distribution of funds to Class Members, however, could not occur because a member of the Class filed an objection to the Settlement and a subsequent appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.

On February 10, 2022, the Court of Appeals issued a decision affirming the Final Approval Order. Under the terms of the Settlement, if nothing else occurs in the litigation, then the Settlement will become effective 95 days from the date of that decision by the Court of Appeals. The Class Action Administrator would then begin distribution of the settlement funds. Any additional updates will be posted here.
