A putative class action, Harris, Ernest and Mattie v. FIS Foreclosure Solutions, Inc., which alleged that a subsidiary of Lender Processing Services, Inc.

The case was originally filed on January 16, 2008 as an adversary proceeding in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of Texas, and subsequently removed to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas in April 2008. In connection with the action, LPS paid no monetary damages (including no attorney fees, costs or expenses) nor was the plaintiff granted any equitable relief.
