Bankruptcy trustee sues Countrywide

The US bankruptcy trustee in Atlanta sued Countrywide Home Loans in federal bankruptcy court. Countrywide is one of the largest mortgage lenders in the country. The suit charges the mortgage company with questionable conduct related in dealings with a chapter 13 bankruptcy case. The US trustee contends that Countrywide charged improper fees and falsely claimed the borrowers were behind on their payments. The trustee also charged that Countrywide wrongfully accepted payments on the mortgage from the Chapter 13 office after the loan was paid off.
