SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 17 – Sandra Klaus sued
M&T Bank, who seeking to
acquire People's United, for
improperly dealing with a
convicted felon in connection
with an auto
loan.
On May 17, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Paul A.
Engelmayer held a proceeding.
Inner City Press covered
it.
M&T's
lawyer bad-mouthed the
plaintiff all the while saying
the bank is open to mediation
or a Magistrate Judge. Judge
Engelmayer opined that this
was not your usual Fair Credit
Reporting Act case.
Indeed:
M&T's lawyer said the bank
was somehow not aware of the
felony, because it made the
loan "between the indictment
and the sentencing." What
about the guilty plea or
conviction?
Another conference has been
set for July 19.
The case is Klaus
v. M&T Bank Corporation,
20-cv-6179 (Engelmayer)
