The Saxton Plaintiffs asked the Court for permission this afternoon to file certain documents under seal in support of their motion for leave to amend their complaint, and a copy of that request is attached to this e-mail message. Those certain documents, of course, are confidential documents Fairhome obtained in discovery.
Without delay, Magistrate Scoles granted the Saxton Plaintiffs’ request, and a copy of that order is also attached to this e-mail message.
So, under seal, there is now a pending motion for leave to amend the complaint filed in Saxton v. FHFA, and two secret documents are attached to that motion. We can anticipate that FHFA and Treasury will oppose the Saxton Plaintiffs’ motion for leave to amend the complaint, arguing that effort is futile because HERA doesn’t allow shareholders to sue FHFA or Treasury for any reason.15-00047-0050
