Veteran sues Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing over forbearance and foreclosure
Lawsuit filed
A Mississippi veteran sued NewRez, LLC, which operates as Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, on August 13, 2026, in the US District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, alleging the servicer told him to miss a payment to qualify for forbearance, reported him 120 days late during forbearance, and moved to foreclose without required VA approval. He seeks an injunction to halt an August 26, 2026 foreclosure sale, actual and emotional distress damages, attorneys' fees, and RESPA statutory damages. The claims remain unproven and no court has ruled.

He is asking a judge to halt a foreclosure sale set for August 26.
The homeowner sued NewRez, LLC, which operates as Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, on August 13, 2026, in the US District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi.
The suit brings three claims: a violation of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, or RESPA, for failing to evaluate all loss-mitigation options and give written notice of them; a request for an injunction to stop the sale; and breach of the deed of trust's duty of good faith and fair dealing.
