Lawsuit claims mortgage firm discriminated against minorities

The Illinois Attorney General has filed a discrimination lawsuit against mortgage firm Countrywide Financial Corporation. The lawsuit accuses the firm of discriminating against minority borrowers by subjecting them to much riskier loans. The lawsuit said the "company's practices caused about 6,000 African-American and Latino borrowers to be steered into subprime mortgages and in some cases charged higher prices for their mortgages." The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.  Cynthia Dizikes, Chicago Tribune  06/29/2010
