U.S. seeks $864 million from BofA after fraud verdict [ BeritaTerkini ]

The amount is based on the gross loss Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac incurred on the HSSL loans, the government said.</p> <p>Bank of America, the second-largest U.S. bank, has previously said it is evaluating its options for appeal. It is scheduled to respond to the government’s penalty request by November 20.</p> <p>“We believe the filing overstates the volume of loans and the appropriate measure of damages arising from one narrow Countrywide program that lasted several months and ended before Bank of America acquired the company,” Lawrence Grayson, a spokesman for the bank, said Saturday.</p> <p>In its filing, the government did not said it was holding off on recommending an amount to penalize Mairone until after it analyzed a financial disclosure form she provided Friday. The government also raised the question of whether Bank of America may indemnify her for the penalty.</p> <p>Mairone joined JPMorgan Chase & Co. after leaving the bank. Her lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment Saturday.</p> <p>Penalties will be assessed by U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff, who presided over the four-week trial in Manhattan.</p> <p>The October 23 verdict was a major victory for the U.S. Department of Justice, which along with other regulators has been criticized by investors, politicians and others for failing to hold banks and individuals accountable for their roles in events leading up to the 2008 financial crisis.</p> <p>Bank of America paid $ 2.5 billion for Countrywide, but analysts have said that acquisition has since cost the Charlotte, North Carolina-based bank tens of billions of dollars for litigation, loan repurchases and writedowns.</p> <p>In October, Bank of America disclosed that staff of an unspecified U.S. Attorney’s office plan to recommend that the Justice Department file a civil action against the bank related to the securitization of mortgages.</p> <p>And in August, the government filed two civil lawsuits in North Carolina accusing the bank of understating the risks of about $ 850 million of mortgage securities. The bank moved to dismiss those case Friday.</p> <p>The Hustle case, like some other financial crisis cases recently pursued by the government, was brought under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act, a law passed after the 1980s savings-and-loan scandals.</p> <p>That law carries a lower burden of proof than criminal cases, and a 10-year statute of limitations in which to bring cases, twice as long as in typical securities fraud cases.</p> <p>The case is U.S. ex rel O’Donnell v.

The Stanford offense that once belonged to Jonathan Martin, whose face is emblazoned in Stanford Stadium as an All-American, milked clock for more than 42 minutes and converted 12 of its first 16 third downs with glass-chewing toughness.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Just how the SEC would do it, right, David Shaw?</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Stop it.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">As Stanford's leader left the stadium, still holding a colorful play sheet the size of a Denny's menu, he was asked whether he had an ounce of intrigue about what Stanford would do in a full SEC schedule.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">He really doesn't like the SEC comparison, he reminds.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">There's no tougher conference schedule to navigate than the Pac-12's, Shaw says, in part because of the SEC's November "cupcake" nonconference games such as FCS opponents.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><aside style="float: left; font-family: Ubuntu, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.4em; margin: 20px 20px 20px 0px; width: 220px;"><header style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 0, 0); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cc0000; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 500; margin-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase; width: 220px;">GAME RECAP</header><a href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/gametracker/recap/NCAAF_20131107_OREG@STNFRD/gaffney-powers-no-6-stanford-past-no-2-oregon" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Stanford 26, Oregon 20</a></aside><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"You can write that -- cupcakes," Shaw told CBSSports.com.

An <a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/players/playerpage/1880851/ifo-ekpreolomu" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Ifo Ekpre-Olomu</a> interception overturned by a holding penalty hurt, followed by costly fumbles by Mariota and De'Anthony Thomas within scoring range.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"We just weren't able to finish drives," Mariota said.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">The Ducks hung around, returning a late field goal block for a touchdown and recovering an onside kick that Mariota converted to a score, a beautiful 12-yard pass to <a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/players/playerpage/1996157/pharaoh-brown" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Pharaoh Brown</a> on fourth down with 2:12 left.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">But it was far too late. Stanford is built to play with a lead.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"I've got to prepare them better," Helfrich said. "There's a ton of stuff."</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Stanford hasn't played this well every week, which shows why the annual midseason debate about whether the BCS will fairly treat three or four undefeated teams seems futile.

The Stanford offense that once belonged to Jonathan Martin, whose face is emblazoned in Stanford Stadium as an All-American, milked clock for more than 42 minutes and converted 12 of its first 16 third downs with glass-chewing toughness.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Just how the SEC would do it, right, David Shaw?</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Stop it.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">As Stanford's leader left the stadium, still holding a colorful play sheet the size of a Denny's menu, he was asked whether he had an ounce of intrigue about what Stanford would do in a full SEC schedule.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">He really doesn't like the SEC comparison, he reminds.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">There's no tougher conference schedule to navigate than the Pac-12's, Shaw says, in part because of the SEC's November "cupcake" nonconference games such as FCS opponents.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><aside style="float: left; font-family: Ubuntu, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.4em; margin: 20px 20px 20px 0px; width: 220px;"><header style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 0, 0); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cc0000; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 500; margin-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase; width: 220px;">GAME RECAP</header><a href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/gametracker/recap/NCAAF_20131107_OREG@STNFRD/gaffney-powers-no-6-stanford-past-no-2-oregon" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Stanford 26, Oregon 20</a></aside><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;"></div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"You can write that -- cupcakes," Shaw told CBSSports.com. "It's hard from here on out in our conference."</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Comments like Shaw's deepen the cross-country curiosity for a fight that probably won't happen. Don't count on FSU, which won't play a team with a winning record the rest of November, to drop a game. And if Bama or FSU fall, Baylor or Ohio State might have the undefeated trump card.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">But if you extract Stanford's curious 27-21 loss to Utah nearly a month ago, do you see a contender?</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"I'll let the country see what we're all about," Shaw said.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">This game was unfortunate. People came all the way to California to watch a light show. Instead, they saw one of the best offenses of the past few years relegated to garbage-time touchdowns. Oregon first scored with 10:11 left, a 23-yard strike from <a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1880862/marcus-mariota" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Marcus Mariota</a> to<a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/players/playerpage/1700625/daryle-hawkins" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Daryle Hawkins</a>.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">For all the talk of Oregon fans wanting Bama, the Ducks really wanted a nap through the first three quarters. <a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1880868/deanthony-thomas" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">De'Anthony Thomas</a> wanted 40 points, but the Ducks barely got off 40 plays.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">Stanford's game plan was clear-cut: keep Oregon on the sideline.</div><div style="line-height: 1.35em; margin-bottom: 0.6em;">"We went to the locker room and I felt we hadn't even played yet," Oregon left tackle <a class="playerLink" href="http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/players/playerpage/1880857/tyler-johnstone" style="color: #6e8dcf; text-decoration: none;">Tyler Johnstone</a> said.</div></div><footer style="background-color: white; color: #082046; font-family: Ubuntu, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;"></footer>

color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 10px; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1.7em; margin-top: 1.5em;"><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Then, urged by his father, the Little Leaguer fought back, pummeling one of his tormentors, blackening both his eyes.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">The chunky boy grew up to become a menacing 320-pound N.F.L. lineman who was largely unknown outside football circles — until he was accused of being a big-league bully.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Richie Incognito was <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/05/sports/football/for-the-nfl-a-question-of-hazing-or-abuse.html" style="color: #666699;" title="In Bullying Case, Questions on N.F.L. Culture">suspended by the Miami Dolphins</a>, his third N.F.L. team in five years, amid allegations that he bullied Jonathan Martin, his teammate on the offensive line who left the team last week and has not returned. The news hardly came as a shock to most of those who had crossed paths with Incognito since his college years. A snarling, tattooed, 6-foot-3 dynamo, Incognito dominated opponents even as he stretched the boundaries of civil conduct during games and in everyday life.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">But whatever trouble Incognito encountered — and there were numerous scrapes with the law, with coaches and with teammates from New York to Oregon — there was always a football team that wanted him. In a game in which intimidation rules, coaches mostly prized Incognito’s aggression and were willing to overlook his other problems.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">But how did Incognito, plump-cheeked and boyish even in his college photo, transform into a man suspected of terrorizing his own teammate, referring to him publicly as the Big Weirdo? It would be simplistic to point to a childhood fistfight as a turning point, but people from Incognito’s past still remember the teasing he endured as a kid, and the response he delivered.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">The fight “sent the right message to the town,” said Seth Bendian, who gave Richie private baseball instruction near his hometown, Bogota, N.J. “And Richie remained a nice, quiet kid.”</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Incognito became more aggressive as his career developed until he landed in Miami, which had a locker room culture that seemed unchecked. Glimpses of that world that have emerged in recent days have ignited a national debate over the fuzzy area between camaraderie and bullying.</div><div itemprop="articleBody" style="color: black; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Martin’s lawyer said Thursday that Martin had endured more than a year of physical and verbal abuse, including a threat against his sister. He blamed <a class="meta-org" href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/sports/profootball/nationalfootballleague/miamidolphins/index.html?inline=nyt-org" style="color: #666699;" title="Recent news and scores about the Miami Dolphins.">Dolphins</a> teammates, but did not single out Incognito. Martin, who reportedly has kept a menacing and racist voice mail from Incognito, is cooperating with an N.F.L. investigation. At the center of it all is Incognito, 30, who has spent virtually his entire adult life struggling to keep his behavior within accepted limits of propriety.</div></div>

padding: 0px;"><article><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The typhoon slammed into six central Philippine islands on Friday, wiping away buildings and leveling seaside homes. At least 118 of the confirmed deaths were on hardest-hit Leyte Island, where Tacloban is located, said national disaster agency spokesman Maj. Reynaldo Balido.</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">But after arriving in Tacloban on Saturday, Interior Secretary Mar Roxas said it was too early to know how many people had died in the storm, which was heading toward Vietnam after moving away from the Philippines.</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">“The rescue operation is ongoing. We expect a very high number of fatalities as well as injured,” Roxas said. “All systems, all vestiges of modern living — communications, power, water — all are down. Media is down, so there is no way to communicate with the people in a mass sort of way.”</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">President Benigno Aquino III said the casualties “will be substantially more,” but gave no figure or estimate. He said the government’s priority was to restore power and communications in isolated areas to allow for the delivery of relief and medical assistance to victims.</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The Philippine Red Cross and its partners were preparing for a major relief effort “because of the magnitude of the disaster,” said the agency’s chairman, Richard Gordon.</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The airport in Tacloban, a city of 200,000 located about 580 kilometers (360 miles) southeast of Manila, looked like a muddy wasteland of debris Saturday, with crumpled tin roofs and upturned cars. The airport tower’s glass windows were shattered, and air force helicopters were busy flying in and out at the start of relief operations.</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">“The devastation is, I don’t have the words for it,” Roxas said. “It’s really horrific. It’s a great human tragedy.”</div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin said Aquino was “speechless” when he told him of the devastation the typhoon had wrought in Tacloban.</div></article></div></div></div>
