DJSP Enterprises, Inc. Responds to Recent Developments
14 Octobre 2010 - 10:56PM
DJSP Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq:DJSP) (Nasdaq:DJSPW) (Nasdaq:DJSPU)
today announced that it has instituted staff reductions as a result
of reduced file volumes. DJSP has reduced its staffing levels by
approximately 10% and continues to evaluate additional measures in
response to the reduction in file volumes. File referrals from
DJSP's principal client, The Law Offices of David J. Stern, P.A.
have declined dramatically following the decision by numerous
national mortgage lenders to suspend new and existing foreclosure
cases pending a review of foreclosure documentation and
procedures. The suspension of foreclosure cases has adversely
impacted file volumes in each of DJSP's foreclosure, title and REO
liquidation divisions. There have also been reports in the
press that a number of the clients of The Law Offices of David J.
Stern, P.A. have or plan to suspend new referrals to the firm
pending resolution of an investigation of the law firm announced by
the Attorney General of the State of Florida this past August.
The Company also announced that its Audit Committee, comprised
entirely of independent directors, has commenced
an internal investigation with respect to compliance with
applicable legal requirements of the Company's mortgage foreclosure
processing procedures. This internal investigation is in its
initial stages. The Audit Committee has retained
Greenberg Traurig, P.A. as independent counsel to assist the Audit
Committee in the conduct of its investigation.
Pending the outcome of the investigation, the Company's
management intends to take appropriate steps to ensure that
current mortgage foreclosure processing procedures are conducted in
compliance with those requirements.
David J. Stern, Chairman and CEO commented, "Recent developments
in the industry are unprecedented. We are closely monitoring
developments in the industry and will take any necessary additional
steps as dictated by these developments."
