Settlement Agreement
On March 23, 2012, the Commissioner, along with regulators from several other states ("State Mortgage Regulators"), entered into a Settlement Agreement with James B. Nutter & Company ("Nutter"), Kansas City, Missouri. The Settlement Agreement was based on a multi-state examination conducted by, among others, the Consumer Credit Division. As a result of such examination, the Commissioner alleged that Nutter employed or retained, during the period of June 1, 2008 to May 31, 2010, individuals as mortgage loan originators who were not licesned, in violation of Section 36a-486(b) of the then applicable Connecticut General Statutes. As part of the Settlement Agreement, Nutter agreed to pay $13,000 to the Department.
