| Home Equity Mortgage Trust Summary: The complaint charges certain officers and directors of the underwriter Credit Suisse, as well as credit ratings institutions Moody's and DBRS with misleading investors in regards to the risk levels of Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates. Plaintiffs allege that the Underwriter did not use proper due diligence in assessing the securities and that the ratings agencies assigned the securities the highest ratings levels despite being tied to the high-risk subprime market. The complaint was originally filed in the Supreme Court in the State of New York on June 3, 2008 but was removed to the Southern District Court of New York after a motion filed by Moody's.
