If Rop were to settle they all will settle ... They're arguing the same points.

The only thing that is truly different between Rop and Collins is Direct vs Derivative claims, where Rop is only asking for derivative while Collins is asking for direct & derivative.

That is the only real difference, which would make sense for FHFA & Treasury to settle the derivative suit(s) and allow the next administration to deal with direct claims.

I could see the gov de facto settling with the FnF via derivative claims. I do not see the gov settling with individuals unless there is a legal judgement.

With all the pending major issues within the scope of SCOTUS, it seems quite odd that any lower court Judge would be asking parties to a lawsuit to discuss settlement prior to SCOTUS decision and direction

I understand Mediation is a standard litigation tool, but scheduling this just before SCOTUS does get your attention.......it got mine.
