Amicus Briefs

ALFN AMICUS BRIEFS COMMITTEE
The ALFN Amicus Briefs Committee monitors appellate cases with the potential for major industry or practitioner impact. The group reviews and approves submitted cases as well as coordinates position development, authorship, and submission of amicus briefs on behalf of the ALFN. The Amicus Briefs Committee meets quarterly and as cases are suggested and thereafter as necessary. To request the ALFN's support as a friend of the court in a case pertinent to the mortgage servicing industry, contact info@alfn.org. ALFN members may submit cases to the Amicus Briefs Committee for review at any point by emailing info@alfn.org.
