As far as "impartiality of the law" is concerned, this press release was a constant presumption of guilt. I had problems with the article, and I had ChatGPT and Gemini read it to make sure I wasn't crazy and this was the analysis of problems, here's what we came out with:
- Strong and prejudicial Language used: "illegal" "fraudulent" "scheme"
- Focused negativity on alleged wrong-doing, ignoring balanced information
- Presenting the Attorney General's perspective as fact
- Seeking immediate remedies rather than waiting for trial
Press-releases are one-sided by nature, this one takes the cake.

They are probably done and it would be interesting if any of them post here ever again. But, if true, the level of fraud and deceit surpasses Par Funding. I guess all that money needs to go back.

"The perpetrators of this scheme provided contracts that fraudulently described each transaction as a purchase of a portion of a merchant’s future revenues, with flexible payment amounts and open-ended terms. In reality, the predatory lenders collected payments at fixed daily amounts, which they debited directly from merchants’ bank accounts over short repayment terms, such as 60 or 90 days."
This is the real alarm bell ringing here
Get ready for daily logins for those ACH debits lol

Is this the result of the wording in their contracts itself that caused this shake up?

Um..... did anyone notice that the list on Page 23 is World Global Capital LLC?
"Richmond Funding" "Karish Funding" "Yes Funding" "Everlasting Capital" "24 Capital" "1 West"
Whoever owns these took names of other companies, copied them to be similar to do .... something.
Richmond Capital, Karish Kapital, Yes Funder, Everlasting Capital is in NH, 24 Capital Advance, and 1 West is a DBA of Jaydee Ventures.
(I see Velocity on there too, I'm not sure what their company is truly called.)
The real TVT is TVT Capital LLC, and this lawsuit is against TVT Capital HR and TVT Cap Fund.

You don't need "daily logins." The correct solution to avoid this lawsuit in the first place is to develop a monitoring like what Fundkite did and have weekly automatic reconciliation, for the good or bad (or you can cap it). Or go back to CC splits.

This is honestly old news from 2020. The question is only if the reconciliation clause was truly honored. Top of page 46, and onwards from point 126. It appears that their main push is that they were using "what fixed daily can they afford?" to underwrite the files (point 142) and the "Specified Percentage" was an estimate and nobody bothered to actually hone in on that. The question remains, if the merchant can send in statements and can reconcile later, what's the problem? The AG has to prove that the defendants acted in bad faith.
I don't follow number 158. No funder is obligated to underwrite in a way that the AG says that they must. The AG claims that higher amounts automatically means lower specified percentage. No, it's my investment/purchase, I don't want to buy $150k for $100k if it's going to take me a few years to collect it. Specified Percentage is a reverse calculation, and the AG wants underwriters to think like her, otherwise it's a loan? Very shaky here.
I'm skimming through most of it, but it does appear that most of the rest from 169 and onwards is that Yellowstone/Delta Bridge did very little
The AG is also worried that reconciliation demands refunds. If they took a ceiling of 15% of the daily, and really it was 25%, then they should send back the other 10%.
---
From page 178 is gets interesting:
FRAUD with merchants.
On page 189, #519, if true, is again, a big problem. These are VERY OLD stories, though, if they cleaned up their act or not? You have to check with them.
Then Page 183 is SUPER INTERESTING: Bait and switch! The AG is suing Yellowstone for the promises of lines of credit by brokers, and not enough safeguards or oversight.
---
BTW, a ton of this stuff complaints about Jon Braun and Steve Davis who have long left the company, and after the rebranding and changing habits and reforms, the AG won't let them off the hook. "You're the same Yellowstone, just an extension." Suing them under a statute of limitations clause. That opens up a HUGE can of worms, not sure how to think about that one. Close shop and never do business again because one of your employees that you fired was a fraud?

Credit Card Split Funding with a Lockbox or Direct Integration with the processor eliminates the reconciliation issue.
IMO - a true MCA cannot have a fixed term - it is a purchase of FUTURE Receivables and since none of us can predict the Future,
a daily payment should be a flexible dollar amount.Dave Lambert, Business Development

"Jerry Bush, a plumber based in Virginia, was told by Respondent Steve Davis that death was the only escape from his ballooning debts to Yellowstone (or winning the lottery), the merchant attempted suicide in a desperate attempt to save himself and his family from a bottomless pit of debt."
YIKES...
I'm not that far into this, but this is going to turn into criminal indictments.
I wonder how "The Fundworks, and TVT and others are going to feel about them using their name and similar names to misrepresent themselves as these companies?
