1 day agoeXp denied dismissal of fraud claims in sexual misconduct case
Allegations of negligence and misrepresentation against eXp and its leadership regarding reported assaults were not dismissed by the court.
The Gibson plaintiffs claimed that eXp negotiated the agreement with the Hooper plaintiffs after conducting prolonged, unsuccessful settlement negotiations with Intervenor Plaintiff counsel, conducting a reverse auction in an attempt to gain a sweetheart deal.
Sevajian said the move reflects a strategic decision for her team. This isn't starting over, she said. It's starting smarter. We're building something that works better for our agents, our clients and our lives. Working primarily in the greater Boston market and since 2020, Sevajian led the top local operation in Andover, Mass., for her previous brokerage.
The sexual assault lawsuit filed against eXp Realty by Anya Roberts now has one fewer defendant. Earlier this month, Roberts notified the court that she had reached a settlement with defendant Brent Gove. According to the filing, the settlement terms are confidential, but it notes that the settlement fully and finally resolves all of the plaintiff's claims against him in the lawsuit. Gove is the only defendant the settlement covers.
