Today, in the first decision on a motion to dismiss in a case brought by an “agent” seeking fees from lenders for allegedly helping small business borrowers obtain loans under the Paycheck Protection Program, Judge Wetherell in the Northern District of Florida granted defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims. As to the “central issue of first impression . . . whether Plaintiff and others like it are entitled to any portion of the fees paid by the federal government to lenders like Defendants who were tasked with handing out hundreds of billions of dollars of ‘loans’ under the [PPP],” Judge Wetherell held that “[t]he short answer is ‘no.’”
