I probably said too much the first time, and this will be my last post regarding this situation. I called Pete to make him aware of this post so if he can and wants to add then it's up to him.
Here's what I am able to say at this point because of some legal issues that prevent me from saying too much.
Dig a little and you'll find what you need on Mark and Russ. Or just wait a little bit, and it'll come to light. Keep your eye on Orange County.
When you're a one-trick refi pony and hedged virtually everything on one large client - then the market turns and said client goes down hard you get stuck. Bad business decision? Sure. Malicious? No.

That link will lead you to where you want to start to begin to understand what happened. At a few thousand orders per month and 3 months unpaid (never paid), some internal wrangling by a partner or two and disaster is imminent.
Obviously there's probably a lot more that I'm not aware of but that's the meat and potatoes.
