NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Navient Corporation (NASDAQ: NAVI) securities between February 25, 2016 and October 4, 2017 (the “Class Period”). Investors have until December 15, 2017 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.
On October 4, 2017, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s office filed a lawsuit alleging that Navient deceived student loan borrowers to boost profit. According to Pennsylvania Attorney General, Josh Shapiro, “The scheme costs billions of dollars that's been taken out of the pockets of students.”
Following this news, shares of Navient fell $2.10 per share, or over 14%, to close at $12.60 per share on October 5, 2017.
