Old Court S&L faces conservatorship amid alleged irregularities
The Baltimore Sun reports Old Court S&L bloated to 840 million with rapid growth and insiders, including president Jeffrey Levitt, cited in court papers. Alleged issues include $5.7 million in overdrafts and $5.78 million in unsecured loans to insiders, $1.96 million in Levitt fees, and improper refinancing and underwriting of loans. The state seeks a conservatorship as Old Court draws $50 million from the Federal Reserve and contemplates asset risk. Experts note Levitt defended the bank, while Ohio closed privately insured S&Ls in March to avert runs.
