Arizona sues BofA over mortgage modifications

Arizona is filing a civil lawsuit against Bank of America Corp. alleging the company violated the state’s consumer fraud law by misleading consumers trying to get loan modifications.

Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard said Friday that the bank also violated the terms of a 2009 consent agreement it signed requiring the bank’s Countrywide mortgage subsidiary to implement a loan modification program.
