Gavey Properties/762 v. First Financial Savings & Loan Association

Court of Appeals for the First Circuit

Decided May 10, 1988No. 87-1111PublishedCited by 20 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

EDITH H. JONES, Circuit Judge:

Appellant, Gavey Properties/762 (“Ga-vey”), seeks reversal of the summary judgment denying relief on its claim of usury against Appellee, First Financial Savings & Loan Association (“First Financial”). 1 The district court, interpreting 12 U.S.C. § 1730g(a), held that the loan was governed by Illinois law, which does not impose a commercial loan usury limit. We affirm the district court’s construction of the “most-favored lender” provision of the Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act of 1980 (DIDMCA).
