Note 4. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Claims

The Company is involved in various legal matters and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While these matters and proceedings cause it to incur costs, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, the Company currently believes that any ultimate liability arising out of these matters and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Road Home Contract

Although no legal proceeding has been commenced, the Company has received correspondence from the Office of Community Development of the State of Louisiana, claiming that the Company is responsible for the overpayment of Road Home program grant funds to some grant applicants. The Company anticipates that it will receive additional correspondence from the Office of Community Development related to the claim. The total claim received by the Company is approximately $60 million. The Company believes this claim has no merit, intends to vigorously defend its position, and has therefore not recorded a liability as of June 30, 2013.
