Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 7, 2006 Bennett Ray Lunceford and Ann M. Lunceford filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division naming Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (the "Company") as a nominal defendant and naming all of our current directors as defendants. Also named as defendants in this lawsuit were Warren D. Edwards, the Company's current Chief Financial Officer, John Rexford, a current executive officer of the Company, Jeffrey A. Rich, the Company's former CEO and a former director, and John M. Brophy, a current employee and former executive officer of the Company. This lawsuit alleges breaches of fiduciary duties, breaches of federal securities law and other claims related to stock option grants to directors and certain executive officers. The Company does not believe the claims in this lawsuit have merit and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
