FDCPA Violation
By: Derek Hawkins//January 28, 2020//
Listen to this article7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: Thomas Dennis, Jr., v. Niagara Credit Solutions, Inc., et al.
Case No.: 19-1654
Officials: FLAUM, HAMILTON, and BARRETT, Circuit Judges.
Focus: FDCPA Violation
The plaintiff Thomas Dennis received a debt collection letter listing “original” and “current” creditors, which he claims violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The FDPCA requires that a debt collector send the debtor a written notice containing “the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed.” Because the letter accurately and clearly identified the creditor to whom Dennis’s debt was owed, we affirm the district court’s judgment on the pleadings in favor of defendants.
