McCurdy v. Professional Credit Service, No. 6:15-cv-01498-AA, Doc. 50 (D. Or. July 25, 2017)
The parties have reached a settlement of this action in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon. The settlement provides for a common fund from which participating class members will receive an equal share.
This case stems from alleged violations by Professional Credit Service ("Defendant") of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ("FDCPA"), in connection with its debt collection efforts. Lead Plaintiff alleged that Defendant violated the FDCPA by failing to provide consumers with proper disclosures in its initial debt collection letters.
The Settlement Class is defined as:
All persons (a) with an address within the United States, (b) to whom Defendant sent an initial written communication between April 1, 2015 and April 30, 2015, (c) that stated, in part, “If you dispute any account referenced in this letter, please send all information regarding the dispute to P.O. Box 70127, Springfield, OR 97475,” (d) in connection with the collection of a consumer debt.
The Court preliminarily approved the settlement on July 25, 2017, and granted final approval on November 15, 2017.
