182776P.pdf     04/22/2019  Dina Klein  v.  Credico Inc.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-2776
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Benton and Grasz, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Use of an abbreviation 
   for defendant's other registered name and the phrase "Professional Debt 
   Collectors" in correspondence was not false, misleading or deceptive and 
   plaintiff failed to plead sufficient factual matter to state a plausible 
   claim defendant violated the Act; inclusion of a non-licensed signatory in 
   the signature block did not violate the Act as the other two signatories 
   were licensed, as was defendant; the district court properly concluded 
   Minnesota law does not prohibit defendant from seeking pre-judgment 
   interest. 
  
182805U.pdf     04/22/2019  United States  v.  Jose Corio-Raymundo
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-2805
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
   [UNPUBLISHED] [Per Curiam - Before Loken, Gruender and Shepherd, Circuit 
   Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Evidence was sufficient to 
   support defendant's conviction for using a forged identification document 
   as evidence of authorized employment and of misusing for tax purposes a 
   social security number not assigned to him; within-Guidelines sentence was 
   not substantively unreasonable.
