   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-1947
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Riley and Hansen, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Gramm-Leach-Biley Act. No private right of action exists for violation of the Act; plaintiff's state law claims based on a violation of the Act fail because the financial information he contends was wrongfully disclosed had lost its nonpublic character when he filed a reparations complaint against defendant; further, defendant's actions in delivering a demand letter did not violate the Act as they are excepted under provisions of the Act which permit use of appropriate and acceptable means of collecting or settling a debt.
