   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-1136
   District of North Dakota - Bismarck   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Gruender and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - consumer law. District court did not err in granting defendant's motion for summary judgment on claim it had violated Section 1692e of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act; a jury could find that defendant's empty threat to sue violated Section 1692e(5) of the Act, and the district court erred in granting defendant summary judgment on this claim; defendant presented sufficient evidence that its violation of a North Dakota statute prohibiting payment of interest on interest which is overdue was a bona fide error made notwithstanding the maintenance of procedures reasonably calculated to prevent such errors, and it was entitled to summary judgment under Section 1692k(c) of the Act.
