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.
