How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding that predominance was satisfied where the common question was whether the defendant’s form letter violated § 1692e
- finding predominance satisfied where the “same legal issue would need to be decided with respect to each class member” in order to determine whether defendants routine practice of mailing a certain form collection letter violated the FDCPA
- rejecting the defendant's argument \that certification should be denied because class members could obtain a larger award if they filed individual suits\ in part because that argument \presumes that the class members are aware that their rights may have been violated\
