How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding a rational factfinder could conclude that a lawyer whose collection work encompassed over 600 demand letters, but represented only 0.5 percent of his practice during the relevant nine-month period, regularly engaged in debt collection
- attorney regularly collected consumer debts when he had sent 639 demand letters during a nine- month period
- “[I]f the volume of a person’s debt collection activity is great enough, it is irrelevant that these services only amount to a small fraction of his total business activity; the person still renders them ‘regularly.’”
