Lasnetski v. Secretary of Health and Human Services

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “[T]he FDCPA is aimed at curbing abuses by third-party debt-collection agents who are much more involved in actual debt collection than Safeguard, whose primary purpose is property preservation.”
• the FDCPA’s “substantive provisions apply only to debt collectors”; creditors, thus, are not subject to the FDCPA “as long as they are collecting their own debt in their own name and their ‘principal purpose’ as an entity is not debt collection.”
