How courts have described this case

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

• concluding that California’s litigation privilege does not apply to federal causes of action like the FDCPA
• holding that California litigation privilege did not apply to Fair Debt Collection 10 Practices Act claim
• holding that statute proscribing abusive debt- collection practices not subject to litigation privilege
• rejecting aiding and abetting liability under the FDCPA because it “expressly imposes liability only for the violations of a ‘debt collector’”
• applying the principle of statutory construction that the later, more specific Rosenthal Act prevails over the earlier, more general Section 47 privilege
• finding RFDCPA prevailed over litigation privilege because application in that case would have “effectively immunized conduct that the Act prohibits” such as “repeated, continuous and harassing telephone calls”
