How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that plaintiff had not alleged a concrete injury of reputational harm where he failed to support his allegation that his credit rating was injured
- holding that disclosure of customer’s propensity-to-pay score establishes a concrete injury, despite providing “less information” than a full credit report
- holding that “[t]o sum it up … [the plaintiff] has standing to sue. She testified that [the defendant] invaded her privacy when it reviewed her credit information”
- holding that “[n]onpecuniary harms, including reputational damage and emotional distress, may also follow an FCRA violation, though these harms must be described in ‘reasonable detail’— conclusory statements are insufficient”
- instructing that “[t]he Article III standing inquiry remains open to review at all stages of the litigation”
- holding unauthorized requests of a consumer’s credit history are sufficiently close to intrusion upon seclusion
