Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that the collection letter’s references to litigation did not overshadow or contradict its debt validation language
- holding that it was not an FDCPA violation to include an attorneys’ fees charge in a debt collection letter when that fee was autho- rized by an agreement between the creditor and debtor
- “All of this [work] takes time and costs money, as do the insurance premiums that Riddle pays to cover its business and the administrative and technical staffs it employs and the information systems it operates.”
