Motions for Summary Judgment Denied in Case of Collection Letter That Failed to State Interest Would Accrue

On May 18, 2017, a federal judge in Missouri denied joint motions for summary judgment on the issue of whether a letter that “did not state that interest was accruing”, violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The case is Mygatt v. Medicredit, Inc. (Case No. 15-1947, U.S. D.C., Eastern District of Missouri).
