United States Second Circuit
Macpherson v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., 10-3722
In a case in which an individual asserted state common law claims against a bank for defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress stemming from the bank's alleged willful and malicious provision of false information about his finances to a consumer credit reporting agency, the district court's Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal is affirmed, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act preempts the state law claims.
