United States Second Circuit
Altman v. J.C. Christensen & Associates, Inc., 14‐2240
In a putative class action against a debt collection company, alleging violations of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) by offering to settle a debt for less than the full amount without warning that total savings might be reduced by an increase in tax liability, the district court's dismissal is affirmed where a debt collector need not warn of possible tax consequences when making a settlement offer for less than the full amount owed to comply with FDCPA.
