The Sixth Circuit reversed an award of summary judgment in favor of a debt collector, where the debtor argued the law firm a failed to verify the disputed debt, as required by the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1692, et seq. (“FDCPA”).

By failing to properly validate the debt , the Court held that the Firm violated §1692g(b).

The Court granted Summary Judgment to the Debtor.
