Other Credit / Debt Cases of Interest A class action lawsuit was filed against the nation’s largest tax resolution company, JK Harris & Company LLC, for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract including the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The lawsuit seeks to stop JK Harris & Company from continuing unacceptable business practices.

The fees were based on foreign transactions, including both purchases and ATM wihdrawals, from February 1, 1996 to November 8, 2006. All of those miscellaneous charges that companies add on to credit purchases are regulated by state and federal law. The parties have reached a tentative settlement in a class action against Schewel Furniture Company, Inc. on behalf of all Virginia residents to whom the company improperly applied finance charges, thereby violating Virginia's Consumer Protection Act and the federal Truth in Lending Act. On October 29, 2004, the court dismissed a class action that had been filed against Citibank, Toyota and several debt purchasing and collection services, alleging that these companies have engaged in a systematic and intentional violation of federal law by attempting to collect debts from customers who have filed for bankruptcy and thus received an automatic stay regarding their debts pending discharge. A letter was sent out last July or August about the theft of personal and financial information by an employee at Certegy Check Services, Inc. A settlement has now been reached about that theft. |
