CLLA Staff, Staff | September 28, 2007

 With the release of the "White Paper," authors Manuel H. Newburger, Ed Walton and Barbara M. Barron urge the FTC to support a modernization of the 30 year old FDCPA. The proposed changes to the Act would reflect current and future technology issues. The CLLA is also recommending a change in the Act to preserve vital common law immunities from liability for the contents of pleadings and witness testimony.
