Judge Sets December Trial in FCRA Dispute vs. Verizon, Experian

A jury trial is scheduled to begin Dec. 18 on plaintiff Helen Pollak’s allegations that Experian refuses to remove a fraudulent Verizon account from her credit profile (see 2212290001), said an order signed Thursday by Chief U.S. District Judge Beth Phillips for Western Missouri in Kansas City. Pollak alleges it’s “profoundly unfair” Verizon can verify false information, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and that Experian “continues to let them do it.” Verizon denied FCRA culpability.
