Settlement Is Reached in Fair Debt Collection Act Complaint vs. DirecTV

U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola for Southern Mississippi in Gulfport entered a judgment of dismissal with prejudice in the Fair Debt Collection Act complaint brought against DirecTV after the parties reached a settlement, said the judge’s signed order Tuesday (docket 1:23-cv-00354). Each party will bear its own costs, said the order. Plaintiffs Jim and Maria Davis had alleged in their Dec. 7 complaint that DirecTV sent them past due notices after they had canceled service on one of their accounts (see 2312080037).
