    OC charged off balance in 02 (reported to CRA's). CA starts calling in 02/05 (nothing reported to CRA). I request validation from CA and Cease and Decist in 03/05, calls stop but no written response. Is my next step validation from OC? Or contest OC TL directly to CRA based on no response from CA?

    Was your C&D a complete C&D, or only written communication allowed?

    C&D requested no phone contact and all future communications be done in writing.

    And is the CRA going to modify the OC TL based on the CA not responding?

    not necessarily. but the CA can't verify w/the CRA until the prove it to you. if they do, it would be considered continued collection activity.

    Does a failed validation by the CA give any leverage in removing the Originating Creditors TL? Or do I need to follow the same process with the OC?

    Thanks

    No
    In most states the OC is not subject to the FDCPA, although there are some exceptions
