Having read the FCRA and the FDCPA I cannot find inference of estopple. Now, I understand the concept of C & D. It is much like a do not trespass. It is rooted in the belief that we have a right to privacy in our homes, i.e. the "sanctity of home". SO, home is a place where we should have sanctuary from the world. This idea extends to the work place as well. We should be able to be harrassment free in our places of work... So, what the heck is this business about estoplle? Was the Eckerhart (I probably spelled that wrong) case out of Mo. in the federal courts...or was it a state action? If it was in the state's courts...I hardly think it would be binding or set a precedent for Alaska or South Carolina.
Hey Smittie, Try this. http://consumers.creditnet.com/stra...read.php?s=&threadid=51823&highlight=estoppel .
I would agree with you. I've never used the concept, I use my state's laws (TX) in conjunction with the FDCPA with great luck, so I've never needed it. (And it never made sense either! LOL)
