Opinion Notes:
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER: The court previously ruled on many aspects of the motion for summary judgment filed by ICS. (Docs. 57, 58). The court reserved ruling on the limited issue of whether the information in dispute i.e., whether Ms. Dorsey owed money to AT&T, is objectively and readily verifiable in the light of the Eleventh Circuit's intervening decision in Holden v. Holiday Inn Club Vacations Inc., 98 F.4th 1359, 1369 (11th Cir. 2024). (Doc. 57 at 1314, 20) (quotation marks omitted). Because Ms. Dorsey has identified alleged inaccuracies in ICS's credit reporting that were objectively and readily verifiable, the court DENIES the remaining part of ICS's motion as to Ms. Dorsey's FCRA claim. As a result, ICS's communication is not protected as amatter of law (see doc. 57 at 1920), so the court DENIES the remaining part of ICS's motion as to Ms. Dorsey's FDCPA claim as well. Signed by Judge Annemarie Carney Axon on 7/9/2024. (CLC)
