NY Collection Law Firm Calls For Merging Dueling CFPB Suits
A New York debt collection law firm battling a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigation said Tuesday it wants to consolidate and pause their dueling court fights, telling a federal judge that the cases overlap too much to proceed separately and should wait for the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on the CFPB’s constitutionality.
In a premotion letter, the Law Offices of Crystal Moroney PC outlined plans to ask U.S. District Judge Kenneth M. Karas to combine its suit, which accuses the CFPB of a “lawless investigatory rampage,” with the agency’s latest attempt to enforce an administrative subpoena against the New City, New York-based firm.
