What happened

Erica Cardenas filed a proposed class action against Business Debt Adjusters LLC, apparently alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). The docket indicates that the plaintiff's individual claims were dismissed with prejudice, while claims of any other putative class members were dismissed without prejudice. These are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts, and no settlement is indicated.

Do you qualify?

No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.

How to file

There is no claim to file yet. If this case reaches a settlement, a claim process will open — usually with an official settlement website and a filing deadline.
