Full title: KAREN BEMERO, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, Plaintiff, v. LLOYD & McDaniel, PLC, Defendant.
Court: United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois
Date published: Apr 28, 2023
Facts
Karen Bemero has sued Lloyd & McDaniel PLC on claims arising from a debt collection letter sent by L&M. Bemero alleges that L&M violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act by sending an undated collection letter that she contends was confusing due to the absence of a date. Bemero seeks to represent a class of similarly situated persons. L&M has moved to dismiss Bemero’s claim because she lacks standing under Article III of the Constitution and for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.
