| United Recovery and Remarketing, LLCsource ↗ filed by Law Office of Marques J. Carter · Judge William M. Ray II · No. 4:26-cv-00302 · 15:1692 Fair Debt Collection Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $2.40M–$100M ▾Comparable FCRA/FDCPA rulings split sharply: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage dismissed several FCRA furnisher claims for lack of private right of action, while Askins v. CRST and Wright v. Portfolio Recovery show disclosure/attachment-based claims surviving or being revived on appeal. Outcome likely turns on which specific FCRA/FDCPA provision is pled and whether procedural defects (service, standing) arise as in Long v. Transworld. Comparable settlements $2.40M–$100M median $5.85M · n=10 Equifax $100M · Equifax Informatio $30M · Equifax $30M Per member (realized): ~$250 median · $25–$500 (n=5) Comparable verdict: TransUnion $60M · TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital, Inc. — shows courts readily dismiss FCRA furnisher claims lacking private right of action, a likely defense for a remarketing/recovery company. Main risk: Dismissal for lack of private right of action or insufficient pleading, as in Minano and Soul v. Christiansen. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $5K–$1M Small comparable sample, defendant size and claim specifics unclear; estimate highly sensitive to whether suit is individual or class-based. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 2 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | N.D.
