Absolutely - I agree with you completely. My only point was that I would not
want the final court outcome to be considered definitive as to the quality
of my work - I do good work, and whether my guy wins in court (or not) is
not indicative of what I did on his behalf.
I can't really address the nature or quality of the training one gets with
this franchise operation, because I don't have any express information about
it. There would seem to be some inherent problems with it, but I don't know
that that is the reality of their business. Not enough info.

I have a case where a collector is telling a business that the business
cannot dispute a debt under any Federal or State Law.  Here is the actual
statement made by the collector. "I must advise you under no state or
federal law can you at anytime dispute a commercial debt."

He also told the man that collectors can call a business anytime without
having to obey a "Cease and Desist" order.

Is any or all of this correct?

If it is true, I am getting ready to tell a lot of businesses they owe me
big money and they cannot dispute my claim.  I was wondering if I would ever
get rich.

With best regards, I remain...

Very truly yours,

CAVEAT: I am not an attorney and am giving a personal opinion that is not meant
to serve or be taken as legal advice. If you want legal advice, consult an
attorney in your jurisdiction.
With that said, on with my two cents worth. . .

> I have a case where a collector is telling a business that the business
> cannot dispute a debt under any Federal or State Law.  Here is the actual
> statement made by the collector. "I must advise you under no state or
> federal law can you at anytime dispute a commercial debt."
>

Hah! And Double Hah! The courts are full of lawsuits on a daily basis wherein
one party or the other disputes the nature or fact of the debt.

> He also told the man that collectors can call a business anytime without
> having to obey a "Cease and Desist" order.

I would most certainly imagine that the judge who issued that order would be
very interested in knowing that the collector was willfully and knowingly
disobeying it. I am not a psychic, but were the judge to find out, I see a "show
cause order" in the collectors near future. Never heard of a bill collector more
powerful than a judge.


> Is any or all of this correct?

I don't know about OK, but in my contracts law class it surely isn't.
Again, I'm not an attorney, but the collector sounds waaay out of line. Have
your client call the Attorney General's Office and inquire as to the Oklahoma
law concerning this sort of behavior.

I used to live and work in Billings, Mt.  If you can't find anyone else, there
should be an Equifax office there, whose reps could easily do this for you.  You
could also try insurance adjusters.  I have done this numerous times for

Does anyone know of a resource that addresses wiretapping statutes in
the 50 states and U.S. territories, or has anyone recently prepared
such a report for a client?  Specifically, I need to know the laws in
each state as they pertain to a private investigator conducting
surveillance using covert video (both with or without an audio
track).

If anyone has been down this road before and can point me in the
right direction or is interested in compiling a comprehensive report

       DEADLY INFORMATION
       Court Says Information Brokers Can Be Held Liable for Foreseeable Harm

       BY MOLLY McDONOUGH

       Amy Lynn Boyer hardly knew Liam Youens. They met in an eighth-grade youth
group but didn’t become friends. In 10th grade they shared a class, and he
became obsessed with her. After high school, Youens paid more than $200 to an
Internet company for information about her, including her Social Security number
and work address. In October 1999, Youens waited for 20-year-old Boyer after
work. He fatally shot her, and then Youens, 21, committed suicide.

       Boyer’s mother, Helen Remsburg of Nashua, New Hampshire, sued the
Florida-based company that sold Boyer’s personal information to her killer.
Remsburg won a major victory this month when the state supreme court ruled that
information brokers and private investigators who provide information to
stalkers and identity thieves can be held liable for their actions.

       "This decision really says there has to be some responsibility in handling
personal information," says Chris Hoofnagle, senior counsel at the Washington,
D.C.-based Electronic Privacy Information Center, which wrote an amicus brief in
the case.

       Remsburg claims Docusearch Inc. violated Boyer’s privacy. She is seeking a
jury trial. But Docusearch, which works primarily for commercial clients,
including law firms, argues it provided only public information. The company
asked U.S. District Judge Paul Barbadoro to dismiss the suit on a proximate
cause claim, because Youens already had Boyer’s home address when he contacted
Docusearch for more information.

       Barbadoro passed the case to the New Hampshire Supreme Court to clarify
state law on five points. On Feb. 18, the court issued an opinion siding with
Remsburg on three of the five points. Boyer v. Docusearch Inc., No. 2002-255.

       The court found first that private investigators and information brokers
are obligated to those about whom they provide information if there is
foreseeable harm, as in cases of stalking and identity theft.

       The court also found there is a reasonable expectation of privacy
regarding Social Security numbers, but that work addresses are public.

       The court said it is a fact question, though, whether revealing a Social
Security number is "offensive to a person of ordinary sensibilities" so as to
support the tort of intrusion upon seclusion.

       The court recognized a cause of action for invasion of privacy by
appropriation of a person’s name or likeness, but did not find appropriation in
this case. Docusearch obtained Boyer’s Social Security number from a
credit-reporting agency without her permission, but only sold it to Youens for
the value of the information. Appropriation requires proof of taking advantage
of someone’s reputation or prestige, the court said. It occurs most often when a
defendant uses a person’s name or likeness to advertise a product or when the
defendant impersonates a person for gain.

       Finally, the court found that pretextual calls used to obtain and sell
information violate the state’s consumer protection laws. Docusearch had hired
an investigator, Michelle Gambino, who called and lied to Boyer to get her work
address. Docusearch had argued pretext was a legitimate investigative tool.

       Gambino's New York City attorney Steve Ross says his client is happy the
court dismissed two of the counts that could have negatively impacted Gambino:
commercial appropriation and intrusion upon seclusion. As for the issue of
pretext, Ross says that as a matter of law Miss Gambino could not have foreseen
the danger that faced Boyer. "We don't believe under the remaining counts that
she is liable in any way," Ross says.

       Bedford lawyer Andrew Schulman, who represents Docusearch and other
defendants, declined comment.

       Youens created a Web site to keep meticulous logs of his plans to murder
Boyer and possibly her family. He also posted his efforts to locate additional
information about Boyer.

       "I found an internet site to do that, and to my surprize everything else
under the Sun. Most importantly: her current employment. It’s accually obsene
what you can find out about a person on the internet [sic]," Youens writes on
his Web site, which Boyer’s family has maintained at www.amyboyer.org as part of
a memorial and a call to action to fight similar violence.

       Youens praises Docusearch on the site for pulling through "amazingly. ...
It’s like a dream."

       The New Hampshire court found that stalking and identity theft are
foreseeable risks that warrant a duty by investigators "to exercise reasonable
care in disclosing" information to a client, especially when "the investigator
does not know the client or the client’s purpose in seeking the information."

       Private investigators, who filed their own amicus brief in the case, are
not as upset by the ruling as some expected. Most of a private investigator’s
business wouldn’t fall into actionable categories.

       "The decision didn’t say anything that our professional association
doesn’t already hold true and dear," says John M. Healy, president of the New
Hampshire League of Investigators. Healy, however, is concerned with how the
decision will be seen and used by the public to promulgate more restrictive
laws. He points out that if private investigators lose the ability to work
effectively, then the legal, insurance and business communities also will
suffer.

       "There has to be a balancing act in terms of access to information," says
Healy, who adds that 90 percent of his business comes from law firms. "We need
privacy, but we have to make sure we don’t throw out the baby with the
bathwater."

       Healy also distinguished between regulated investigative work and
reselling information. He says legitimate investigators ordinarily wouldn’t
disclose a person’s whereabouts to a client. "It’s legal to do it, but [to me]
that’s overstepping the bounds of propriety." Healy says the industry standard
is to give the found person the choice to contact the client.
