Case Name

Clark v. First Resolution Investment Corp., et al.,
Case No. 15-1013-BLS2

Superior Court for Suffolk County, Massachusetts

Case Summary

The class action lawsuit asserts that First Resolution Investment Corp. (FRIC) collected and attempted to collect defaulted consumer debts in Massachusetts without being licensed as a debt collector by the Massachusetts Division of Banks. It also asserts that FRIC filed collection lawsuits and other proceedings without being registered as a foreign corporation with the Massachusetts Secretary of State. A “consumer debt” is a debt incurred primarily for personal, household, or family purposes. FRIC disputes the claims and maintains it did nothing wrong, and the Settlement does not establish otherwise.
