DEFAULT FINAL JUDGMENT AGAINST DEFENDANT
THIS CAUSE comes before the Court on Plaintiffs Motion for Default Final Judgment
(Dkt. 8). The Court, having reviewed the motion, Plaintiffs complaint, and being otherwise
advised in the premises, concludes that the motion should be granted.
On June 27, 2013, Plaintiff filed his complaint, alleging several acts or omissions of
Defendant in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ("FDCPA") (Dkt. 1). On August
29, 2013, a Clerk's default was entered against Defendant (Dkt. 7). Plaintiff now moves for a
default final judgment. Plaintiff seeks statutory damages in the amount of 51,000.00 under the
FDCPA.
The Court agrees that Plaintiff is entitled to statutory damages in the amount of 51,000.
The complaint alleges with specific details and facts Defendant's numerous willful violations of
the relevant statute. Defendant's failure to appear or defend this action amounts to an admission
of these alleged violations.
It is therefore ORDERED and ADJUDGED that:
1. Plaintiffs Motion for Default Final Judgment (Dkt. 8) is GRANTED.
2. The Clerk is directed to enter Final Judgment in favor of Plaintiff and against
Defendant in the amount of 51,000.00, for all of which let execution issue. This
amount shall accrue post-judgment interest at the statutory rate.
3. The Clerk is directed to close this case and terminate any pending motions as moot.
4. The Court reserves jurisdiction on an award of attorney's fees and costs.
5. Plaintiff shall file any motion for attorney's fees and costs within fourteen (14) days
of this Order.
