Sept. 26, 2024 — Maurice Wutscher attorney Donald Maurice will discuss the Uniform Law Commission’s Uniform Consumer Debt Default Judgments Act at the annual conference of the North American Collection Agency Regulatory Association on Oct. 2 in Sacramento.

Adopted by the Uniform Law Commission in July, the Act would materially modify existing procedures for obtaining default judgments on many types of consumer debt, including new notice requirements and the inclusion of certain documents and data in judgment applications. On Feb. 13, a bill was introduced in Colorado that would adopt the Act, and it is anticipated several states will follow.
