Atwood v. GE Money Bank et al
Remedy for willful stay violation under the Bankruptcy Code does not preclude debtor-plaintiff from also asserting a claim under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) or other state law. However, debtor-plaintiff's claims under the FDCPA and state law did not fall within the Court's "related-to" jurisdiction. ___ B.R. ___, 2011 WL 1331974 (Bankr.D.N.M. Apr. 7, 2011, J. Jacobvitz).
