LOS ANGELES – A Huntington Park man alleges that a debt collect continued to call after he revoked his consent.

Ronald Valverde filed a complaint on April 3 in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against U.S. Bancorp, doing business as U.S. Bank N.A., alleging violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that beginning in March 2017, the defendant called him in an attempt to collect an alleged debt. He alleges he revoked his consent for the defendant to contact him in March 2017, but the defendant continues to do so.

The plaintiff holds U.S. Bancorp responsible because the defendant allegedly called plaintiff with such frequency to harass, contacted plaintiff without express consent and invaded plaintiff's rights to privacy and seclusion.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment against defendant, award actual damages, statutory damages of $1,000, costs, attorneys’ fees, interest and other relief that the court deems appropriate. He is represented by Brian Brazier of Price Law Group APC in Scottsdale, Arizona.
