(Reuters) - The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) on Tuesday scored a jurisdictional victory when a federal judge in Texas transferred to another court in Washington, D.C., an industry-backed lawsuit challenging the agency's rule capping credit card late fees at $8.
On Friday May 24, in response to the CFPB’s motion requesting the Fifth Circuit to accelerate the issuance of its mandate from July 9, 2024 with respect to its earlier dismissal of the plaintiffs’ appeal, the Fifth Circuit ordered that the mandate be issued “forthwith.” This restores full jurisdiction to the Federal District Court (Judge Pittman).

The Electronic Fund Transfer Act provides important protections when consumers suffer unauthorized withdrawals from their accounts.

As the name suggests, the Electronic Fund Transfer Act applies to transfers initiated electronically, such as through a computer or mobile device.
ACA International renewed its advocacy in opposition to the Federal Trade Commission’s rule that would ban employers’ noncompete agreements by joining hundreds of national and state associations in a request to delay the action.
