StateServe Medical of Florida FCRA Settlement Notes
- Coles v. StateServe Medical of Florida LLC, et al.
- Case No. 8:17-cv-829-EAK-AEP
- Pending in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida
This class action lawsuit accuses StateServ Medical of Florida of violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act or FCRA. Under the FCRA law, employers are mandated to disclose in a separate document that a consumer report or background check may be obtained.
Specifically, the complaint alleges that StateServ did not make a “clear and conspicuous” disclosure in writing that a consumer report would be obtained for employment purposes, in a document that consisted solely of the disclosure.
StateServ maintains that its procedures did not violate the FCRA. You can view the entire agreement on the StateServ FCRA settlement website.
Class members who wish to exclude themselves or object to the settlements must do so by December 18, 2018. No action is required for Class Members who wish to participate in the StateServe settlement.
