Open questions
  • What separates an 'unfair' or 'unconscionable' scraping practice from a 'deceptive' one under C.R.S. section 6-1-105(1)(rrr)?
  • Does 'knowingly or recklessly' in C.R.S. section 6-1-105(1)(rrr) require that a collector knew its scraping was unfair or deceptive, or only that it knew the facts that made it so?

What it makes you log

Logging duty
