Cassandra-Like Predictions

Post by David A. Szwak »

One pathetic lender even argued: “The defendants assert that the financing of consumer contracts in New Jersey will end if the consumers are given rights against the financing banks. This horrifying hypothetical has a hollow ring in view of the long history of the FTC Holder Rule and the cases cited above which have upheld and applied it....Further, if the assignees' Cassandra-like prediction comes true, then the executive and legislative branches of government will doubtless remodel the shoes. In the meantime, the court must keep the assignees in the shoes which the assignees freely chose.â€
