Sherer v. Green Tree Servicing LLC
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided November 10, 2008No. 07-60567PublishedCited by 149 opinions
1Per curiam
Green Tree Servicing LLC appeals the district court’s denial of a motion to compel the arbitration of Stephen Sherer’s Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act claims. Scherer is a party to a loan agreement that underlies his statutory claims. Green Tree Servicing LLC is not a party to that loan agreement. Nevertheless, the broad language of that agreement’s arbitration clause requires arbitration in this case. For the following reasons, we reverse the district court’s order and remand for entry of an order compelling arbitration.
