OPINION
MILLS, District Judge:
Plaintiff moves for class certification to secure both injunctive relief and monetary damages.
The result is a mixed bag: We deny on the former, we certify on the latter.
This action arises under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), 15 U.S. C. § 1692, and the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (CFDBPA), Ill.Rev.Stat. ch. 12U/2, 11262. The complaint is based on Defendant’s alleged practice of filing debt collection proceedings in Macoupin County, Illinois, regardless of where the consumer resides or where the cause of action arose.
