1Opinion of the Court

CALABRESI, Circuit Judge:

This case raises the issue of whether the requirements of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 1692-1692o, apply to an attorney’s execution and delivery of the three-day rent demand notice that is required by New York law as a condition precedent to a summary eviction proceeding. Finding that the FDCPA does apply, we affirm the district court’s denial of the defendant’s motion to dismiss the plaintiff’s complaint.
