This database shows every all-time Fair Credit Reporting Act verdict that our research has found, dating to the law’s enactment in 1970. Also included are non-confidential settlements, accepted offers of judgments, default judgments, and arbitration awards in FCRA cases. The list includes but is not limited to cases brought by the Goolsby Law Office, LLC. Many FCRA cases are settled confidentially, so this is only a fraction of all FCRA cases that have been brought.

TU 246 F.3d 359 5th Cir. 1998 Verdict Identity Theft Consumer Reporting Agency TransUnion 50,000.00 4,470,000.00 4,520,000.00 judgment for Defendant on appeal Appeal was decided under "knowing & intentional" willfulness standard, since abrogated by SCOTUS in Safeco; also, 5th Cir. said, "Although Cousin's complaint and the pre-trial order averred general claims of negligent and willful violations of the FCRA, neither specifically stated 1681i nor did the jury instructions present a claim for violating 1681i. Because the record does not establish that a 1681i claim was ever presented to the jury, we focus solely on the claims seeking redress for noncompliance with 1681e(b)."
