[FR Doc. 2011–18956 Filed 7–26–11; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6210–01–P FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION Statement of Policy Regarding Communications in Connection With the Collection of Decedents’ Debts Federal Trade Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’). ACTION: Policy statement. AGENCY: Pursuant to the FTC’s authority to enforce the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (‘‘FDCPA’’), 15 U.S.C. 1692l(a), and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (‘‘FTC Act’’), 15 U.S.C. 45, the Commission issues this final Statement of Policy Regarding Communications in Connection with the Collection of Decedents’ Debts (‘‘Statement’’).1 When a person dies, creditors and the debt collectors they hire usually have the right to collect on the person’s debts from the assets of his or her estate. Sections 805(b) and (d) of the FDCPA prohibit debt collectors from contacting individuals other than the debtor to collect a debt, unless the individual is the debtor’s spouse, parent (if the debtor is a minor), guardian, executor, or administrator. The Commission has learned that, to recover on a decedent’s debts, some debt collectors contact the decedent’s relatives, although these relatives may have no authority to pay the debts from the decedent’s estate and no legal obligation to pay the debts from their own assets. By contacting persons who are not specified in Section 805 of the FDCPA, and by engaging in practices that may deceive those persons about their obligations, these debt collectors may be violating the FDCPA. The Commission recognizes, however, that imposing unnecessary restrictions on a debt collector’s ability to collect a decedent’s debt from the person authorized to pay those debts SUMMARY: 1 An enforcement policy statement describes the Commission’s future enforcement plans, goals, and objectives with respect to a particular industry or practice. Enforcement policy statements do not have the force or effect of law, but they may reflect the Commission’s interpretation of a legal requirement. PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 44915 may instead cause some debt collectors to seek to recover by invoking the probate process, imposing substantial costs on the estate and delaying the distribution of assets to heirs and beneficiaries. To balance these interests and protect consumers from unfair, deceptive, and abusive practices, this Statement announces that the FTC will forebear from enforcing Section 805(b) of the FDCPA, 15 U.S.C. 1692c(b), against a debt collector for communicating about a decedent’s debts with persons specifically identified as appropriate to contact under Section 805 of the FDCPA (e.g., spouse, parent, guardian, executor, or administrator) or any other person who has the authority to pay the decedent’s debts from the assets of the decedent’s estate. The Statement also clarifies how a debt collector can comply with the law in locating the person who has the requisite authority with whom to discuss the decedent’s debts. Finally, the Statement explains how a debt collector can avoid engaging in deceptive practices in communicating with a third party about a decedent’s debts. DATES: This final statement of policy is effective on August 29, 2011. ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of this Statement should be sent to: Public Reference Branch, Federal Trade Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Room 130, Washington, DC 20580. The complete record of this proceeding is also available at that address. Relevant portions of the proceeding, including the final Statement, are available at (https://www.ftc.gov). FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher Koegel or Quisaira Whitney, Attorneys, Division of Financial Practices, Federal Trade Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20580, (202) 326– 3224. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. The Proposed Policy Statement and Public Comments Received On October 8, 2010, the Commission published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed statement of enforcement policy regarding communications in connection with the collection of decedents’ debts (‘‘proposed Statement’’).2 The proposed Statement addressed three issues under the FDCPA pertaining to debt collectors who attempt to collect on the debts of deceased persons: (1) With whom a debt collector may lawfully discuss a decedent’s debt consistent with the 2 75 E:\FR\FM\27JYN1.SGM FR 62,389 (Oct. 8, 2010). 27JYN1
