Palisades Collection Company sues a man and loses lawsuit on Appeal!

An appeals court in New Jersey has overturned a $17,500 judgment against a debtor because the collection law firm that originally won the case admitted a page from the Web site Wikipedia into evidence.

A panel of appellate judges in the Superior Court of New Jersey – Appellate Division said in their opinion dated April 17 that Wikipedia is a “malleable source of information” and that it is “inherently unreliable.”

The case involved a debt collection action brought on behalf of debt purchaser Palisades Collection, LLC against Steven Graubard. Palisades’ legal representation claimed that Graubard owed $30,500 on a credit card account he opened in 1999 with Chevy Chase Bank. After a series of bank mergers, the account ended up with JP Morgan, who sold it to Palisades.
