Rent-A-Center, Washington AG reach agreement, avoid trial on collections case
Rent-A-Center and the Washington State Attorney General’s office late last week, reached an agreement on a case that was headed to trial March 23.
The Washington AG’s Consumer Protection Division filed claims against Rent-A-Center in July 2009 asking King County Superior Court to declare Rent-A-Center’s collection practices and rental contracts in violation of the state’s Consumer Protection Act and Lease-Purchase Agreements Act.
Rent-A-Center consistently denied the allegations.
