A federal appeals court has decertified a class action brought under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act after finding that the lead plaintiff had no claims that were common or typical to the class.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled Wednesday that a district judge should not have certified a Texas class of 7,650 customers of Seton Medical Center Hays who received letters from a debt collection services provider. The panel, two of whom are appointees of President Donald Trump, found there were too many variances in how Seton’s customers might have interpreted the letter to establish a common issue, as required under the federal Rule 23 of Civil Procedure.
