On July 13, 2012, the report of the Magistrate Judge was entered containing proposed findings of fact and recommendations that Defendant Creditwatch Services, Ltd.'s Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. 18) be GRANTED in part as to Tex. Fin. Code Section 392.304(a)(4) and DENIED as to the remainder of Plaintiff's claims and that Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. 61) be GRANTED in part as to Plaintiff's claims under 15 U.S.C. §§ 1692d(6) and 1692e(11) and for violation of Tex.

The court hereby adopts the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge as the findings and conclusions of this court.
