Re: fdcpa and ucmj disclosing debt info to comanding officer
Ordinarily such a disclosure is a violation. I am not familiar with the cmj and its interplay with the fdcpa. My guess is that proceeding on the violation would be positive. Have you discussed this matter with your base judge advocates office?
I do not provide research services.
