The purpose of this rule is to ensure a uniform understanding and practice within the debt collection industry regarding what information is required to be provided to consumers when a debt that the debt collector, acting in the regular course of his or her trade or commerce, is attempting to collect is unenforceable in judicial proceedings due to the running of the applicable statute of limitation. The implementation of the notices required in this rule will obviate an industry-wide practice that tends to or does mislead or deceive by failing to provide material information to consumers. NMSA 1978, Section 57-12-2(D)(14).
