Necessary To Effect A Judicial Remedy After Judgment
Except as provided in Section 804, which covers "locating" consumers, without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector, or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, or as reasonably necessary to effectuate a postjudgment judicial remedy, a debt collector may not communicate, in connection with the collection of any debt, with any person other than the consumer, his attorney, a consumer reporting agency if otherwise permitted by law, the creditor, the attorney of the creditor, or the attorney of the debt collector. See Section 805 (b) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act reproduced here for illustration purposes only.
Necessary For Execution or Enforcement of The Remedy
A portion the FTC Official Staff Commentary for the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, reproduced here for illustration purposes only, includes the following: "The words "as reasonably necessary to effectuate a postjudgment judicial remedy" mean a communication necessary for execution or enforcement of the remedy. A debt collector may not send a copy of the judgment to an employer, except as part of a formal service of papers to achieve a garnishment or other remedy."
