Victims of political payback?
May 26, 2009 | Nevada, industry, regulation | Comments (0)Interesting story about Nevada’s payday lenders:
Matthew Callister, the attorney who most recently represented Handy Cash, says his clients, which include other payday lenders, are being scapegoated because of their vocal opposition to legislation limiting payday interest rates and fees that was passed during the 2007 state legislative session. Callister, who recently withdrew as the attorney for the bankrupt Handy Cash, said state Assembly Speaker Barbara Buckley is unfairly singling his clients out because they “spoke out” against a bill she had supported. Buckley, not coincidentally, is the executive director of the legal aid center.
Zealots will use any means to achieve their objective.
