Minnesota COA Affirms TRO against Western Sky; Rejects Immunity Defense
Here is the opinion in State ex rel. Swanson v. CashCall Inc.:
An excerpt:
Respondent State of Minnesota brought a consumer-enforcement action against appellants CashCall, Inc., and WS Funding, LLC, in July 2013, alleging that appellants are using a third company, Western Sky Financial, LLC, as a front to make usurious loans to Minnesota consumers. The state moved for a temporary injunction, and appellants moved to dismiss the state’s complaint pursuant to Minnesota Rule of Civil Procedure 12.02(e). The district court granted the temporary injunction and denied the dismissal motion. Appellants challenged both rulings in these consolidated appeals. Because the district court did not err by denying the dismissal motion and did not abuse its discretion by granting the temporary injunction, we affirm.
