OPINION AND ORDER Plaintiff Hattie Worley brings this action against the law firm Simon Meyrowitz & Meyrowitz, P.C. (“Meyrowitz”) in connection with its attempts to collect against a default judgment entered against her in New York State court. In her operative Complaint, Worley alleges that Meyrowitz, acting on behalf of its client, the New York City Housing Authority (“NYCHA”), improperly attempted to collect, and did in fact collect, what it knew to be an unlawful debt stemming from that judgment, in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (the “FDCPA”), 15 U.S.C. §1692 et seq.; New York General Business Law §349; and New York Judiciary Law §487. Meyrowitz now moves, pursuant to Rule 12(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, for judgment on the pleadings, arguing that all of Worley’s claims should be dismissed. For the reasons that follow, the Court agrees and Meyrowtiz’s motion is granted. BACKGROUND The following facts, taken from the operative Complaint, documents it incorporates by reference, and matters of which the Court may take judicial notice (including filings in the underlying New York State court litigation), are construed in the light most favorable to Worley. See, e.g., Empire Merchs., LLC v. Reliable Churchill LLLP, 902 F.3d 132, 139 (2d Cir. 2018); Kleinman v. Elan Corp., PLC, 706 F.3d 145, 152 (2d Cir. 2013). On June 4, 2019, a New York County Civil Court entered a default judgment against Worley for $9,816.08 after she was sued by NYCHA — her former landlord — for failure to pay rent. ECF Nos. 44-3; 44-4; see ECF No. 35 (“FAC”),
7-8. Worley claims that she first learned of the judgment around two years later, after which, in late March and early April of 2021, she communicated with NYCHA and Meyrowitz to clarify the debt and attempt to resolve it. FAC 10; see ECF No. 44-6.1 On April 2, 2021, Meyrowtiz responded to Worley by email to inform her that the outstanding balance of her debt was $3,452.66 (the “April 2, 2021 Email”).
