On November 10, 2016, the Commissioner issued an Order of Summary Suspension, Temporary Order to Cease and Desist, Notice of Intent to Issue Order to Cease and Desist, Notice of Intent Not to Renew Consumer Collection Agency License, Notice of Intent to Impose Civil Penalty and Notice of Right to Hearing (“Order and Notice”) In the Matter of:  M.A.D. Collection Agency, LLC a/k/a Global Recovery Team d/b/a Goldstein & Dun Associates (NML# 1414547) (“Respondent”).  The Order and Notice was the result of an investigation by the Consumer Credit Division.  The Commissioner alleges that Respondent, among other things, violated Sections 36a-17(d), 36a-811(a) and 36a-811 of the Connecticut General Statutes, Section 36a-801(a) of the 2016 Supplement to the General Statutes and Section 36a 801(a) of the 2016 Supplement to the General Statutes, as amended by Public Act 16-65, Sections 36a-801(e) and 36a-801(i) of the 2016 Supplement to the General Statutes and Sections 36a-809-9(a) and 36a-809-11(11) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies.  The Commissioner found that public safety and welfare imperatively required emergency action to summarily suspend Respondent’s license to acts as a consumer collection agency in Connecticut and to issue a temporary order requiring Respondent to immediately cease and desist from violating the laws cited within the Order and Notice.  Respondent was afforded an opportunity to request a hearing on the allegations set forth in the Order and Notice.
