v. United States, 399 F.3d 1057, 1060 (9th Cir. 2005), and we affirm.
Summary judgment was properly granted for defendant because Grismore
failed to raise a triable issue as to whether, among other things, defendant (1) made
any false statements in connection with its attempts to collect the debt; (2) reported
false information to the credit reporting agencies; or (3) continued its collection
activity before verifying the debt after Grismore disputed it. See 15 U.S.C.
§§ 1692e, 1692f, 1692g, 1681s-2(b); Donohue, 592 F.3d at 1033-34 (false
statements that are immaterial are not actionable under sections 1692e or 1692f).
Grismore’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
