House Study Bill 14

Bill Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 537.2502, subsections 3 and 6, Code
  1  2 2001, are amended to read as follows:
  1  3    3.  A delinquency charge shall not be collected under
  1  4 subsection 1, paragraph "a", on an installment which that is
  1  5 paid in full within ten days after its scheduled or deferred
  1  6 installment due date even though an earlier maturing
  1  7 installment or a delinquency or deferral charge on an earlier
  1  8 installment may not have been paid in full.  For purposes of
  1  9 this subsection, payments associated with a precomputed are
  1 10 applied first to current installments and then to delinquent
  1 11 installments.
  1 12    6.  A delinquency charge shall not be collected under
  1 13 subsection 4 on a payment which associated with a precomputed
  1 14 transaction that is paid in full on or before its scheduled or
  1 15 deferred due date even though an earlier maturing payment or a
  1 16 delinquency or deferred charge on an earlier payment has not
  1 17 been paid in full.  For purposes of this subsection, payments
  1 18 associated with a precomputed transaction are applied first to
  1 19 amounts due for the current billing cycle and then to
  1 20 delinquent payments.  
  1 21                           EXPLANATION
  1 22    This bill provides that, with respect to a consumer credit
  1 23 transaction that is not pursuant to an open-end credit
  1 24 arrangement, and other than a consumer lease or consumer
  1 25 rental agreement, a delinquency charge on a current paid-in-
  1 26 full installment associated with a precomputed transaction
  1 27 shall not be collected, even if a delinquency on an earlier
  1 28 installment exists.  By limiting the provision's applicability
  1 29 to precomputed transactions, the bill allows a delinquency
  1 30 charge to be collected on an installment not part of a
  1 31 precomputed transaction, where the current installment due is
  1 32 paid in full within 10 days after its scheduled or deferred
  1 33 installment due date but an earlier maturing installment or a
  1 34 delinquency or deferral charge on an earlier installment has
  1 35 not been paid in full.  The bill, with respect to such
  2  1 transactions, eliminates the requirement that payments be
  2  2 applied first to a current installment and then to delinquent
  2  3 amounts.
  2  4    The bill likewise provides that with respect to delinquency
  2  5 charges related to an open-end credit transaction, a
  2  6 delinquency charge may be collected on a payment associated
  2  7 with a transaction other than a precomputed transaction where
  2  8 the current payment due is paid in full on or before its
  2  9 scheduled or deferred due date but where an earlier maturing
  2 10 payment or a delinquency or deferred charge on an earlier
  2 11 payment has not been paid in full.  The bill, with respect to
  2 12 such transactions, eliminates the requirement that payments be
  2 13 applied first to a current payment and then to delinquent
  2 14 amounts.
