A researcher is analyzing a problem involving the collection of a debt in state X. The following authority has been located concerning the problem: Restatements of the Law defining sales, credit, and debt collection related to the problem. A treatise reference that directly addresses the issues in the case. State O’s Fair Debt Collection Act State X’s Consumer Credit Act Kelly v. Motor Repo—a decision of the highest court in state X Cloud v. Express Loans Inc.—a decision of the highest court in state O Right v. Wrong—a decision of an intermediary court of appeals in state X Left v. The Right Inc. —a decision of a trial court in state X State O’s Uniform Commercial Code Act A federal statute— Fair Debt Collection Act Sarah v. Rapid Loans Co.—a federal case involving the Federal Fair Debt Collection Act Regulations adopted by state X’s Corporation Commission that apply to sales, credit, and debt collection. Assume that all the cases are on point, that is, they are sufficiently similar to the facts and issues involved in the problem to apply as precedent. Questions: Which authority is primary authority, and which is secondary authority? Which authority can be mandatory authority? Why? What would be required for any of the sources to be mandatory authority? Which authority can be persuasive authority? Why? Assuming that all the primary authority applies to the issues raised by the facts of the client’s case, list the authority in the hierarchical order of its value as precedent; that is, authority with greatest authoritative value will be listed first, followed by other authority in the order it will be looked to by the court. (If stuck ranking two authorities give a reasoning why for partial credit)
