Upbound Group's subsidiary Acima Leasing announced that the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has voluntarily dismissed its lawsuit against the company with prejudice. The lawsuit, filed in 2024 in Utah's District Court, followed a multi-year investigation that began before Upbound's acquisition of Acima in 2021.
The dismissal comes with no financial penalties, required business practice changes, or other relief measures for Acima. In return, Acima agreed to dismiss its own lawsuit against the CFPB filed in Texas, which challenged the bureau's authority to pursue claims against the company.
Acima, a leading lease-to-own solutions provider, had strongly contested the CFPB's allegations, arguing that the investigation represented an illegal attempt to expand beyond federal law limitations and interfere with state-level lease-to-own industry regulations.
