When Facebook was decided I predicted that 90 percent of courts would determine that the TCPA did not apply to callers attempting to reach non-randomly produced phone numbers. I’ve also…

So it has been an incredibly busy week for me TCPAWorld. I apologize for the rather sparse content. I promise to do better next week. :) Contact.io was absolutely splendid,…

So real quick on this, there's a sort of under-the-radar battle out there in TCPAWorld as to whether a caller can be hauled into a court in a far away…

So the Palooza was widely regarded as the conference with the greatest content seen on stage--possibly ever. But I have to admit the level of quality at contact.io has been…

So those of you that missed the big MBA Regulatory Issues summit in DC this weekend went without my latest content, but I put together a really critical slide that…

The Czar first broke the bad news hot off the press earlier today: the much-anticipated Lindenbaum v. Realgy, LLC appeal ended in a dud. Yep, the Sixth Circuit just put…

Free speech just died a bit more. The critical decision in Lindenbaum is out. You can read it here:  Lindenbaum The district court is reversed. Creasy is rejected. The TCPA can be enforced during…

You start a business. You create an LLC. That's supposed to protect you from personal liability for the activities of your business, right? Not when it comes to the TCPA.…

I love love love love TCPAWorld. It is the weirdest funnest place. And whereas I lovingly started this blog to cover legal developments to help other defense lawyers be better…

So... How's everyone doing today? Great? That's good to hear. If this line of code exists in your dialing source code, go ahead and delete it: Not saying it has…

As readers of this blog know, I like to keep things nice and segmented. Rigid. Black and white. After all, there is always truth on the one hand, and madness…

TCPAWorld previously reported on the Petition For Declaratory Ruling filed with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on July 2, 2021 by Perdue for Senate, Inc. (Perdue) https://tcpaworld.com/2021/07/07/perdue-campaign-to-fcc-declare-that-certain-ringless-voice-mails-are-not-calls-under-the-tcpa/. Perdue’s Petition requests…

Live Vox' GC Mark Mallah provided these comments today to TCPAWorld.com in response to the Kuch decision I just discussed. These are his opinions and assertions: The magistrate judge properly acknowledged that…

Editor's Note: Live Vox' GC comments on this are here.  This might be the oddest ATDS case I've seen yet. No, I'm serious. Let's start with this. Imagine a post-Facebook…

USAA is crushing it. And Aspect is on a roll. The duo already combined for what was one of the best ATDS decision to date in Timms, but their latest…

Editor's Note: Just my opinion. But when have I ever been wrong? Plus this is common sense. So a couple of hacks apparently bought lists of phone numbers belonging to…

No matter how seemingly niche the potential market, sellers seek to take advantage of promotional texting. Blades Direct, LLC (“Blades”), described as a “diamond tools supplier that carries a broad…

Look, we all knew this was going to be a seesaw affair. We've seen a run of good TCPA ATDS decisions recently, so we were bound to get a stinker…

This may be the most interesting story I've ever had the opportunity to cover on TCPAWorld.com, if only because the stakes appear so high. So the other day the Marcioness--isn't…

Editor's Note: Here's that really big picture of my head you've been wanting. So real quick, I sat down with Jason Cutter of Cutter Consulting Group a couple weeks back…

Well TCPAWorld has a new settlement king. For many years the old In re Capital One settlement reigned supreme as the biggest TCPA settlement of all time at $75.5MM. But…

Editor's Note: This seemed like it would be amusing so I agreed to run it. In the end I think it just became too long (and kind of boring) because…

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted and then released (on August 24, 2021) a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (“NALF”) in the amount of “$5,134,500 against John M.…

As I've reminded folks a few times recently, the TCPA is the single largest cashcow in American history for the Plaintiff's bar. More multi-million dollar settlements have been reached under…

Well the flood of Florida Mini TCPA suits continues. Last week two California based companies found themselves embroiled in mini-TCPA litigation. First, the folks over at Prospect Home Finance--a mortgage…

As the Czar previously reported, after the DO NOT Call Act of 2021 debuted in the U.S. Senate (S. 1913), two bipartisan members of the House of Representatives introduced an…

Wow. Just wow. So look, I had Jeff Lohman on my podcast long ago. He seemed a decent guy. I didn't know him then, and I don't know him now,…

Editor's Note: The Verdict is In! Well it looks like Navient pulled it off! We're waiting for confirmation here, including the full verdict and findings but we're informed that Navient has…

I’m not sure how its possible but the Squire Patton Boggs TCPA team keeps getting more and more powerful. While other firms scrape to find talent we’ve just made ANOTHER…
