Webinar Recap: Facebook: 1 Year Later

Last week we held a webinar, Facebook: 1 Year Later, in which our guests, Eric J. Troutman from TCPAWorld and Squire Patton Boggs and Aaron S. Weiss from Carlton Fields, discussed the implications of the Supreme Court’s decision in Facebook v. Duguid on its first anniversary. Led by Contact Center Compliance’s Director of Compliance Services, Arvell Craig, our panel went through the background of the case and thoroughly dissected how the ruling has been interpreted in lower court decisions over the past year.

Today is the 30 year anniversary of President George H.W. Bush signing the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) into law. It is fitting that this anniversary is somewhat overlooked as, for the first two decades of its existence, the TCPA served its intended, modest purpose as a statute allowing individual consumers to bring lawsuits in small claims court.

District Court Rules that Predictive Dialer is Not an ATDS

A District Court in South Carolina has issued a ruling in a Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) lawsuit that addresses one of the most important uncertainties in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision in Facebook v. Duguid. At issue is whether or not predictive dialers fit within the narrow definition of an automatic telephone dialing system (ATDS) that SCOTUS adopted in its momentous decision two months ago.
