We are pleased to present our latest Monthly TCPA Digest, providing
insights and news related to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act
(TCPA). In this issue's Regulatory Update, we cover a proposed
Declaratory Ruling circulated by FCC Chairwoman Rosenworcel that would
require callers to obtain consent from consumers before delivering
"ringless voicemail" messages directly to their voicemail
mailboxes. We also discuss the FCC Enforcement Bureau's
cease-and-desist letters to Great Choice Telecom and TCA Voip,
resulting from their alleged transmission of illegal robocalls.

In our Litigation Update, we look at what constitutes a "voice"
post-Facebook. While some plaintiffs have argued that a text message
can be considered a "voice" under TCPA and may thus constitute a TCPA violation, a district judge in the Central District of California
recently concluded that the argument defies common sense.
