PACE Files Challenge to FCC's TCPA Order

The Professional Association for Customer Engagement filed the opening brief in its appeal (see 1507200058) of the FCC recent order (see 1507130039) interpreting the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in docket 15-1211, said a Monday news release from PACE. The FCC misinterpreted the law and concluded it applies to a broad array of common, beneficial dialing equipment, the brief said. In the brief, PACE, along with nine other businesses and associations, asked the D.C. Circuit to set aside these "unlawful aspects" of the commission's order.
