Orbcomm-Sought Stay 'Beyond Frivolous,' Swarm Says

Orbcomm's requested stay of an FCC International Bureau letter involving Swarm (see 2104120063) is "an obvious delay tactic [and] beyond frivolous and ought to be addressed appropriately by the Commission," Swarm said in an ex parte filing Wednesday. The last time an operator disregarded a bureau decision using the same argument, it resulted in an admonishment, the company said, citing a 2013 Media Bureau order on a dispute between Massillon Cable TV and Fox Sports Net Ohio (see 1302040072). Orbcomm outside counsel said it "intend[s] to litigate these issues at the Commission, and not in the trade press."
