T-Mobile Asks CPUC to Dismiss MetroPCS Case After Court Ruling

T-Mobile’s MetroPCS asked to dismiss a California Public Utilities Commission investigation into a dispute over USF surcharges due to completion of a related court case at the U.S. District Court for Northern California. MetroPCS won judgment against the CPUC earlier this month (see 2308040071). The federal court decided the resolutions the agency was trying to enforce against MetroPCS “are unlawful (because they are preempted by federal law) and enjoined the Commission from enforcing the Resolutions against MetroPCS,” T-Mobile said in Thursday’s motion.
