Subject: TCPA Litigation Update - Oklahoma: The Latest State To
Enact A "Mini-TCPA"
by Matthew Novian
Oklahoma is the latest to join states like Florida in placing
restrictions on telephonic sales calls in the wake of the United
States Supreme Court's decision in Facebook v. Duguid, 141
S. Ct. 1163, 1167 (2021), which significantly limited the application
of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") to live calls and
text messages. These so-called "mini-TCPA" laws establish varying
degrees of liability, but the Oklahoma Telephone Solicitation Act of
2022 ("OTSA") largely mimics the stringent Florida Telephone
Solicitation Act ("FTSA").

Subject: TCPA Regulatory Update - FCC Reminds Small Providers Of
STIR/SHAKEN Deadline
by Russell H. Fox and Jonathan P. Garvin
The Wireline Competition Bureau of the Federal Communications
Commission ("Commission") released a Public Notice reminding
non-facilities-based "small providers" - those voice service providers
with 100,000 or fewer voice access lines - that the Commission's
deadline for implementing STIR/SHAKEN caller ID authentication
technology on the Internet Protocol ("IP") portion of their networks
is June 30, 2022. The new deadline also applies to those
facilities-based small providers suspected of originating illegal
robocalls.

Subject: Another Florida Telephone Solicitation Act First - A Class
Settlement Is On Its Way
by Daniel S. Blynn
Everyone remember that Alvarez v. Sunshine Life & Health Advisors LLC
putative Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (FTSA) litigation we've
covered? You know, the one where the plaintiff's counsel argued that
the FTSA extends to text messages, whereas its federal counterpart,
the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), "doesn't even regulate
text messages"? It's the case where the state trial court (wrongly)
denied the defendant's motion to dismiss - the first dismissal
decision in an FTSA case, although it had virtually nothing to do with
the substance of the statute - finding that the receipt of two
allegedly unsolicited, autodialed marketing text messages was enough
to confer standing under Florida law. Yeah, that Alvarez case.
