FTC and FCC release tentative agenda for March 23 policy forum on robocalls
Thursday, March 22, 2018

As we previously reported, on March 23, 2018 in Washington, D.C., the FTC and FCC will co-host a joint policy forum that will cover recent policy changes and enforcement actions as well as the agencies’ efforts to encourage private sector technological solutions.  We believe the event will be of interest to clients who launch legitimate account management or marketing campaigns from autodialers as well as those whose names have been misappropriated by fraudulent telemarketers.

Because it comes on the heels of the D.C. Circuit’s March 16 decision addressing a number of critical issues involving the Telephone Consumer Protection Act’s restrictions on the use of autodialers, the forum is likely to include a discussion of the decision.  Ballard has issued a legal alert summarizing the decision and will hold a webinar on April 3, 2018 in which the participants will address the decision’s implications and its potential impact on pending and future TCPA litigation.  (Our legal alert includes a link to register for the webinar.)

The tentative agenda and other information about the event, including how to access a live video feed, can be found here.
