Last month, a magistrate judge for the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Florida issued an informative report and recommendation in Zononi v. CHW Grp., Inc ("CHW"). Plaintiff sued CHW
for allegedly sending him multiple commercial text messages without
his consent. Plaintiff alleges that these text messages violated both
the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") and the Florida
Telephone Solicitation Act ("FTSA"). In turn, defendant filed a motion
to dismiss the action. The TCPA is a federal statute designed to
protect consumer privacy by restricting certain types of telemarketing communications. The FTSA, colloquially known as a Mini-TCPA, is
Florida's own set of telemarketing laws designed to regulate the
delivery of intrastate telemarketing communications. Every day,
numerous decisions are rendered in TCPA litigation across the
country. The Zononi decision is notable because of the careful and
detailed analysis of defendant's motion undertaken by the Court.
