UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
About This Case
In the case of Satterfield v. Simon and Schuster, Inc. a federal court of appeals ruled that texting is as much a violation of the TCPA as calls. (Also see 2003 TCPA Order, 18 FCC Rcd at 14115, para. 165 (noting that text messaging is a form of communication used primarily between telephones and is therefore consistent with the definition of a “call”).
