ALPHA GAS: Court Grants Prelim OK of $1.1MM TCPA Class Deal
Class Action Reporter republished multiple articles authored by Troutman Sanders partner David Anthony and associate Julie Hoffmeister; one centered on the approval of a $1.1 million TCPA class action settlement against Alpha Gas and Electric. The article describes the case, in which the plaintiff claimed that Alpha Gas’ use of an automatic telephone dialing system for telemarketing purposes allegedly violated the TCPA, and urges companies across industries to ensure compliance with TCPA to avoid this type of exposure. Another article reported on the final approval of a class action settlement against casino Boyd Biloxi LLC, in which the named plaintiff alleged that telemarketing messages violated the TCPA.
