N.C. Federal Court Casts Doubt on Extraterritorial Reach of State Telemarketing Statute
TCPA blog
The Middle District of North Carolina recently denied, in part, a motion seeking dismissal of serial TCPA plaintiff Craig Cunningham’s complaint alleging violations of the TCPA and the North Carolina Telephone Solicitations Act (NCTSA). See Cunningham v. Wallace & Graham, P.A., et al., No. 1:24-cv-00221 (M.D.N.C. Nov. 19, 2024). The court suggested that the NCTSA probably does not apply extraterritorially but ultimately denied defendants’ motion to dismiss the NCTSA claim because the parties did not brief the issue.
