TCPA Complaint in SDNY Also Alleges Breach of Florida's Mini-TCPA

Pinellas County, Florida, resident Michelle Taylor filed a Telephone Consumer Protection Act complaint Friday against MobStub, alleging the e-commerce site inundated her for the past year with “dozens of telephonic sales calls.” The suit (docket 1:22-cv-08562), filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, also alleges Florida Telephone Solicitation Act violations because the New York-based MobStub “initiated and directed” calls into Florida, said the complaint. MobStub “engages in aggressive telephonic sales calls to consumers without having secured prior express written consent as required under the FTSA and with no regard to consumer rights under the TCPA,” it said. Taylor seeks statutory damages under federal and Florida law, plus an injunction requiring MobStub “to cease all telephonic sales calls made without valid consent under the FTSA,” said her complaint. MobStub didn’t comment Wednesday.
