Judge Grants Extension to Dec. 2 for State Farm’s Answer in TCPA Suit

U.S. District Judge John Kness for Northern Illinois granted State Farm’s unopposed motion for a 28-day deadline extension to Dec. 2 to answer an Oct. 10 complaint that it violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, said a minute entry Friday (docket 1:22-cv-05546). State Farm’s response was originally due Monday, but newly hired counsel requires additional time to conduct investigation the TCPA allegations and prepare a response, said its Friday motion.
