Hotel Franchise Sufficiently Alleged That Faxes Were Unsolicited, Judge Finds

Mealey's (February 7, 2018, 2:50 PM EST) -- BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — A federal judge in Connecticut on Feb. 2 held that a franchisee of Wyndham Worldwide sufficiently alleged that a company violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), as amended by the Junk Fax Prevention Act (JFPA), and state law by sending unsolicited faxes, holding that a ruling finding that there is “an established business relationship” between the companies is more appropriate at a later stage in the suit (Gorss Motels Inc. v. AVM Enterprises Inc., No. 17-cv-1078, D. Conn., 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 17748)....
