7th Circuit Court of Appeals

Case Name: Physicians Healthsource, Inc., v. A-S Medication Solutions, LLC, et al.,

Case No.: 19-1452

Officials: FLAUM, MANION, and KANNE, Circuit Judges.

Focus: TCPA Violation

In February 2010, A-S Medication Solutions, LLC (“AMS”) sent a fax advertisement to 11,422 different numbers from a recently acquired customer list.

(“PHI”) filed a putative class action suit asserting that those faxes violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (“TCPA”), 47 U.S.C. § 227. The district court subsequently: certified the proposed class; granted PHI’s motion for summary judgment on liability against AMS and its CEO, Walter Hoff; entered a nearly $6 million judgement; and approved a distribution plan for that judgment. On appeal, AMS challenges all those decisions but the certification of the class. We affirm.
