SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 27 – A medical
staffing company cold-sent a
promotional fax to Juva Skin
and Laser Center and the
latter sued them for spam,
under the 1991 Telephone
Consumer Protection
Act.
On October 27 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
John G. Koeltl held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The faxer,
a man named Fred, was told
that a corporation like
Locums, Inc. cannot go pro se.
Fred explained
that he had immediately
assured the skin care business
that they would not fax again.
But now they want to know of
Locums' financial condition
and any insurance.
The case is Bruce
E. Katz, MD PC v. Locums,
Inc., 20-cv-2899 (Koeltl)
