Insurance Coalition Seeks to Vacate FCC’s Dec. 18 Order on Illegal Robotexts
The Insurance Marketing Coalition seeks 11th U.S. Circuit Appeals Court review of the FCC’s Dec. 18 order for implementing rules under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act to target and eliminate illegal robotexts, said IMC’s petition Thursday (docket 23-14125).

The order exceeds the FCC’s statutory jurisdiction or authority, and was adopted “without observance of procedure required by law,” it said. IMC wants the 11th Circuit to vacate the order, said the petition.
The order imposes several measures, including codifying that the national do not call registry’s protections apply to text messages. IMC is filing this "protective petition for review now out of an abundance of caution," said the coalition. It will file a second petition for review when the order is published in the Federal Register, it said.
