Sixth Circuit Clarifies Definition of an Advertisement Under the TCPA | Practical Law
The US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit recently considered, for the first time in that circuit, when a fax is an advertisement as a matter of law under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) in Sandusky Wellness Center, LLC v. Medco Health Solutions, Inc. The court held that the faxes at issue were not advertisements and therefore were not subject to the TCPA because they were not sent to promote products for sale or with the intention of making a profit for the sender.
