Subject: Central Indiana AT&T customers frustrated by extended
internet outage following winter storm
Many AT&T customers in the Patel's neighborhood lost internet service
before Christmas. Failed attempts to reach customer support have only
increased frustrations.
By Rich Nye
CUMBERLAND, Indiana — UPDATE: Urmi Patel told 13News reporter
Rich Nye that AT&T’s internet service was restored in her Cumberland
neighborhood Wednesday morning after a six-day outage.
The loss of home internet service is just an inconvenience for some.
For those who work from home, it can mean lost wages. 13News
discovered many AT&T customers around central Indiana lost their
internet service during last week’s winter storm, and it’s still not
restored.

Subject: Former Seattle 911 manager says he warned city about deadly
dispatch problem
Brian Smith says he raised concerns about addresses being flagged as
dangerous for first responders based on potentially erroneous
information
By Daniel Beekman
SEATTLE —A former manager at Seattle's 911 call center says he was
wrongly punished for speaking up about problems at work, including a
practice that remains in use more than a year after allegedly leading
to a man's heart attack death.
Brian Smith says he raised concerns about certain addresses being
flagged as dangerous for first responders based on potentially
erroneous information about residents — and did so before the practice
caused medics to wait for a police escort and needlessly delay
treating heart attack victim William Yurek.

The Ninth And Eleventh Circuits Are Keeping TCPA Lawyers On Their
Toes
by Joshua Briones , Esteban Morales and Adam B. Korn
On the heels of Borden v. E-Financial, LLC, 2022 WL 16955661 (9th
Cir. Nov. 17, 2022), which we wrote about last month, the Ninth and
Eleventh Circuits have continued to keep TCPA lawyers on their toes.
Recently the Eleventh Circuit, in a per curiam opinion, halted an
appeal on the basis of standing to bring automatic telephone dialing
system (ATDS) claims. Evans v. Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, 2022 WL
17259718 (11th Cir. Nov. 29, 2022). In total, sixteen plaintiffs
brought TCPA claims, but the complaint only alleged that eight of the
plaintiffs received 27 to 877 calls. For the other eight plaintiffs,
the exact number of calls was not specified. The Eleventh Circuit
noted, "[f]or any of these plaintiffs, the 'exact number of calls they
received could be zero, one, or more than one. Each of these scenarios
would potentially present a different resolution to the standing
issue." Id. at *1. The Court added that while more "than one call is a
concrete injury that confers standing," current case law does not
address "whether a single call is sufficient to confer standing." Id.
