Client of Lemberg Law, Alex Hudson, brings this class action lawsuit against Palm Beach Tan, Inc. Hudson claims Palm Beach repeatedly sent unwanted telemarketing text messages, violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). He seeks damages and an injunction to stop these practices.
The Complaint
Plaintiff Alex Hudson filed a First Amended Class Action Complaint against Palm Beach Tan, Inc. Hudson alleges that Palm Beach violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by sending unsolicited telemarketing text messages to his cell phone. Despite Hudson’s repeated requests for Palm Beach to stop and his number being on the National Do-Not-Call Registry since 2009, the company continued to send promotional messages about tanning products and services. Palm Beach is a major indoor tanning salon chain, using aggressive telemarketing tactics to promote its services. The tanning company sent multiple unauthorized texts to numbers on the Do-Not-Call Registry, failing to honor do-not-call requests promptly. Palm Beach knowingly continued sending messages despite recipients’ requests to stop, showing willful disregard for the law.
Hudson aims to represent a class of individuals who also received unwanted telemarketing texts from Palm Beach. He highlights the steps he took to stop the messages, including registering his number on the Do-Not-Call Registry and sending multiple “STOP” requests. Despite these efforts, Palm Beach persisted in sending texts, causing Hudson and others frustration and inconvenience.
Claims for Relief
Hudson seeks several forms of relief: an injunction to prevent further violations, statutory damages for each unsolicited message, treble damages for willful violations, attorneys’ fees, costs, and any other appropriate relief. He also demands a jury trial for all counts in the complaint.
