Do DNC Call Rules Apply To Text Messaging?

On August 26 2025, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida issued a useful decision for companies contesting National Do Not Call ("DNC") claims. In Davis v. CVS Pharmacy, Inc., the Court granted Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, finding that Plaintiff had not plausibly alleged that Defendant had placed multiple calls in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA"). As our readers are aware, the TCPA generally prohibits companies from placing telemarketing calls to consumers who have registered their telephone numbers on the National Do Not Call list. These DNC Call rules are strictly enforced and also serve as the basis of many TCPA private rights of action.
