Event Synopsis:
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) final regulations requiring prior express written consent for autodialed telemarketing calls to cell phones and pre-recorded telemarketing messages under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") went into effect on October 16, 2013.

•What Calls Are Affected?
•What Is an Automatic Telephone Dialing System?
•What Is Express Written Consent?
•What If There Is an Existing Business Relationship?
•Are There Any Exceptions?
