Friedman" <njf@commlaw.com> To: Multiple recipients of list <telecomreg@relay.doit.wisc.edu> Subject: FCC Sets Comment Date for Internet Phone Call Rulemaking X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0b -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas X-Comment: Requests (UNSUBSCRIBE/HELP) to: listserver@relay.doit.wisc.edu X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 1.5.4b11 (32) The FCC has acted with astonishing speed in setting a date for comments on the ACTA petition to regulate telephone calls via the Internet. It is not uncommon for rule making petitions to sit for weeks, months, even years without action. ACTA filed its petition on March 6th and two days later the FCC issued a Public Notice seeking comment. The deadline for comments is April 8, 1996 with reply comments due 15 days later. After reviewing the comments, the FCC will either terminate the proceeding without further action or issue a Notice of Proposed Rule Making seeking further comments on a proposed rule. Time is of the essence for those who may be interested in opposing the Notice. Our law firm would be available to represent parties who may wish to file joint comments in opposition. Please contact me privately if you have any interest. _____________________________________________________________ |Neal J.
