   Client Alert: Circuit Split on Definition of "Autodialer" Under the   
   TCPA Leaves Companies at Risk (UPDATED)   
      
   By Katherine Dennis Nye   
      
   UPDATE: On July 9, 2020, the Supreme Court granted a petition for   
   certiorari from Facebook Inc., setting the court up to settle the   
   circuit split over what constitutes an autodialer. Facebook brought   
   this appeal from a Ninth Circuit decision that revived a consumer   
   class action against Facebook over unsolicited security texts sent to   
   stored numbers, on the basis that the dialing system had the   
   "capacity" to text randomly generated numbers.[1] This follows a   
   decision of the Second Circuit earlier this spring[2] that adopted the   
   Ninth Circuit's more expansive definition of an autodialer.
