   Connor v. First Choice Media LLC, et al.,   
      
   On April 10, 2023, Mr. Jay Connor, a pro seplaintiff, filed a   
   Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") lawsuit against First   
   Choice Media LLC, et al., in the United States District Court for the   
   District of South Carolina. Pro se plaintiffs are individuals who   
   choose to represent themselves in TCPA lawsuits instead of hiring an   
   attorney.   
      
   The complaint alleges that Plaintiff received "multiple anonymous,   
   unsolicited calls" in violation of both the TCPA and the South   
   Carolina Telephone Privacy Protection Act ("SCTPPA"). Specifically,   
   the complaint alleges that the caller falsely purported to be with the   
   National Do Not Call Registry ("DNC") and stated that because   
   Plaintiff's number was listed on the DNC, he must consent "to receive   
   shipments of covid 19 testing kits." Absent consenting to same, he   
   would continue to receive unwanted telemarketing calls. Although   
   Plaintiff proceeded to provide consent, he, nonetheless, continued to   
   receive calls from Defendants.
