Telecommunications Litigation

National Communications Association, Inc. v. AT&T

In National Communications Association, Inc. v. AT&T, 238 F.3d 124 (2d Cir. 2001), Blecher & Collins prosecuted the only successful case against AT&T for its activities restricting long distance resellers. This case was tried to a jury in New York City in 1999. In 2000, we won a jury trial in San Francisco in the only case against an incumbent local exchange carrier for the maintenance of its monopoly by excluding potential competitors, CalTech International Telecom Corporation v. Pacific Bell, Case No. C 97-2105, Northern District of California.
