Judge Directs Peerless to Address Billing for Long-Distance Termination Services

U.S. Magistrate Judge Embry Kidd is taking under advisement Local Access’ motion to compel Peerless Networks to respond to two interrogatories before Tuesday, said a Thursday notice in U.S. District Court for Middle Florida in Orlando (docket 6:17-cv-00236). Kidd directed Local Access to file a reply, no longer than 500 words, about the relevance of Peerless’ billing and revenue for long-distance termination services, including citations to the record and pleadings on prior discussions of long-distance termination services, if any. Local Access sued Peerless in 2017, alleging breach of contract and unjust enrichment related to homing tandem service traffic on Peerless’ network.
