Fla. Judge Dismisses Class Action vs. Ariz. Firearms Firm Without Prejudice

With plaintiff Aaron Bolton having filed a notice of settlement in his Telephone Consumer Protection Act class action against Arizona firearms company Unlimited Ammo, U.S. District Judge John Badalamenti for Middle Florida in Tampa dismissed the case without prejudice, said his text order Wednesday (docket 8:24-cv-00226). The dismissal is subject to the right of any party within 60 days to move to reopen the case, said the order. If no such motion is filed, the dismissal of this case will be with prejudice, it said. Bolton alleged that the company sent multiple telemarketing text messages to his cellphone number, though that number has been listed on the national do not call registry since July 2013 (see 2401250001).
