How federal and Kentucky claims work together
A single unwanted call or text can support more than one claim. The federal TCPA addresses how the communication was placed, including autodialed calls, prerecorded and artificial-voice messages, and calls to numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry. Kentucky Telephone Solicitation statutes and the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act address conduct under Kentucky law and can add remedies. Federal TCPA statutory damages of $500-$1,500 per violation.
