| GDI SERVICES INC.source ↗ filed by Feasterville-Trevose, PA 19053 · Judge Kelley Brisbon Hodge · No. 2:26-cv-06497 · 42:12101 The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $29.50M–$76M ▾TCPA robocall claims show mixed outcomes: Howard, Perrong, and Hulce all resulted in dismissal or affirmance for defendants, while League of Women Voters survived a motion to dismiss on similar robocall theory. GDI Services is a facility-services company, suggesting smaller commercial call volume than typical telecom/bank defendants in large settlements. Comparable settlements $29.50M–$76M median $36.20M · n=10 Caribbean Cruise L $76M · Dish Network $61M · US Coachways $49.90M Per member (realized): ~$20 median · $10–$500 (n=4) Comparable verdict: Dish Network, L.L.C. $61M · ccAdvertising $32.42M Key precedent: Hulce v. Zipongo - 7th Cir. affirmed that non-solicitation calls/texts don't trigger TCPA, a plausible defense if GDI's texts were service-related, not marketing. Main risk: Dismissal on grounds that calls/texts were non-marketing or that GDI lacks 'initiation' under TCPA, per Howard and Hulce reasoning. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $6K–$675K No prior record on defendant; class size is speculative from generic web signals, not actual call logs or litigation filings. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 3 verdicts | Filing | Robocalls & Texts (TCPA) | E.D.
