Comparable settlements $29.50M–$76M ▾
TCPA robocall claims show split outcomes: Howard and Perrong were dismissed on technical/exception grounds, while League of Women Voters survived MTD on similar robocall theory. Hulce shows courts scrutinize whether calls are 'solicitations' triggering TCPA liability.
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, LLC $61M · ccAdvertising and Dr $32.42M
Key precedent: League of Women Voters v. Kramer (D.N.H.) — robocall TCPA claim survived MTD on adequately pled lack of consent, most factually analogous.
Main risk: Dismissal if calls lack prerecorded/artificial voice element per Howard, or if consent was arguably given via prior business relationship
Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $10K–$2M
