Public Service Telephone Co. v. Georgia Public Service Commission

District Court, N.D. Georgia · 2010-02-04

The case involved a local exchange carrier, Public Service Telephone Company (PSTC), challenging orders by the Georgia Public Service Commission that required PSTC to treat certain calls to numbers assigned to wireless carriers Alltel and Verizon Wireless as local traffic under interconnection agreements, rather than as toll traffic subject to access charges. PSTC sought a permanent injunction in federal district court, arguing that the Commission's rulings on call rating, routing, and compensation violated federal telecommunications law and state procedures. The court denied injunctive relief and entered judgment for the Commission and the wireless carriers. It reasoned that PSTC had not shown actual success on the merits, that monetary damages provided an adequate remedy, and that the public interest favored efficient and competitive telecommunications services consistent with the Telecommunications Act.
