  • willful misconduct caused MCI to disconnect the All Eights Number. The Second Supplemental Petition presents information gleaned from Staton's February 2006 deposition of an MCI employee in connection with Staton's ongoing lawsuit against Call Interactive. In particular, Staton asserts that the deposition bolsters its claim of willful misconduct on the part of MCI and further demonstrates that MCI violated section 52.103(d) of the Commission's rules by reassigning the All Eights Number to Call Interactive without first placing it in the spare number pool. Staton fails to justify either reopening the record or consideration of its newly-proffered evidence and claims of unlawful conduct. The Commission's rules make clear that absent a compelling public interest, reconsideration is not available to either revisit questions

  • RespOrgs are able to use the SMS/800 to effectuate transfers that are contrary to our rules. The Commission's toll-free number regulations, which are published in the Code of Federal Regulations at 47 C.F.R. section 52.101 et seq., do not provide for toll-free numbers to be transferred directly from one subscriber to another. In particular, the ``lag time'' regulations at section 52.103 provide only for numbers to be returned to Spare Status when subscribers no longer use them. Also, the ``hoarding'' regulations at section 52.107 prohibit selling a toll free number for a fee. These rules implement the Commission's policy that numbers must be made available to subscribers on a "first come, first served" basis. Direct transfers of numbers between subscribers contravene

The Texas Commission found that the services ASAP provides to ISPs require ASAP to register with the state commission as a nondominant carrier because it meets the definition of a ``telecommunications utility'' under section 52.103 of PURA. See id., Ex. 1 at 3-4. ASAP contends that the Texas Commission cannot require an entity that provides only interstate service to subject itself to state regulation. ASAP Paging Petition at 50.

Toll free numbers in the NANP, along with electronic records for those numbers, are contained in the centralized SMS/800 Database.

  • is one of several FCC provisions governing the allocation of toll-free numbers. Absent the Commission's temporary reassignment, it appears that the hotlines would have gone into either "disconnect" or "suspend" status, and would either have returned to the Center's use or, after four or eight months, respectively, would have lapsed back into the general pool for reassignment. See id. § 52.103. Because of the Center's financial problems, of course, service for persons contemplating suicide might have been severely limited. (In "disconnect" status there would likely have been "an exchange carrier intercept recording."See id. §52.103(a)(2).

  • Control Points. When a caller places an 800 call, a switch belonging to the caller's local exchange carrier (LEC) queries the regional SCP for routing information. The SCP then instructs the switch to route the call to the subscriber's chosen IXC, which delivers the call to the subscriber. Database Service Management, Inc. (DSMI) manages the SMS, see 47 C.F.R. s 52.103(f)(1), but does not itself collect or update the data the SMS uses to route calls. Instead, so-called Responsible Organizations input and update the information contained in the SMS database. See CompTel Declaratory Ruling, 8 F.C.C.R. 1423, p 19. Any entity that meets certain financial, technical, and service-related eligibility criteria--whether an IXC, an LEC, a subscriber, or another type of entity--may
