Appeals Court Lets 'Do Not Call' List Go Forward

DENVER (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Trade Commission can go forward with its national "do not call" registry while an appeals court considers whether the list violates telemarketers' free speech rights, the U.S. Court of Appeals said on Wednesday.

The decision by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals makes it easier for the federal government to enforce its popular anti-telemarketing program.

The decision by a three-judge panel came about a week after the do not call list had been scheduled to go into force.

-- Now all we have to do is wait to see what happens next week.
