$21,000 Award Upheld Against Attorney Who Faxed Unsolicited Ads
A $21,000 award against a lawyer who “knowingly” violated a prohibition against faxing unsolicited ads has been upheld by a divided New York appeals panel. In a 3-2 unsigned opinion, the Appellate Division, 1st Department, said the attorney’s argument that the faxed “attorney malpractice reports” were “purely informational defies common-sense.”
