Subject: [Voip] Coalition filed challenge to CALEA rulemaking
As many of you have heard, a small but top notch coalition of
companies and organizations filed with the DC Circuit a petition for
review challenging the FCC's CALEA order. The appeal is styled
COMPTEL v. FCC, and the Petitioners are:
American Library Association,
Association of Research Libraries,
COMPTEL,
Center for Democracy and Technology,
Electronic Frontier Foundation,
Electronic Privacy Information Center,
Pulver.com,
Sun Microsystems,
The brief, essentially pro forma Petition for Review is available at
http://www.cdt.org/digi_tele/20051025caleapetition.pdf .
Thanks to all of the Petitioners and everyone else who has
contributed to the development of this legal challenge. We will keep
you posted on developments.
As you may also have heard, yesterday the American Council on
Education filed a separate petition for review in the DC Circuit of
the CALEA order. ACE is an organization of university presidents and
executives. The two separate petitioners will certainly -- to an as
yet unknown degree -- be consolidated into a single proceeding.
