On May 15, 2023, New Jersey Governor, Phil Murphy signed SB921 (the
"Seinfeld Bill") into law, which amends and adds to New Jersey's
telemarketing law. As readers of this blog know, this comes on the
heels of Maryland's enactment of its own mini–Telephone Consumer
Protection Act ("TCPA") law. The Seinfeld Bill is effective as of
December 2023.

The Seinfeld Bill is notably less comprehensive than the mini-TPCA
laws of Florida, Maryland, Washington, and Oklahoma. Unlike those
mini-TCPA laws, the New Jersey law, among other things, does not
include:

* A rebuttable presumption about calls placed to in-state area codes;
* A business-to-business exception;
* Whether there is a private right of action; and
* A provision concerning the use of autodialers.

* I get the feeling this went out before, but I don't know if I'm 
* right. It was in the report dated May 30, so probably not.
