the battle continues:

http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/09/25/congress.no.call/index.html

"But as Congress was giving the bill a thumbs-up, a federal judge in
Denver was issuing another legal hurdle to the do-not-call registry. U.S.
District Judge Edward Nottingham issued an opinion blocking the list based
on telemarketers' free speech rights.[rather than the authority of the
FTC, the first judge's argument]

"Nottingham's decision could be more difficult for advocates of the list
to sidestep because it cannot be addressed with Congressional action and
must be resolved by the courts."
