California ALJ Faults SBC On Linking Voice, DSL Service

Abstract

"We are in the process of reviewing the decision, but at first glance, it appears that ALJ [Anne] Simon took a strong stance against the illegal tactics of SBC," said Jeff Compton, vice president-carrier relations at Telscape. "This case brought to light a few of the many examples of SBC's style of using discriminatory practices that are unlawful, undermine regulators, and harm consumers and competitors."
