Certification granted to class action lawsuit against MetLife for unsolicited faxes

A federal judge in Florida has issued a certification for a class action lawsuit against MetLife for responsibility for alleged unsolicited fax advertising by one of its partners.

While the class action suit is still in the early states, it is alleged that 35,000 Missouri residents received unsolicited advertisements over fax in 2012, and penalties can range up to $500 per each violation.
