Text: This matter comes on before this Court on the appeal of Plaintiff-Appellant Robert W. Mauthe, M.D., P.C. (“Mauthe”), challenging the District Court’s order of January 28, 2019, under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) dismissing its case under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. § 227 (“TCPA”), against defendants Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc., a health insurance provider, and Spreemo Inc., a medical diagnostic services vendor, for their allegedly illegal transmission of an unsolicited fax to Mauthe. Mauthe v. Spreemo, No. 18-1902, 2019 WL 342715 (E.D. Pa. Jan 28, 2019). On March 28, 2019, two months after the District Court dismissed this case, we issued a precedential opinion construing the TCPA that is controlling here. Mauthe v. Optum, tInc., 925 F.3d 129 (3d Cir. 2019). For the reasons stated below, we will reverse the order of dismissal and remand the case to the District Court for further proceedings.
