In plain language

What this regime says.

Indiana telephone solicitation and autodialer statutes is a state analogue to the federal TCPA. Indiana's do-not-call statute is among the most aggressively enforced in the country, but by the Attorney General rather than by individuals. The AG's Telephone Privacy division actively prosecutes, so a complaint here is more likely to produce action than in most states.

Who is covered

People receiving unwanted marketing calls or texts on a Indiana number.

What you get

No confirmed private right of action. The route is a complaint to the state regulator or Attorney General.

Where claims go wrong

  • Assuming the state statute has the same elements as the federal one. Several deliberately do not, in both directions.
The official claim route

Authority

Every citation,
with its pinpoint.

A claim that cites “EU law” gets filed. A claim that cites Article 7(1)(c) gets answered. These are the exact coordinates this entry rests on.

Sources

Where a figure is indexed, converted or published by a regulator rather than fixed in the instrument, the provenance is recorded separately. Anything marked as a modelled estimate is exactly that — a model, not a statutory number.

What it imposes

Clocks, defences and the ladder.

A rule module builds these while it evaluates, because a limitation period depends on which forum is open to you. What follows is the structure this regime produces — deliberately with no dates and no figures, because those belong to your facts rather than to the law.

The clocks it starts

  • Indiana limitation period (4 years, assumed)We could not confirm the limitation period for this statute and have shown 4 years as a working assumption only. Do not rely on it: check the state's general period for a liability created by statute before you let time run.Ind. Code art. 24-4.7 (telephone solicitation) and Ind. Code ch. 24-5-14 (automatic dialing machines) — IC 24-4.7; IC 24-5-14Limitation period

Where to take it next

  1. Written demand to the sellerRun the state claim in the same letter as the federal one. Two statutes with two damages provisions concentrate a recipient's attention considerably more than one.Claim directtypically 30 days
  2. Complain to the Indiana regulator or Attorney GeneralThis is the primary route for this state, since we could not confirm a private right of action. State AGs and utility commissions do impose real penalties per call.Regulatortypically 90 daysofficial page
