Federal appeals court says no to first amendment claim in telemarketing case

Article Abstract:

Dr. Jason Goodman, a chiropractor licensed in Illinois, wants to conduct telemarketing for his services, to open a clinic at Springfield. But Illinois Medical Act prevents medical professionals from soliciting patients. Dr. Goodman filed a First Amendment challenge to the law and requested preliminary injunction against Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). Seventh court turned down the plea as Dr. Goodman did not show that his telemarketing calls would be completely truthful.
