TCPA QUICK HITTER
The Actual “ Wolf Of Wall Street ” Is Still Stuck in That TCPA Case In Florida And Things Just Got Worse
By Jenniffer Cabrera
SO the Wolf of Wall Street — Jordan Belfort — looks to be in pretty big trouble in a TCPA class action down in Florida .
Wouldn ’ t it be funny if the guy survived all of his Wall Street antics only to be taken down by the TCPA ?
Seems possible .
Belfort allegedly — through his company Global Motivation , Inc .— blasted some folks with text messages without consent .
The case was assigned to the Hon . Judge Cannon — famously presiding over the Trump took-documents-and-didn ’ t-give-themback case ( never understood what he was thinking there )— who promptly dismissed the case for lack of standing .
Well , the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals just reversed her — um , not the first time — but found that the errant ruling wasn ’ t her fault :
We do not fault the district court ’ s reliance on Salcedo and Drazen I when it dismissed the case in December 2022 . Nevertheless , we review standing issues de novo , Muransky v . Godiva Chocolatier , Inc ., 979 F . 3d 917 , 923 ( 11th Cir . 2020 ) ( en banc ), and with the benefit of Drazen II , we conclude Muccio has standing to bring his claims
Yep , this is the fallout from that huge Drazen decision ( which we discuss in Episode 15 of Deserve to Win ! which you can find on our website in our August 28 blog post ).

So the case is live again . Fascinating stuff . We will keep an eye on this .
