| Federal officials and four states Wednesday sued satellite-TV service Dish Network, saying that “numerous” consumers on the national do-not-call list were called on its behalf in violation of the law. The suit was filed in federal court in Illinois by the U.S. Department of Justice on behalf of the Federal Trade Commission against Dish Network LLC, a unit of Dish Network Corp. Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, along with the attorneys general of California, Ohio and North Carolina joined in the complaint. Also sued were two companies identified as Dish Network dealers, Vision Quest LLC and New Edge Satellite Inc. Those suits were filed in federal court in Michigan. Englewood, Colo.-based Dish Network (NASDAQ: DISH) disputed the allegations against it, saying it is in compliance with “do-not-call” laws. “We look forward to resolving these differences of opinion through the judicial process,” the company said in a statement Wednesday. The federal complaint alleges that Dish Network, “directly and through its authorized dealers,” called customers on the National Do Not Call Registry. The complaint also alleged that the company violated federal telemarketing rules by assisting its authorized dealers in marketing Dish Network services via automatic “robocalls” to potential customers. The government is seeking unspecified civil penalties. It also wants an injunction against Dish Network barring it from violating do-not-call and telemarketing laws and requiring it to monitor its dealers’ compliance. Dish Network serves about 13.7 million satellite-TV customers.
