State-by-State Updates

Missourians, enough is enough. Those relentless robocalls interrupting your dinner, waking your

family, or harassing you at all hours aren’t just annoying—they’re often illegal under both

federal and state law. With the Missouri Playbook from TeleJusticePro.com, you have the exact

roadmap to fight back in Missouri Circuit Court or federal district court as a pro se litigant.

Key Missouri Statute: Missouri Merchandising Practices Act (MMPA), Mo. Rev. Stat. §

407.020 et seq., and Telemarketing Practices under § 407.1076. The MMPA broadly prohibits

deceptive, unfair, or fraudulent practices in commerce, including misleading telemarketing.

Specific telemarketing rules ban calls outside 8 a.m.–9 p.m., repeated/annoying calls, and

ignoring do-not-call requests. Violations qualify as unlawful practices.

Damages Under Missouri Law: You can pursue actual damages (with objective evidence),

attorney fees (if applicable), and potentially punitive damages (capped but available in strong

cases). The law empowers consumers to hold violators accountable for ascertainable losses from

these invasive practices.

Stack with the TCPA for Compound Power: Layer on the federal Telephone Consumer

Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227). Each illegal robocall or robotext can bring $500 in statutory

damages (or actual damages, whichever is greater), trebled to $1,500 per violation if willful or

knowing. Combine with MMPA claims for multiplied recovery, injunctions to stop the calls, and

full judgment enforcement tools. Multiple calls? The numbers add up fast—thousands or tens of

thousands in potential awards.

Missouri residents: You live in a state with strong consumer tools and one-party consent for

recordings (perfect for evidence). Don’t wait for the next ring—document, demand, and sue.

Grab the Missouri Playbook today, become a TeleJustice warrior, and turn violation after

violation into real compensation. Your phone, your rights, your money. Take back control now!
