Legal Alert:

  USF Enforcement

Clients and Interested Parties:

Recently, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) levied a financial penalty for Universal Service Fund (USF) violations that represents its largest to date. Global Crossing North America, Inc., and two of its subsidiaries (collectively,Global Crossing) apparently failed to make timely required USF contributions. Based on its enforcement investigation, the Commission proposed a $10 million penalty or forfeiture for the violations. The proposed forfeiture dwarfs the vast majority of financial penalties issued by the FCC to date for USF violations.
