MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK

U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

KENNETH MOSER, dba Marketing Support No. 21-70099 Systems, FCC No. EB-TCD-18-00028267 Petitioner,

v. MEMORANDUM*

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS

COMMISSION; UNITED STATES OF

AMERICA,

Respondents.

On Petition for Review of an Order of the Federal Communications Commission

Submitted March 16, 2023**

Before: WALLACE, D. NELSON, and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.

Kenneth Moser seeks review of a forfeiture order issued by the Federal

Communications Commission (“FCC”), holding that Moser, doing business as

Marketing Support Systems, violated the Truth in Caller ID Act of 2009, 47 U.S.C.

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). § 227(e), by conducting a large-scale robocalling campaign using false caller

identification information to display a number belonging to a business rival. We

dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

The district court has exclusive jurisdiction over the petition because Moser

seeks to avoid enforcement of a forfeiture order. See 47 U.S.C. § 504(a) (“The

forfeitures provided for in this chapter . . . shall be recoverable . . . in a civil suit in

the name of the United States brought in the district where the person or carrier has

its principal operating office[.]”); Dougan v. F.C.C., 21 F.3d 1488, 1491 (9th Cir.

1994) (“We hold that 47 U.S.C. § section 504(a) vests exclusive jurisdiction in the

district courts to hear enforcement suits by the government, and suits by private

individuals seeking to avoid enforcement.”).

DISMISSED.
