citing decisions per year

Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.

Sec. 5. A customer of a telecommunications provider may not be:

(2) billed for services by a telecommunications provider that without the customer's authorization added the services to the customer's service order.
