M2Z Networks, Inc. ("M2Z") today informed the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") that it plans to seek a Writ of Mandamus from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. In seeking the Writ, M2Z will ask the D.C. Circuit to direct the FCC to come into immediate compliance with all parts of Section 7 of the Telecommunications Act by making a public interest determination on M2Z’s license application, which has been pending for over 15 months.
On May 5, 2006, more than 15 months ago, M2Z filed a license application that is governed, by operation of law, by Section 7’s requirement that the FCC make a time-limited public interest determination about the application. M2Z’s license application seeks FCC authority to provide a new wireless broadband service using advanced technologies on currently fallow spectrum in the 2155-2175 MHz band. In its application, M2Z voluntarily pledged to provide a free, fast, family friendly wireless broadband service throughout the United States consistent with a rapid and unprecedented build-out commitment.
