Why C is correct
The calling-hours restriction of 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. local time is a product of the federal Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 CFR 310). Arizona's Do Not Call statute (A.R.S. 44-1282) provides registry protection and a per-violation penalty, but it contains no time-of-day calling limit; the two regimes must be kept separate.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Arizona has not enacted a calling-hours limit of its own; the window is purely federal.
- B) There is no separate Arizona calling-hours limit to point to.
- D) Federal law does restrict calling hours under 16 CFR 310, so it is wrong to say no law restricts them.
Memory hook
Hours are federal (16 CFR 310); penalties are state (A.R.S. 44-1282) — never blend them.
