  • Patent number: 5819171
    Abstract: A method and apparatus which provide the ability to disrupt normal completion of a specific call made through a wireless telephone system. The specified call can be forced to be immediately ended, re-routed immediately to a selectable destination, or linked to a local voice frequency interface. The disruption of the call can occur at any point in time over the duration of the call. The decision to disrupt the call, as well as which action to take against the call, can be selected manually by a human or automatically through a standard data interface provided.
