1. A method comprising:
- receiving speech of a call from a caller at a processor;
using the processor to determine a first call destination for the call based on the speech;
using the processor to determine whether the caller is in compliance with a first business rule based on a comparison of a time period, to a threshold time period, wherein the time period is associated with a voice message box of the caller being full;
routing the call to the first call destination in response to the caller being in compliance with the first business rule; and

15. A system, comprising:
-
a processor; a network interface to receive speech input of a call from a caller; an action-object routing module executable by the processor to determine a first call destination based on the speech input; and a business rule module executable by the processor, the business rule module operative to; route the call to the first call destination in response to the caller being in compliance with a first business rule; and route the call to a second call destination in response to the caller not being in compliance with the first business rule; wherein a determination of whether the caller is in compliance with the first business rule is based on a comparison of a time period to a threshold time period, wherein the time period is associated with a voice message box of the caller being full. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
