(August 26, 2005)

Before DUBINA and WILSON, Circuit Judges, and COOGLER*, District Judge.

*Honorable L. Scott Coogler, United States District Judge for the Northern District of
Alabama, sitting by designation.
WILSON, Circuit Judge:

This appeal requires that we engage in an exercise of statutory interpretation.

The statute at issue is the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2721, et

seq. (“DPPA”). Having considered the plain text of the statute, we conclude that a

plaintiff need not prove actual damages to recover liquidated damages for a

violation of the DPPA. Since the district court reached a contrary conclusion, we

reverse and remand.

I. BACKGROUND

In 1994, Congress enacted the DPPA to limit the release of an individual’s

personal information contained in his driver’s license record to those who had a

legitimate and lawful need for the information. Originally, the DPPA implemented

an opt-out procedure for driver’s license information disclosed for marketing

purposes. Under the opt-out procedure, a state could release or sell an individual’s

driver’s license information without the individual’s permission so long as the

individual was given an opportunity to opt out by requesting that the information

not be released. On October 9, 1999, Congress amended the DPPA to require an

opt-in procedure. The effective date of this amendment was June 1, 2000. As a

result of this amendment, a state’s department of motor vehicles cannot disclose an

individual’s driver’s license information without express permission from the

2
individual about whom the information pertains.

Forty-nine states immediately passed legislation to ensure compliance with

this amendment to the DPPA. Florida was the only state that did not immediately

comply. Instead, Florida waited until May 13, 2004, to amend its public records

statute to comply with the DPPA. See Fla. Stat. § 119.07(3)(aa)(12); 2004 Fla.

Sess. Law Serv. 2004-62 (West).

Fidelity is a publicly owned and locally operated savings bank. From June

1, 2000, to June 20, 2003, on a monthly basis, Fidelity purchased from the State of

Florida’s Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (“Florida DMV”) the

names and addresses of individuals who had registered new motor vehicles or used

motor vehicles less than three years old within the preceding month in Palm Beach,

Martin, and Broward Counties. Fidelity paid the Florida DMV one cent for each

name and address provided. The Florida DMV then forwarded the information

electronically to a third-party mass mailing service provider retained by Fidelity.

The mass mailing service provider mailed the solicitations to individuals to

refinance their motor vehicle loans. Over the course of the three years at issue,

Fidelity paid the State of Florida approximately $5,656.00 for the names of

approximately 565,600 individuals.

On July 1, 2003, James Kehoe, on behalf of himself and others similarly

3
situated, filed this putative class action. The gravamen of Kehoe’s complaint is

that Fidelity purchased his personal information from the Florida DMV without his

consent. At the conclusion of his complaint, Kehoe requested the following relief:

liquidated damages “in the amount of $2,500.00 for each instance in which

[Fidelity] obtained or used personal information concerning [Kehoe] and members

of the Class;” “punitive damages should the Court find that [Fidelity] acted in

willful or reckless disregard of the DPPA;” attorney’s fees and costs; the

destruction of any personal information unlawfully obtained from the Florida

DMV; and “such other relief as the Court deems appropriate.”

Fidelity responded to Kehoe’s complaint by filing a motion to dismiss the

complaint or, alternatively, enter summary judgment in favor of Fidelity. The

district court summarily denied Fidelity’s motion to dismiss the complaint and

deferred ruling on the summary judgment motion until after the completion of

discovery. After discovery, Fidelity renewed its motion for summary judgment.

The district court concluded that a plaintiff must prove some measure of actual

damages to maintain a claim under the DPPA. Because Kehoe had not asserted

that he incurred any actual damages, the district court granted summary judgment

in Fidelity’s favor and denied Kehoe’s motion for class certification as moot.

On appeal, Kehoe argues that the district court erred in holding that the

4
DPPA requires proof of actual damages prior to the award of liquidated damages.

Additionally, Kehoe argues that the district court erred in granting summary

judgment without considering his requests for class certification and injunctive

relief.1

II. STANDARD OF REVIEW

We review the district court’s grant of summary judgment de novo, applying

the same legal standards as the district court. See Hilburn v. Murata Elecs. N. Am.,

Inc., 181 F.3d 1220, 1225 (11th Cir. 1999). The interpretation of a statute is a

question of law subject to de novo review. DirecTV, Inc. v. Brown, 371 F.3d 814,

816 (11th Cir. 2004).

III. DISCUSSION

A. 18 U.S.C. § 2724(b), the DPPA’s Remedies Provision

The main issue in this case is whether a plaintiff must prove actual damages

before he may recover a liquidated damages award under the DPPA. This is an

1
The district court granted summary judgment without addressing the other statutory
remedies that Kehoe requested in his complaint. Even if we were to conclude that proof of
actual damages was necessary to be awarded liquidated damages, we still would have to remand
this case to district court for consideration of the other available remedies requested by Kehoe.
Additionally, Kehoe argues that the district court erred in entering final summary
judgment without considering the merits of the pending motion for class certification. However,
it is “within the court’s discretion to consider the merits of the claims before their amenability to
class certification.” Telfair v. First Union Mortgage Corp., 216 F.3d 1333, 1343 (11th Cir.
2000); see also Rink v. Cheminova, Inc., 400 F.3d 1286, 1297 (11th Cir. 2005), petition for cert.
filed, 74 U.S.L.W. 3025 (U.S. June 24, 2005).

issue of first impression for our Circuit. In reaching the conclusion that Kehoe

could not maintain a claim for liquidated damages under § 2721(b) without

proving that he had suffered actual damages, the district court relied upon what it

termed “the sum of several legal principles.” See Kehoe v. Fidelity Federal Bank

& Trust, No. 03-80593-CV-DTKH, 2004 WL 1659617, at *6 (S.D. Fla. June 14,

2004). Considering the relevant text of the DPPA as buttressed by instructive dicta

in Doe v. Chao, 540 U.S. 614, 124 S. Ct. 1204 (2004), we reach the opposite

conclusion. A plaintiff need not prove a measure of actual damages to recover

liquidated damages under the DPPA, and certainly need not prove actual damages

to recover the other types of remedies listed in § 2724(b).2

1. Textual Analysis of the DPPA

“In construing a statute we must begin, and often should end as well, with

the language of the statute itself . . . because we presume that Congress said what it

meant and meant what it said.” Harry v. Marchant, 291 F.3d 767, 770 (11th Cir.

2002)(en banc)(internal quotations and citations omitted). “[W]e need not resort to

extrinsic evidence, such as legislative history, to discern a statute’s meaning if the

2
While the instant case was pending on appeal, another district court in Florida issued an
opinion addressing this issue. See Schmidt v. Multimedia Holdings Corp., 361 F. Supp. 2d 1346,
1356 (M.D. Fla. 2004) (holding that a plaintiff must prove some measure of actual, pecuniary
loss to receive liquidated damages under the DPPA). To the extent that the reasoning in Schmidt
diverges from that of the district court in the instant case, we are still not persuaded.

6
statute’s meaning is unambiguous.” In re Paschen, 296 F.3d 1203, 1207 (11th Cir.

2002). “Any ambiguity in the statutory language must result from the common

usage of that language, not from the parties’ dueling characterizations of what

Congress ‘really meant.’” CBS, Inc. v. Primetime 24 Joint Venture, 245 F.3d 1217,

1225 (11th Cir. 2001).

The sections of the DPPA that are relevant to our analysis are: 18 U.S.C. §§

2722 and 2724. Section 2722 states, in pertinent part: “(a) Procurement for

unlawful purpose.– It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to obtain or

disclose personal information, from a motor vehicle record, for any use not

permitted under section 2721(b) of this title.” 18 U.S.C. § 2722(a). Fidelity does

not dispute that a violation of the DPPA occurred – it purchased and used Kehoe’s

personal information for a purpose that is not permitted under § 2721(b). Since a

violation occurred, Kehoe can bring this action pursuant to § 2724. Section 2724,

states, in its entirety:

Civil action
(a) Cause of action.– A person who knowingly obtains, discloses or
uses personal information, from a motor vehicle record, for a purpose
not permitted under this chapter [18 U.S.C. §§ 2721 et seq.] shall be
liable to the individual to whom the information pertains, who may
bring a civil action in a United States district court.
(b) Remedies.– The court may award –
(1) actual damages, but not less than liquidated damages in the
amount of $2,500;

7
 (2) punitive damages upon proof of willful or reckless disregard
of the law;
(3) reasonable attorney’s fees and other litigation costs
reasonably incurred; and
(4) such other preliminary and equitable relief as the court
determines to be appropriate.

18 U.S.C. § 2724. Specifically, at issue is the interpretation of sub-section (b)(1)

of § 2724. Fidelity and the district court interpret the language in sub-section

(b)(1) to mean that proving actual damages is a condition precedent to receiving

liquidated damages in the amount of $2,500.00. Kehoe, however, interprets sub-

section (b)(1) as permitting a minimum damages award of $2,500.00 regardless of

whether a plaintiff suffered any actual damages. In other words, Kehoe reads sub-

section (b)(1) in the disjunctive – that he may receive the greater of his actual

damages or $2,500.00.

At the heart of this case is a disagreement over what effect the phrase “but

not less than” and the comma preceding that phrase has on Kehoe’s ability to

recover liquidated damages. Specifically, at issue is whether the clause after the

comma is dependent upon the proof of actual damages. The placement of the

comma and “but not less than” does not necessarily mean that the second clause is

dependent upon proof of the first clause. Accord Pichler v. UNITE, 228 F.R.D.

230, 245 (E.D. Pa. 2005) (holding that pursuant to § 2724(b)(1), a plaintiff need

8
not prove actual damages to be awarded liquidated damages).3 There is no

language in sub-section (b)(1) that confines liquidated damages to people who

suffered actual damages. For example, if sub-section (b)(1) instead said

“liquidated damages in the amount of $2,500, but not less than actual damages,”

the award of actual damages would not be confined to people who should be

awarded liquidated damages.

Moreover, actual damages and liquidated damages are, by definition,

completely different types of damages. “Actual damages . . . are defined as ‘[r]eal,

substantive and just damages, or the amount awarded to a complainant in

compensation for his actual and real loss or injury.” McMillian v. F.D.I.C., 81

F.3d 1041, 1055 (11th Cir. 1996) (quoting B LACK ’S L AW D ICTIONARY (6th ed.

1991)). We have held that “liquidated damages are a contractual substitute for

actual damages [and] are paid even in the absence of proof of actual damages.”

Bender Shipbuilding & Repair Co. v. Brasileiro, 874 F.2d 1551, 1557 n.5 (11th

Cir. 1989). “[L]iquidated damages serve a particularly useful function when

damages are uncertain in nature or amount or are unmeasurable . . . [a]nd the fact

that no damages are shown is not fatal.” Rex Trailer Co. v. United States, 350 U.S.

3
The Pichler decision was issued a few days before we heard oral argument in this case.
While we obviously are not bound by the Pichler decision, we find its analysis of the issue
before us well-reasoned and persuasive.

9
148, 153, 76 S. Ct. 219, 222 (1956) (internal quotation and citation omitted).

Damages for a violation of an individual’s privacy are a quintessential example of

damages that are uncertain and possibly unmeasurable. Since liquidated damages

are an appropriate substitute for the potentially uncertain and unmeasurable actual

damages of a privacy violation, it follows that proof of actual damages is not

necessary for an award of liquidated damages. To us, the plain meaning of the

statute is clear – a plaintiff need not prove actual damages to be awarded liquidated

damages.

2. Doe v. Chao

The district court spends a large part of its decision discussing the effect of

Doe v. Chao, 540 U.S. 614, 124 S. Ct. 1204 (2004) on the remedial provision of

the DPPA. Doe v. Chao guides, but does not control, our analysis of the DPPA.

Specifically, we interpret dicta in Doe v. Chao as supporting our conclusion that

under the DPPA, proof of actual damages is not a condition precedent to a

liquidated damages award.

In Doe v. Chao, the Supreme Court analyzed the remedial provisions of the

Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a (2005) (“Privacy Act”). Pursuant to the

Privacy Act, the Government is liable for “actual damages sustained by the

individual as a result of the refusal or failure, but in no case shall a person entitled

10
to recovery receive less than the sum of $1,000.00.” 5 U.S.C. § 552a(g)(4)(a)

(emphasis added). Similar to the issue before us, at issue in Doe v. Chao, was

whether a plaintiff must prove some measure of actual damages prior to receiving a

minimum statutory award of $1,000.00. Ultimately, the Supreme Court held that

plaintiffs must prove some measure of actual damages to be awarded $1,000.00

pursuant to the Privacy Act. See 540 U.S. at 627, 124 S. Ct. at 1212.4

The Supreme Court majority’s analysis in Doe v. Chao relies heavily on the

phrase “a person entitled to recovery” as a critical limiting phrase. Id. at 621 n.2,

124 S. Ct. 1209 n.2 (“Congress used the entitled-to-recovery phrase only to

describe those entitled to the $1,000 guarantee, and it spoke of entitlement and

guarantee only after referring to an individual’s actual damages, indicating that

‘actual damages’ is a further touchstone of the entitlement.”). The relevant

language of the remedies provision in the DPPA does not contain this critical

4
The Supreme Court also supported its conclusion in Doe v. Chao with the legislative
history for the Privacy Act. Kehoe peppers his complaint and brief with quotes from the
legislative history of the DPPA. Even if we had concluded § 2724(b)(1) is ambiguous, the
legislative history is of no assistance as there is a dearth of legislative history that sheds light on
Congress’s intent when drafting § 2724(b). Accordingly, we must rely on our own interpretation
of the text of the statute. See Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Allapattah Services, Inc., __ U.S. __, 125 S.
Ct. 2611, 2626 (2005) (“As we have repeatedly held, the authoritative statement is the statutory
text, not the legislative history or any other extrinsic material. Extrinsic materials have a role in
statutory interpretation only to the extent they shed a reliable light on the enacting Legislature’s
understanding of otherwise ambiguous terms.”).

11
limiting phrase, and, thus, differs significantly from the relevant language of the

Privacy Act. Moreover, the remedial provision in the Privacy Act lacks any

reference to the term “liquidated damages.” For these reasons, the Supreme

Court’s decision in Doe v. Chao does not control our interpretation of the DPPA

remedial provision in this case.

Even though Doe v. Chao does not control our decision in this case, we are

guided by the Supreme Court’s dicta in that decision. In Doe v. Chao, the Supreme

Court suggested language similar to the language in the DPPA as a potential model

for a remedial provision in which proof of actual damages is not a prerequisite to

recovering statutory damages. See 540 U.S. at 623, 124 S. Ct. at 1210.

Specifically, the Supreme Court stated that had Congress intended § 552a(g)(4)(a)

to be read in the disjunctive, it simply could have provided that “the Government

would be liable to the individual for actual damages ‘but in no case . . . less than

the sum of $1,000.” Id. (emphasis added). Had we any doubt that § 2724(b)(1), as

written, is unambiguous, this dicta by the Supreme Court would assuage those

doubts. While there are minor differences between this suggested language and the

language actually in the DPPA, these differences do not weaken our reliance on

this suggested language. The differences are: (1) that Congress used “not” instead

of “in no case” in the DPPA; and (2) that Congress specifically called the statutory

12
damages in the DPPA “liquidated damages.” The first difference is immaterial to

our analysis, and the second, the use of the term “liquidated damages,” strengthens

our conclusion because, as stated above, liquidated damages are typically a form of

damages separate and distinct from actual damages.5 Thus, Doe v. Chao lends

support to our interpretation that § 2724(b)(1) permits an award of liquidated

damages without proof of actual damages.

3. The Rule of the Last Antecedent

The district court erroneously utilizes the rule of the last antecedent to

conclude that “the qualifying language of ‘but not less than liquidated damages in

the amount of $2,500’ would apply only to the phrase ‘actual damages’

immediately preceding it, and would not extend out as its own remedy to be

awarded regardless of actual damages.” Kehoe, 2004 WL 1659617, at *6.

According to the rule of the last antecedent, “a limiting clause or phrase . . . should

ordinarily be read as modifying only the noun or phrase that it immediately

follows.” Barnhart v. Thomas, 540 U.S. 20, 26, 124 S. Ct. 376, 380 (2003)

(citation omitted), and should not “be construed as extending to and including

others more remote.” Paschen, 296 F.3d at 1209 (citation omitted). This rule is

5
As stated by the district court in Pichler, “Congress’s decision to use the technical term
‘liquidated damages’ in the DPPA suggests that it intended to incorporate the locution’s well-
understood meaning.” Pichler, 228 F.R.D. at 244.

13
inapplicable to the remedial provision at issue in this case. B LACK ’S L AW

D ICTIONARY illustrates the appropriate application of this rule by way of the

following example: “in the phrase Texas courts, New Mexico courts, and New York

courts in the federal system, the words in the federal system might be held to

modify only New York courts and not Texas courts or New Mexico courts.”

B LACK ’S L AW D ICTIONARY 1360 (8th ed. 2004).

Thus, while the rule of the last antecedent may be appropriate for

demonstrating that “in the amount of $2,500” modifies “liquidated damages,” it

does not follow that “but not less than liquidated damages” modifies “actual

damages.” Nevertheless, even if the rule of the last antecedent did guide our

analysis of this issue, “this rule is not an absolute and can assuredly be overcome

by other indicia of meaning.” Barnhart, 540 U.S. at 26, 124 S. Ct. at 380.

4. Other Privacy Statutes

The district court uses the disjunctive language in the Electronic Privacy

Communications Act (“ECPA”), 18 U.S.C. § 2520, and in 26 U.S.C. § 7431(c),

which provides civil remedies for the unauthorized disclosure of tax return

information, to illustrate that Congress knows how to draft damages provisions that

award liquidated or statutory damages in the absence of any actual damages. After

comparing the relevant text of these statutes to the DPPA, the district court

14
concludes: “The DPPA’s language does not make the clear distinction between

actual damages and statutory damages made by both the ECPA and Section 7431. .

. . The unwillingness of Congress to adopt this clear language when drafting the

DPPA shows that it did not intend to allow plaintiffs without actual damages to

receive the $2,500 liquidated damages award.” Kehoe, 2004 WL 1659617, at *7.

We are not comfortable with this conclusion.

As stated above, when interpreting a statute, we operate under the

assumption that Congress says what it means and means what it says. See Harry,

291 F.3d at 770. However, this does not mean that it is always appropriate to put

any weight on what Congress chooses not to say. There may be many ways to

verbalize the same point and just because Congress, according to Fidelity, did not

employ the clearest language available does not mean that the language chosen

should be stripped of its plain meaning.

On appeal, Fidelity cites the text and construction of the remedial provisions

of five privacy statutes (including the ECPA) to support its interpretation of the

DPPA. These privacy statutes are: 18 U.S.C. § 2710(c)(2)(A) (Video Privacy

Protection Act or “VPPA”); 18 U.S.C. §§ 2520(c)(1)(A), (c)(1)(B) & (c)(2)(B)

(ECPA); 47 U.S.C. § 551(f)(2)(A) (Cable Communications Policy Act or

“CCPA”); 47 U.S.C. § 227(b)(3)(B) (Telephone Consumer Protection Act); and 12

15
U.S.C. § 3417(a)(1) (The Right to Financial Privacy Act). Of these five privacy

statutes, only two have remedial provisions sufficiently similar to the language in

the DPPA: the VPPA and the CCPA. While there is no guiding case authority

squarely addressing the relevant similar provision in the VPPA,6 a district court

previously addressed the relevant provision in the CCPA. See Warner v. American

Cablevision of Kansas City, 699 F. Supp. 851, 858-59 (D. Kan. 1988). Consistent

with our conclusion in this case, the Warner court held that § 551(f)(2)(A) does not

require proof of actual damages as a condition precedent to awarding liquidated

damages.7

Having considered the plain text of the DPPA’s remedial provision, we

conclude that a plaintiff need not prove actual damages to recover liquidated

damages. Accordingly, we reverse the district court’s order granting summary

6
Kehoe cites Dirkes v. Borough of Runnemede, 936 F. Supp. 235, 239 n.4 (D.N.J. 1996)
in support of the interpretation that this language does not require proof of actual harm.
However, any reference to this issue in Dirkes was purely dicta. Further, any statement that the
district court in New Jersey may have made in Dirkes has been weakened since the Sixth Circuit
recently expressly rejected the Dirkes court’s reasoning regarding who could be sued under
VPPA (the issue in Dirkes). See Daniel v. Cantrell, 375 F.3d 377, 383 n.3 (6th Cir. 2004)
(stating “[w]e do not know what statute the court in Dirkes was reading”), cert. denied, 125 S.
Ct. 874 (U.S. Jan. 10, 2005). To date, no court has expressly addressed whether liquidated
damages are recoverable under VPPA without showing actual harm.
7
We would be remiss if we did not point out that there are other statutes in which
Congress included similar remedial provisions. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000aa-6(f) (Privacy Protection
Act); 47 U.S.C. § 338(i)(7); 50 U.S.C. §§ 1810 & 1828. We could not locate any guiding case
authority interpreting the relevant remedial language of these statutes.

16
judgment in Fidelity’s favor.

B. Impact of Our Decision

Having concluded that proof of actual damages is not necessary for an award

of liquidated damages, we turn to the impact that this conclusion will have on this

case and future litigation filed pursuant to the DPPA in this Circuit. While we

have devoted a significant portion of this opinion to the words in sub-section

(b)(1), we have not yet touched the four powerful words preceding that sub-

section.

Section 2724(b) begins, “[t]he Court may award.” 18 U.S.C. § 2724(b)

(emphasis added). The use of the word “may” suggests that the award of any

damages is permissive and discretionary. See DirecTV, 371 F.3d at 818

(concluding that the district court correctly determined that liquidated damages

under the ECPA are discretionary). “This common-sense principle of statutory

construction is by no means invariable, however, and can be defeated by

indications of legislative intent to the contrary or obvious inferences from the

structure and purpose of the statute.” Id. at 817 (quoting United States v. Rodgers,

461 U.S. 677, 706, 103 S. Ct. 2132 (1983)). Since there is neither legislative

history nor obvious inferences from the structure that suggests a contrary intent, we

conclude that the use of the word “may” implies a degree of discretion. See id.

17
Thus, the district court, in its discretion, may fashion what it deems to be an

appropriate award. Among the options for the district court is the option to award

“actual damages, but not less than liquidated damages in the amount of $2,500.”

In fashioning an appropriate award, the district court may also consider the other

forms of relief that are available and were requested by Kehoe – punitive damages,

reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, and the destruction of all of Kehoe’s personal

information illegally obtained from motor vehicle records.8

IV. CONCLUSION

A plaintiff need not prove actual damages to recover liquidated damages for

a violation of the DPPA. Since the district court reached the opposite conclusion,

we reverse the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of

8
Kehoe contends that his general prayer for “such other relief as the Court deems
appropriate” in his complaint is sufficient to invoke the district court’s equitable jurisdiction to
award any appropriate form of injunctive relief. He suggests that this language tracks the
language in the DPPA. The relevant language in the DPPA is “such other preliminary and
equitable relief as the court determines to be appropriate.” 18 U.S.C. § 2724(b)(4) (emphasis
added). Kehoe’s general prayer does not contain “preliminary and equitable.” Instead, Kehoe’s
entire argument seems to rest on the interpretation of a similarly vague general relief clause in
Covad Communications Co. v. Bellsouth Corp., 314 F.3d 1282, 1285 n.13 (11th Cir. 2002). Not
only is this opinion to which Kehoe cites a dissent from a denial rehearing en banc, but the
footnote to which Kehoe cites is clearly dicta.
In Rosen v. Cascade Int’l, Inc., we “reject[ed] the [plaintiffs-]appellees’ suggestion that
they successfully invoked the district court’s equitable jurisdiction through their requests for any
additional relief as may appear “just and proper” at the conclusion of [the] complaint.” 21 F.3d
1520, 1526 n.12 (11th Cir. 1994). “The mere incantation of such boilerplate language does not
convert a legal cause of action into a legitimate request for equitable relief.” Id. Nevertheless,
Kehoe did specifically request the destruction of his personal information as a form of injunctive
relief. Thus, the district court should address this request for relief on remand.

18
Fidelity and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.
