Description
This case presents several issues of first impression in this court of appeals regarding application of the Drivers Privacy Protection Act of 1994 (the DPPA), 18 U.S.C. §Â§ 2721-2725. After certifying a class to proceed against the defendant-labor union, the District Court construed certain provisions of the DPPA and granted summary judgment to all but three of the named plaintiffs (plaintiffs). The court found that the unions labor organizing activities violated plaintiffs privacy rights under the DPPA and awarded monetary and injunctive relief. However, the court granted the union summary judgment on plaintiffs claims for punitive damages and dismissed the claims of the three other plaintiffs. The court deferred judgment as to class-wide relief, awaiting appellate clarification on the novel issues raised. Both sides have appealed. We will affirm in part, vacate in part, and remand for further proceedings.
