Question Presented (from Petition)

The Driver's Privacy Protection Act of 1994 makes it "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).

Did the Fifth Circuit err in finding that Petitioners' allegation that Respondent exposed their DPPA protected personal information to public view was insufficient to allege a disclosure within the meaning of the DPPA?
