Description
Omaha Auto Auction (OAA) appeals the finding of the district court that OAA violated the odometer disclosure provisions of the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act. 15 U.S.C. ç 1981 et seq. (Disclosure Act). The Act and the regulations promulgated under its authority require a transferor to fill out a disclosure form which gives the odometer reading and certifies that it is accurate to the best of the transferors knowledge. 15 U.S.C. ç 1988 (1976); 49 C.F.R. çç 580.1 to 580.6. OAA also complains that the attorneys fees award of $11,926.40 to plaintiffs, Teresa and Jean Tusa, is too high. The Tusas cross-appeal, complaining that the attorneys fees award is too low. We affirm the judgment of the district court on the issue of OAAs liability, but we reverse the part of the judgment relating to the attorneys fees and remand the case to the district court with instructions to amend its judgment to make the attorneys fees award $8,000.
