Freestone, 520 U.S. 329 ( 1997 ) BLESSING, DIRECTOR, ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC SECURITY v. FREESTONE ET AL.

CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT No. 95-1441. Argued January 6, 1997-Decided April 21, 1997 Respondents, five Arizona mothers whose children are eligible for state child support services under Title IV -D of the Social Security Act, filed this 42 U. S. C. 1983 suit against petitioner, the director of the state child support agency, claiming, among other things, that they properly applied for child support services ; that, despite their good faith efforts to cooperate, the agency never took adequate steps to obtain child support payments for them ; that these omissions were largely attributable to staff shortages and other structural defects in the State 's program ; and that these systemic failures violated their individual rights under Title IV-D to have all mandated services delivered in substantial compliance with the title and its implementing regulations. They requested broad relief, including a declaratory judgment that the Arizona program 's operation violates Title IV -D provisions creating rights in them that are enforceable through a XXXX983 action, and an injunction requiring the director to achieve substantial compliance with Title IV-D throughout all programmatic operations. The District Court granted summary judgment for petitioner, but the Ninth Circuit reversed. Without distinguishing among the numerous provisions of the complex Title IV-D program or the many rights those provisions might have created, the latter court held that respondents had an enforceable individual right to have the State achieve " substantial compliance '' with Title IV-D. It also disagreed with the District Court 's conclusion that Congress had foreclosed private Title IV-D enforcement actions by authorizing the Secretary of Health and Human Services ( Secretary ) to audit and cut off funds to States whose programs do not substantially comply with Title IV-D 's requirements Held : Title IV-D does not give individuals a federal right to force a state agency to substantially comply with Title IV-D. Pp.340-349.

( a ) A plaintiff seeking 1983 redress must assert the violation of a federal right, not merely of federal law. Golden State Transit Corp. v. Los Angeles, 493 U. S. 103, 106. Three principal factors determine whether a statutory provision creates a privately enforceable right : ( 1 ) whether the plaintiff is an intended beneficiary of the statute ; ( 2 ) whether the plaintiff 's asserted interests are not so vague and amor-phous as to be beyond the competence of the judiciary to enforce ; and ( 3 ) whether the statute imposes a binding obligation on the State. See, e. g., Wilder v. Virginia Hospital Assn., 496 U. S. 498, 509. Even if a plaintiff demonstrates such a right, however, there is only a rebuttable presumption that it is enforceable under 1983. Dismissal is proper if Congress specifically foreclosed a 1983 remedy, Smith v. Robinson, 468 U. S. 992, 1005, n. 9, 1003, either expressly, by forbidding recourse to 1983 in the statute itself, or impliedly, by creating a comprehensive enforcement scheme that is incompatible with individual 1983 enforcement, Livadas v. Bradshaw, 512 U. S. 107, 133. pp. 340-341.

( b ) Respondents have not established that Title IV-D gives them individually enforceable federal rights. In prior cases, the Court has been able to determine whether or not a statute created such rights because the plaintiffs articulated, and lower courts evaluated, welldefined claims. See, e. g., Wright v. Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority, 479 U. S. 418, 430. Here, respondents have not identified with particularity the rights they claim, and the Ninth Circuit has not engaged in the requisite methodical inquiry. That court erred in apparently holding that individuals have an enforceable right to " substantial compliance '' with Title IV-D in all respects. The statutory " substantial compliance '' requirement, see, e. g., 42 U. S. C. 609 ( a ) ( 8 ) ( 1994 ed., Supp. II ), does not give rise to individual rights ; it was not intended to benefit individual children and custodial parents, but is simply a yardstick for the Secretary to measure the systemwide performance of a State 's Title IV-D program, allowing her to increase the frequency of audits and reduce the State 's federal grant upon a finding of substantial noncompliance. The Court of Appeals also erred in taking a blanket approach to determining whether Title IV-D creates rights : It is readily apparent that many of the provisions of that multifaceted statutory scheme, including its " substantial compliance '' standard and data processing, staffing, and organizational requirements, do not fit any of the traditional criteria for identifying statutory rights. Although this Court does not foreclose the possibility that some Title IV-D provisions give rise to individual rights, the Ninth Circuit did not separate out the particular rights it believed arise from the statutory scheme, the complaint is less than clear in this regard, and it is not certain whether respondents sought any relief more specific than a declaration that their " rights '' were being violated and an injunction forcing petitioner to " substantially comply '' with all of Title IV-D 's provisions. This defect is best addressed by sending the case back for the District Court to construe the complaint in the first instance, in order to determine exactly what rights, considered in their most concrete, specific form, respondents are asserting. Only by manageably breaking down the 42 U.S. Code 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officers judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia.

Such rules shall provide for participation in such procedure by independent or governmental entities.

( 3 ) One or more warrantors may establish an informal dispute settlement procedure which meets the requirements of the Commissions rules under paragraph ( 2 ).

If ( A ) a warrantor establishes such a procedure, ( B ) such procedure, and its implementation, meets the requirements of such rules, and ( C ) he incorporates in a written warranty a requirement that the consumer resort to such procedure before pursuing any legal remedy under this section respecting such warranty, then ( i ) the consumer may not commence a civil action ( other than a class action ) under subsection ( d ) of this section unless he initially resorts to such procedure ; and ( ii ) a class of consumers may not proceed in a class action under subsection ( d ) except to the extent the court determines necessary to establish the representative capacity of the named plaintiffs, unless the named plaintiffs ( upon notifying the defendant that they are named plaintiffs in a class action with respect to a warranty obligation ) initially resort to such procedure.

Upon proper showing that, weighing the equities and considering the Commissions or Attorney Generals likelihood of ultimate success, such action would be in the public interest and after notice to the defendant, a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction may be granted without bond. In the case of an action brought by the Commission, if a complaint under section 45 of this title is not filed within such period ( not exceeding 10 days ) as may be specified by the court after the issuance of the temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction, the order or injunction shall be dissolved by the court and be of no further force and effect. Any suit shall be brought in the district in which such person resides or transacts business. Whenever it appears to the court that the ends of justice require that other persons should be parties in the action, the court may cause them to be summoned whether or not they reside in the district in which the court is held, and to that end process may be served in any district.

( 2 ) For the purposes of this subsection, the term deceptive warranty means ( A ) a written warranty which ( i ) contains an affirmation, promise, description, or representation which is either false or fraudulent, or which, in light of all of the circumstances, would mislead a reasonable individual exercising due care; or ( ii ) fails to contain information which is necessary in light of all of the circumstances, to make the warranty not misleading to a reasonable individual exercising due care; or ( B ) a written warranty created by the use of such terms as guaranty or warranty, if the terms and conditions of such warranty so limit its scope and application as to deceive a reasonable individual.

( 2 ) If a consumer finally prevails in any action brought under paragraph ( 1 ) of this subsection, he may be allowed by the court to recover as part of the judgment a sum equal to the aggregate amount of cost and expenses ( including attorneys fees based on actual time expended ) determined by the court to have been reasonably incurred by the plaintiff for or in connection with the commencement and prosecution of such action, unless the court in its discretion shall determine that such an award of attorneys fees would be inappropriate.

( 3 ) No claim shall be cognizable in a suit brought under paragraph ( 1 ) ( B ) of this subsection ( A ) if the amount in controversy of any individual claim is less than the sum or value of {$25.00} ; ( B ) if the amount in controversy is less than the sum or value of {$50000.00} ( exclusive of interests and costs ) computed on the basis of all claims to be determined in this suit ; or ( C ) if the action is brought as a class action, and the number of named plaintiffs is less than one hundred.
