Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Florida.
Before KRAVITCH and BIRCH, Circuit Judges, and GODBOLD, Senior
Circuit Judge.
KRAVITCH, Circuit Judge:

This appeal arises out of Appellants' First and Fourteenth Amendment challenge
to certain rules promulgated by the Florida Bar governing attorney advertising.
Appellants appeal from the district court's order granting Appellees'1 motion for
summary judgment. The issues we address today are narrow: whether
Appellants have standing to challenge the rules, and if so, who bears the burden
of proving the constitutionality of the rules? We also must determine whether
summary judgment was proper on a vagueness challenge to one of the rules.
We hold that Appellants have standing to bring their as-applied challenge to the
rules and that Appellees bear the burden of proving that the rules are
constitutional; we also remand to the district court for a determination of
whether summary judgment is appropriate with respect to Appellants'
vagueness challenge. Accordingly, we REVERSE the grant of summary
judgment and REMAND for proceedings consistent with this opinion.

The Florida Supreme Court adopted amended rules promulgated by the Florida
Bar, which regulate attorney advertising. See The Florida Bar: Petition to
Amend the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar--Advertising Issues, 571 So.2d
451 (Fla.1990). Appellants Richard R. Mulholland and David W. Singer are
members of the Florida Bar. They brought suit in federal district court, pursuant
to 42 U.S.C. Secs. 1983, 1988, and 28 U.S.C. Secs. 2201-02, seeking an
injunction prohibiting the enforcement of certain rules and seeking a
declaratory judgment that these rules are unconstitutional.2 Specifically,
Appellants challenge the following rules:3 (1) the "testimonial rule,"
prohibiting testimonials in advertising;4 (2) the "dramatization rule," prohibiting
dramatizations in advertising;5 (3) the "single voice rule," mandating that in
television and radio, only one voice be used, with no background sound other
than instrumental music and that the voice not be one of a recognizable
celebrity;6 and (4) the "illustration rule."7 Appellants assert that the first three
rules infringe upon their First Amendment rights because they operate as a total
ban on a method of advertising, regardless of whether the content of an
individual advertisement using that method is misleading or otherwise
improper. In their complaint, Appellants allege that they have in the past used
advertisements which would now be violative of these three rules and would
like to continue to do so.8 In its answer, the Florida Bar admitted that "some of
the plaintiffs have used advertisements that would be violative of the present
Rules Regulating The Florida Bar," and that "plaintiffs are subject to potential
discipline in accord with the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar if they use
advertisements not in compliance with the Rules."9

In addition to challenging three rules as unconstitutional prohibitions on certain


advertising methods, Appellants also contend that the illustration rule is
unconstitutionally vague in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment because it

does not give sufficient notice as to which illustrations violate the rule.
Appellants aver in their complaint that "[t]hey wish to use illustrations but are
unsure of when one becomes 'factually substantiated.' "
4

Following extensive discovery, Appellants filed a motion in limine seeking to


place the burden of demonstrating that the rules are justified upon Appellees.
The district court held that Appellants sought a facial invalidation of the rules,
as they had not submitted any proposed advertisements to the court for review,
and thus, Appellants bore the burden of "convinc[ing] this court that facial
invalidation is appropriate because the rules can never be constitutionally
applied under any circumstances."

Appellants conceded that they could not meet this burden, as the state clearly
could ban advertisements using the prohibited methods if the content of an
individual advertisement was misleading. 10

Following this concession, the district court granted Appellees' motion for
summary judgment, reasoning that because Appellants sought to mount a facial
challenge to the rules, there was no "justiciable controversy on the record as
fashioned by Plaintiffs' complaint."

I.
7

As a threshold issue, we must determine whether Appellants have standing to


bring this suit. "Article III ... gives the federal courts jurisdiction over only
'cases and controversies,' and the doctrine of standing serves to identify those
disputes which are appropriately resolved through the judicial process."
Whitmore v. Arkansas, 495 U.S. 149, 155, 110 S.Ct. 1717, 1722, 109 L.Ed.2d
135 (1990).

Whether Appellants have standing to challenge the rules is a legal issue subject
to de novo review. Region 8 Forest Serv. Timber Purchasers Council v. Alcock,
993 F.2d 800, 806 (11th Cir.1993), cert. denied, --- U.S. ----, 114 S.Ct. 683, 126
L.Ed.2d 651 (1994). When an attack on standing occurs via a motion for
summary judgment, the plaintiff "must 'set forth' by affidavit or other evidence
'specific facts' ... which for purposes of the summary judgment motion will be
taken to be true." Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 561, 112 S.Ct.
2130, 2137, 119 L.Ed.2d 351 (1992) (quoting Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(e)).

To establish standing, "[a] plaintiff must allege personal injury fairly traceable
to the defendant's allegedly unlawful conduct." Allen v. Wright, 468 U.S. 737,

751, 104 S.Ct. 3315, 3324, 82 L.Ed.2d 556 (1984).11 A plaintiff stating that he
"intends to engage in a specific course of conduct 'arguably affected with a
constitutional interest,' ... does not have to expose himself to enforcement to be
able to challenge the law." ACLU v. The Florida Bar, 999 F.2d 1486, 1492
(11th Cir.1993) (quoting Babbitt v. United Farm Workers Nat'l Union, 442 U.S.
289, 298, 99 S.Ct. 2301, 2308-09, 60 L.Ed.2d 895 (1979)). Rather, a plaintiff
has standing if he "demonstrate[s] 'a realistic danger of sustaining direct injury
as a result of the statute's operation or enforcement.' " Graham v. Butterworth, 5
F.3d 496, 499 (11th Cir.1993) (quoting ACLU v. The Florida Bar, 999 F.2d at
1492), cert. denied, --- U.S. ----, 114 S.Ct. 2136, 128 L.Ed.2d 866 (1994). This
showing may be accomplished by an allegation "that either (1) he was
threatened with prosecution; (2) prosecution is likely; or (3) there is a credible
threat of prosecution." ACLU v. The Florida Bar, 999 F.2d at 1492.
10

Appellants allege that they had used advertisements in the past that violate the
new rules, and that, but for the adoption of the rules, they would continue to do
so. Appellees, both in their answer and in the joint pre-trial stipulation, admit
that Appellants advertise via television, radio, newspapers, and the telephone
book yellow pages and that Appellants "have used advertisements that would
be violative of the present Rules Regulating The Florida Bar." Appellees also
admit that Appellants "are subject to potential discipline in accord with the
Rules Regulating The Florida Bar if they use advertisements not in compliance
with the Rules." After considering both the pleadings and the admissions in this
case, we conclude that Appellants have shown that they face a credible threat of
prosecution and thus have standing to bring this claim. See id. (when "alleged
injury is one of self-censorship, the likelihood of disciplinary action by the Bar
... is an important factor in determining whether [plaintiff] reasonably believed
that he had to forgo what he considered to be constitutionally protected speech
in order to avoid disciplinary charges being brought against him.").

11

Our conclusion finds support in similar cases in which a plaintiff asserted that
but for the challenged rule, he or she would engage in conduct prohibited by the
restriction.12

12

For example, in United States v. Edge Broadcasting Co., --- U.S. ----, 113 S.Ct.
2696, 125 L.Ed.2d 345 (1993), the Court heard a challenge to a federal statute
prohibiting radio stations licensed in states which outlaw the lottery from
advertising that prohibited activity.13 Edge alleged that it lost a substantial
amount of money because its fear of prosecution "caused it to refrain from
broadcasting any advertisements promoting the Virginia lottery." Edge
Broadcasting Co. v. United States, 732 F.Supp. 633, 635 (E.D.Va.1990). Edge
had standing to pursue its claim even though it had "not been threatened with

prosecution." Id.
13

Similarly, in Edenfield v. Fane, --- U.S. ----, ----, 113 S.Ct. 1792, 1797, 123
L.Ed.2d 543 (1993), the Court entertained Fane's challenge to a Florida law
prohibiting certified public accountants from direct, in-person solicitation of
clients; Fane had alleged that "but for the prohibition, he would seek clients
through personal solicitation." 14

14

Likewise, in McHenry v. The Florida Bar, 21 F.3d 1038 (11th Cir.1994), cert.
granted, --- U.S. ----, 115 S.Ct. 42, 129 L.Ed.2d 937 (1994), this court permitted
McHenry, a Florida lawyer, to challenge the Florida Bar's rule prohibiting
lawyers from direct mail solicitation in personal injury and wrongful death
cases within thirty days of an accident or disaster. This court implicitly held
that McHenry had standing because he engaged in the prohibited conduct
before the rule was promulgated and asserted "that, but for its prohibition, [he]
would send such letters within thirty days of an accident or disaster."15 Id. at
1040. See also Meese v. Keene, 481 U.S. 465, 472-73, 107 S.Ct. 1862, 1867,
95 L.Ed.2d 415 (1987) (holding that plaintiff has standing to challenge Foreign
Agents Registration Act's use of term "political propaganda"; if plaintiff
showed films so designated, he would be subject to adverse consequences such
as loss of personal and professional reputation); Butterworth, 5 F.3d at 498-99
(holding that plaintiff, a judicial candidate, had standing to challenge statute
regulating campaigning, when he alleged that he engaged in conduct statute
apparently prohibited in prior election and that he intended to use similar
advertisements in reelection campaign; "a credible threat of prosecution exist[s]
because [he] intend[ed] to engage in arguably protected conduct, which the
statute seemed to proscribe"); ACLU v. The Florida Bar, 999 F.2d at 1492
(plaintiff had standing to challenge Florida Bar Rule when he showed a
reasonable fear of disciplinary action).

15

In light of this precedent and The Florida Bar's admission that Appellants face
potential disciplinary action should they use the advertisements that they wish
to use, we conclude that Appellants have standing to bring this suit.

II.
16

Following the motion in limine, the district court issued an order holding that
Appellants bore the burden of proving that the rules could never be
constitutionally applied. Appellants conceded that they could not prove that the
rules could never be constitutionally applied, as it is clear that the state has the
power to prohibit advertisements that are misleading in content, regardless of
their form.16 The district court placed the burden of proof on Appellants

because Appellants had characterized their claim as a facial challenge to the


rules. We hold, however, that Appellants brought an as-applied challenge to the
rules.17
17

A facial challenge is one that seeks to invalidate a law "even though [the law's]
application in the case under consideration may be constitutionally
unobjectionable." Forsyth County, Georgia v. The Nationalist Movement, --U.S. ----, ----, 112 S.Ct. 2395, 2401, 120 L.Ed.2d 101 (1992). Where, as here,
plaintiffs seek to vindicate their own rights, the challenge is as-applied.18

18

For example, in Fane, the Court treated Fane's challenge to the rule banning inperson solicitation by accountants as an "as-applied" challenge, when Fane
alleged that but for the prohibition, he would engage in the prohibited behavior.
See Fane, --- U.S. at ----, 113 S.Ct. at 1805 (O'Connor, J., dissenting)
(criticizing the majority for "characterizing Fane's suit as an 'as-applied'
challenge"). See also Edge Broadcasting Co., --- U.S. at ---- & n. 3, 113 S.Ct. at
2702 & n. 3 (plaintiff mounted as-applied challenge; the district court "
[a]ssum[ed] that the advertising Edge wished to air would deal with the
Virginia lottery, a legal activity, and would not be misleading").

19

This court addressed the facial versus as-applied distinction in Abramson v.


Gonzalez, 949 F.2d 1567, 1573-74 (11th Cir.1992), and held that persons who
had not applied for a psychologist's license nonetheless were entitled to raise an
as-applied challenge to a Florida law mandating that only licensed
psychologists may hold themselves out as psychologists. In so holding, we
stated, "[i]f the constitution entitles plaintiffs to advertise in particular ways, ...
then as applied to them, the law limits ... the scope of their free expression." Id.
at 1573; see also American Library Ass'n v. Reno, 33 F.3d 78 (D.C.Cir.1994)
(although the challenged statute had not been enforced against plaintiffs,
plaintiffs sought to alleviate burdens which the statute placed on them, and
therefore, challenge was as-applied). We thus conclude that Appellants have
stated a cause of action for an as-applied challenge to the rules.19

III.
20

Where, as here, a plaintiff mounts an as-applied challenge to an alleged burden


on commercial speech, "[i]t is well established that 'the party seeking to uphold
a restriction on commercial speech carries the burden of justifying it.' " Fane, -- U.S. at ----, 113 S.Ct. at 1800 (quoting Bolger v. Youngs Drug Products
Corp., 463 U.S. 60, 71 n. 20, 103 S.Ct. 2875, 2882 n. 20, 77 L.Ed.2d 469
(1983)). Thus, the "governmental body seeking to sustain a restriction on
commercial speech must demonstrate that the harms it recites are real and that

its restriction will in fact alleviate them to a material degree."20 Id., at ----, 113
S.Ct. at 1800 (citations omitted); see also McHenry, 21 F.3d at 1042 ("the Bar
must demonstrate that its thirty-day ban serves a substantial government interest
and is narrowly tailored to achieve that interest"); Reno, 33 F.3d at 83
(rejecting state's argument that plaintiff had to show that statute was
"unconstitutional in every conceivable application," because plaintiff's
challenge was as-applied, and not facial).
21

We express no opinion as to whether the state can meet its burden of justifying
the rules. Rather, we REVERSE the district court's order granting Appellees'
motion for summary judgment and REMAND for proceedings consistent with
this opinion.

IV.
22

Appellants also assert that the district court erred in granting summary
judgment with respect to their claim that the illustration rule is
unconstitutionally vague.

23

Appellees first argue that vagueness challenges are impermissible in the


context of commercial speech.21 Alternatively, they assert that the district court
properly granted summary judgment because on the merits, the rule is not
unconstitutionally vague.

24

We reject Appellees' contention that vagueness attacks on rules regulating


commercial speech are not permitted. Although the Supreme Court has held the
overbreadth doctrine22 inappropriate in commercial speech cases,23 the Court
has not limited the reach of the vagueness doctrine in the same way. To the
contrary, the Supreme Court has squarely entertained a vagueness challenge to
an advertising restriction on pure commercial speech. See Posadas de Puerto
Rico Associates v. Tourism Co. of Puerto Rico, 478 U.S. 328, 339, 347, 106
S.Ct. 2968, 2975-76, 2980, 92 L.Ed.2d 266 (1986). We thus find Appellees'
first contention without merit.

25

We decline to resolve the question of whether summary judgment was


appropriate on the merits of Appellants' claim. In its order granting Appellees'
motion for summary judgment, the trial court did not address Appellants'
vagueness challenge, apparently finding it unnecessary to do so in light of its
holding that there was no justiciable case. Because we hold that Appellants
have standing to bring this as-applied attack on the rules, we remand to the
district court for a determination of whether summary judgment was

appropriate on Appellants' vagueness challenge to the illustration rule. See


Knight v. Columbus, Georgia, 19 F.3d 579, 583 n. 3 (11th Cir.) (where district
court granted summary judgment on statute of limitations ground, "for
prudential reasons," appellate court would not address claim on the merits, but
rather would remand to the district court), cert. denied, --- U.S. ----, 115 S.Ct.
318, 130 L.Ed.2d 280 (1994).
26

For the reasons expressed in this opinion, we REVERSE the district court's
grant of summary judgment and REMAND for proceedings consistent with this
opinion.

27

GODBOLD, Senior Circuit Judge, concurring dubitante:

28

This case was brought as a facial attack on lawyer advertising rules and was
presented to the district court as such, and is presented to this court as such:

29 ruling [the district court's summary judgment] conflicts with recent commercial
That
speech decisions of the United States Supreme Court, which permitted facial
constitutional challenges to commercial speech regulations. (Citing Edenfield v. Fain
[Fane, --- U.S. ----], 113 S.Ct. 1792 [123 L.Ed.2d 543] (1993), and U.S. v. Edge
Broadcasting Co. [--- U.S. ----, ----], 113 S.Ct. 2696, 2706 [125 L.Ed.2d 345] (1993).
30

Appellant's brief p. ii.

31

The district court responded to the case as presented. Despite the presentation
in both courts as a facial challenge the court has recharacterized the case as an
"as-applied" attack. I concur in that result because, as best I can tell, it is
required of us, but I do so dubiously because I cannot discern with any degree
of confidence what, if anything, is left of the facial/as-applied distinction in
commercial speech cases, especially in the field of regulation of lawyer
advertising.

Godbold, Senior Circuit Judge, dissents from the denial of the petition for
rehearing

Appellees are: The Florida Bar and John F. Harkness, Jr., Executive Director of
the Florida Bar, in his official capacity
James Fox Miller, President of the Florida Bar, was a defendant in the action
but was dismissed by stipulation prior to summary judgment.

The Supreme Court of Florida was also a defendant; it was dismissed, however,
prior to summary judgment on the ground that the Eleventh Amendment barred
suit. The individual justices of the Supreme Court of Florida, named in their
official rule making capacity, remain named defendants.
2

Harry N. Jacobs was also a plaintiff in the suit. He was dismissed by


stipulation, however, prior to the entry of summary judgment

Initially, Appellants also challenged other rules. During the course of


discovery, however, they voluntarily abandoned some of their claims. We need
only address those claims remaining at the time when the district judge granted
summary judgment in Appellees' favor

Rule 4-7.1 provides:


A lawyer shall not make or permit to be made a false, misleading, deceptive or
unfair communication about the lawyer or the lawyer's services. A
communication violates this rule if it ...
(d) contains a testimonial.

Rule 4-7.2(e) states, "[t]here shall be no dramatization in any advertisement in


any medium."

Rule 4-7.2(b) provides, in pertinent part:


Advertisements on the electronic media such as television and radio ... shall be
articulated by a single voice, with no background sound other than instrumental
music. The voice may be that of a full-time employee of the firm whose
services are advertised; it shall not be that of a celebrity whose voice is
recognizable to the public.

Rule 4-7.2(f) provides: "Illustrations used in advertisements shall present


information which can be factually substantiated and is not merely selflaudatory."

Appellants allege the following in their complaint:


Each of the Plaintiffs has used advertisements which would now be violative of
the new Rules Regulating The Florida Bar with regard to lawyer advertising.
Each Plaintiff wishes to continue using his former advertisements, or desires to
produce and use new advertisements which are, or may be violative of the new
Rules. Specifically, the Plaintiffs wish to use, inter alia, non-misleading
dramatizations, testimonials with truthful commentary, more than a single

voice, spokespersons who are not full-time employees of his firm, voices which
may be recognizable to the public, [and] music accompanied by words.
9

It is undisputed that Mulholland's law firm spent approximately $610,000 on


advertising from April 1991 through April 1992, and that Singer's law firm
spent approximately $445,000 on advertising between January 1, 1991 and
April 22, 1992

10

Appellants could not show, for example, that the dramatization rule could
never be constitutionally applied, because it is clear that the state has the power
to ban all misleading advertisements--including misleading dramatizations

11

A plaintiff must also show that the requested relief would remedy the injury.
Id.; see also E.F. Hutton & Co., Inc. v. Hadley, 901 F.2d 979, 984 (11th
Cir.1990) ("a demonstration must [also] be made that the requested relief likely
will redress the injury"). There is no question in this case that an injunction and
declaratory judgment would remedy the injury. We therefore address only
whether Appellants allege an injury and whether that injury is "fairly traceable"
to the rules

12

Although in some of these cases, the holdings concerning standing are not
explicit, appellate courts have an independent obligation to consider standing
even when not raised by the parties. See FW/PBS, Inc. v. City of Dallas, 493
U.S. 215, 229-30, 110 S.Ct. 596, 607, 107 L.Ed.2d 603 (1990) ("The federal
courts are under an independent obligation to examine their own jurisdiction,
and standing 'is perhaps the most important of [the jurisdictional] doctrines.' ")
(quoting Wright, 468 U.S. at 750, 104 S.Ct. at 3324). We may therefore
presume, in each of these cases, an implicit holding that the plaintiffs have
standing, as the court would otherwise lack jurisdiction to hear the case

13

The plaintiff was a radio station licensed to serve North Carolina, which
prohibited the lottery. Id. at ----, 113 S.Ct. at 2699. 92.2% of Edge's listening
audience resided in Virginia and 95% of its advertising revenue derived from
Virginia, which permitted the lottery. Id. at ----, 113 S.Ct. at 2702

14

Fane had moved to Florida from New Jersey, where such solicitation was
permitted. While in New Jersey, Fane engaged in personal solicitation of
clients. Id. at ----, 113 S.Ct. at 1796

15

Further, after McHenry was disbarred for conduct unrelated to the suit, the
district court permitted Blakely, another Florida lawyer who asserted that "but
for [the Rule], he would engage in direct mail solicitation of clients during the
thirty-day period," to intervene as a plaintiff in the suit. 21 F.3d at 1041 n. 7.
We held that regardless of McHenry's disbarment, the suit was not moot

because "Blakely has standing to challenge the thirty-day ban on direct mail
advertising." Id
16

See footnote 10

17

We recognize that Appellants characterized their claim as a facial challenge.


We are not, however, bound by Appellants' designation of their claims, as the
complaint sets forth a cause of action for an as-applied challenge to the rules.
See McKinney v. Pate, 20 F.3d 1550, 1560 (11th Cir.1994) (en banc) ("Our
responsibility, however, is to examine [plaintiff's] cause of action for what it
actually is, not for what [plaintiff] would have it be," and thus court looks to
complaint to determine what claim plaintiff's allegations support), cert. denied,
--- U.S. ----, 115 S.Ct. 898, 130 L.Ed.2d 783 (1995)

18

In some circumstances, mere allegations of and an intent to engage in arguably


prohibited activity will not suffice. In this case, however, because certain
advertising methodologies are prohibited in their entirety, the court would not
benefit from Appellants' production of a nonmisleading dramatization or
testimonial; such an advertisement violates the rules regardless of the content
precisely because of the method through which the message is communicated

19

When considering an as-applied challenge to a regulation, the court is also free


to hold that the statute is unconstitutional on its face. See Members of City
Council v. Taxpayers for Vincent, 466 U.S. 789, 795-96, 104 S.Ct. 2118, 2124,
80 L.Ed.2d 772 (1984)

20

By contrast, when a plaintiff attacks a law facially, the plaintiff bears the
burden of proving that the law could never be constitutionally applied. See
Taxpayers for Vincent, 466 U.S. at 797-98, 104 S.Ct. at 2124-25 ("a holding of
facial invalidity expresses the conclusion that the statute could never be applied
in a valid manner"); New York State Club Ass'n, Inc. v. City of New York, 487
U.S. 1, 11, 108 S.Ct. 2225, 2233, 101 L.Ed.2d 1 (1988) ("to prevail on a facial
attack the plaintiff must demonstrate that the challenged law ... 'could never be
applied in a valid manner' ") (citation omitted)

21

Appellants conceded at oral argument that the rules implicate only commercial
speech

22

The overbreadth doctrine operates as an exception to the traditional rules of


standing. It allows persons not personally harmed by a rule or law to
nonetheless attack its validity. See Dimmitt v. City of Clearwater, 985 F.2d
1565, 1570-71 (11th Cir.1993)

23

See Bates v. State Bar of Arizona, 433 U.S. 350, 380-81, 97 S.Ct. 2691, 2707-

08, 53 L.Ed.2d 810 (1977); Waters v. Churchill, --- U.S. ----, ----, 114 S.Ct.
1878, 1885, 128 L.Ed.2d 686 (1994) ("the possibility that overbroad
regulations may chill commercial speech [has not] convinced us to extend the
overbreadth doctrine into the commercial speech area.")
