Defendant’s final claims of error relate to the trial court’s award of damages under Vermont’s Consumer Fraud Act, 9 V.S.A. § 2451 et seq., for its failure to obtain cable television service for the condominium. First, defendant attacks the court’s holding that the “private action” provision of the Act is applicable here, contending that the provision does not apply to purchases of residential real property. Second, defendant argues that, irrespective of the Act’s applicability, the punitive damages award was improper because the court did not find that the requisite “actual malice” had been established.
