Data Breach Suits Find Easier Path With DC Circ. Ruling
Partner David Anthony is quoted in a Law360 story about a recent circuit court ruling in a data breach case involving health insurer CareFirst. The case speaks to the question made more contentious since the Spokeo v. Robins finding: “Must the alleged harm have already come to pass, or must it only be substantially likely?” Anthony is quoted, saying, “The CareFirst decision reflects a more generous interpretation of the degree of harm required to satisfy Article III standing requirements. But not all courts agree with this approach.”
