New Jersey Federal Judge Dismisses Data Breach Class Action Against Background Check Company
A federal judge dismissed a class action lawsuit against TABB Inc., a New Jersey background check company, because the plaintiff could not demonstrate concrete injury required for federal court standing. The dismissal centers on whether individuals whose data was exposed in a 2024 breach have legal grounds to sue.
Why it matters: Data breach plaintiffs and their counsel should track this ruling, as it raises the bar for establishing standing in breach-related federal litigation and may affect similar cases pending against background check firms and other data handlers.
