S.C. Courts' Data Scraping Ban Case Is Settled

A federal court dismissed litigation on South Carolina courts’ data scraping ban. The U.S. District Court for South Carolina dismisses the case without costs or prejudice because the parties say the action was settled, said Judge Mary Geiger Lewis in a Wednesday order in case 3:22-cv-01007. Lewis ruled in January to proceed with the constitutional challenge by NAACP and American Civil Liberties Union. The court didn’t detail the settlement. The parties didn’t comment on Thursday.
