18 More Cases Are Transferred to Mass. District Court in MOVEit MDL

Eighteen tagalong actions in In re: MOVEit Customer Data Security Breach Litigation were transferred Wednesday to U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs for Massachusetts for pretrial consolidation, said the U.S. Panel on Multidistrict Litigation’s (JPML) conditional transfer order (CTO-6) (docket 3083). The transmittal of the order will be stayed seven days from entry in the court. If any party files a notice of opposition within the seven-day period, the stay will be continued until further order of the JPML, said the order. Also Wednesday, CTO-2 was finalized when no notices of opposition were filed in either of the two cases, Kennedy v. Genworth Financial or Bailey v. Genworth Financial. In addition, counsel for defendant TMG Health notified the JPML Wednesday of two potential tagalong actions in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania: Maria Izbicki v. TMG Health and Tama Herman v. TMG Health. Since Oct. 4, when the JPML transferred five cases to Massachusetts federal court, 66 actions have been transferred to the district under Judge Burroughs.
