9 Additional Cases Involving MOVEit Data Breach Transfered to MDL in Mass. Court

Nine cases from eight districts were transferred to U.S. District Court for Massachusetts in Boston for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings in In Re: MoveIT Customer Data Security Breach Litigation, said conditional transfer order 21 (docket 3083) from the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation Monday. Some 166 actions involving Progress Software Corp.’s May data breach have been transferred to the Massachusetts court and assigned to U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs. Other defendants in the nine cases are Sutter Health, Pension Benefit Information, HealthCare Services, Radius Global Solutions, Aristocrat Technologies and Columbia Banking Systems. The cases all involve questions of fact that are common to the previously transferred actions, said the JPML.
