Comcast requested Wednesday that In Re: Citrix Software Customer Data Security Breach Litigation be renamed "In Re: Citrix Bleed Vulnerability And Comcast Breach Litigation" to "accurately reflect the parties and issues,” in a motion (docket 3099) for miscellaneous relief before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML). Comcast also wrote in opposition to a de facto motion for miscellaneous relief filed by Citrix in its response to a motion for transfer.
