1ST SOURCE BANK: Duboise Sues Over Security Vulnerability
---------------------------------------------------------
Sharon Duboise, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated v. 1ST SOURCE BANK and PROGRESS SOFTWARE CORPORATION, Case
No. 1:23-cv-13055-ADB (D. Mass., Dec. 12, 2023), is brought arising
out of the recent targeted cyberattack and data breach where
unauthorized third-party criminals retrieved and exfiltrated the
highly-sensitive consumer data of Plaintiff, and nearly 450,000
Class Members, via a security vulnerability in PSC's software
program, MOVEit, which is used by 1st Source to transfer sensitive
information (the "Data Breach").

As part of its business, Defendant 1st Source acquires, collects,
and stores consumers' personal data, including personally
identifying information ("PII") and sensitive financial information
(collectively, "Private Information"). According to Defendant 1st
Source, the Private Information compromised in the Data Breach
includes: customer names, dates of birth, driver's license or other
state identification card numbers, and Social Security numbers.

Despite claiming its mission is to "help our clients achieve
security," Defendant 1st Source failed to adequately safeguard
Plaintiff's and Class Members' highly sensitive Private Information
that it collected and maintained. Specifically, Defendant 1st
Source, used Defendant PSC's MOVEit software to store and transfer
the Private Information of Plaintiff and Class Members, and this
Private Information was compromised as a result of a security
vulnerability in the MOVEit software.

1st Source owed a non-delegable duty to Plaintiff and Class Members
to implement reasonable and adequate security measures to protect
their Private Information. Yet, 1st Source maintained and shared
the Private Information in a negligent and/or reckless manner. In
particular, the Private Information was maintained on computer
systems in a condition vulnerable to cyberattacks. Upon information
and belief, the mechanism of the cyberattack and potential for
improper disclosure of Plaintiff's and Class Members' Private
Information was a known risk to 1st Source, and 1st Source was
therefore on notice that failing to take steps necessary to ensure
its vendors, including Defendant PSC, properly safeguarded
Plaintiff's and Class Members' Private Information from those risks
left that Private Information in a vulnerable condition.

The Plaintiff's and Class Members' Private Information was
compromised due to Defendants' negligent and/or careless acts and
omissions and the failure to reasonably and adequately protect
Plaintiff's and Class Members' Private Information. As a result of
the Data Breach, Plaintiff and Class Members face a substantial
risk of imminent and certainly impending harm, heightened here by
the loss of Social Security numbers, a class of Private Information
which is particularly valuable to identity thieves. Plaintiff and
Class Members have and will continue to suffer injuries associated
with this risk, including but not limited to a loss of time,
mitigation expenses, and anxiety over the misuse of their Private
Information, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is a natural person, resident, and citizen of the
State of Arizona residing in Pinal County.

The Defendant 1st Source "has become the largest locally controlled
financial institution headquartered in the northern Indiana
southwestern Michigan area with nearly $8 billion in assets and
more than 1100 employees."[BN]

ALOGENT HOLDINGS: Paweski Sues Over Unsecured Personal Info
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHRISTINE PAWESKI, individually and on behalf of all others
similarly situated, Plaintiff v. ALOGENT HOLDINGS, INC., Defendant,
Case No. 1:23-cv-05705-TWT (N.D. Ga., December 12, 2023) arises
from the Defendant's failure to properly secure and safeguard
personally identifiable information (PII) against criminal hackers,
asserting claims against the Defendant for negligence, negligence
per se, delaratory judgment, and for violations of the Federal
Trade Commission Act.

Beginning on or around May 30, 2023, the notorious CL0P ransomware
gang exploited a vulnerability in the MOVEit software and accessed,
copied, and/or stole Plaintiff's and Class members' PII stored on
Alogent’s MOVEit systems and servers. Despite the data breach
occurring between May 30 and June 1, 2023, Alogent did not begin
notifying impacted individuals until on or about August 14, 2023,
over two months after the data breach occurred, says the suit.

Headquartered in the Atlanta metropolitan area in Georgia, Alogent
is a software and services company that provides financial
digitization and automation services to banks and credit unions.

BERKELEY COUNTY, SC: Fosdick Seeks Conditional Class Certification
------------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as LORETTA FOSDICK,
Individually and Behalf all others Similarly Situated, v. BERKELEY
COUNTY, Case No. 2:23-cv-03375-RMG (D.S.C.), the Plaintiffs Loretta
Fosdick and Opt In Plaintiff Allison Barry file a motion for
conditional class certification on Nov. 17, 2023, requesting the
Court conditionally certify the case and authorize notice to
putative collective action members, pursuant to section 16(b) of
the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), 29 U.S.C section 216.

The putative collective action members are current and former
Berkeley County Convenience Center Operators who allege they worked
off the clock before and after their scheduled shift resulting in
them not being paid overtime wages for all hours worked in excess
of 40 hours per week from three years prior to the date the Court
issues an order conditionally certifying the class.

The Parties request the Court order the following:

   1. Conditionally certify this action as a collective action for
      recovering overtime compensation under 29 U.S.C. section
216(b).

   2. Define the Putative Class as follows:

      All current and former Berkeley County Convenience Center
      Operators who worked off the clock before and/or after their

      scheduled shift resulting in them not being paid overtime
wages
      for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week at any
time

BLUE CROSS: Bid to Decertify Class in C.P. Suit Tossed
------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as C. P., by and through his
parents, Patricia Pritchard and Nolle Pritchard, S.L., by and
through her parents, S.R. and R.L.; EMMETT JONES, individually and
on behalf of others similarly situated; and PATRICIA PRITCHARD,
individually, v. BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF ILLINOIS, Case No.
3:20-cv-06145-RJB (W.D. Wash.), the Hon. Judge Robert J. Bryan
entered an order denying Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois's
motion to decertify the class.

The Clerk is directed to send uncertified copies of this Order to
all counsel of record and to any party appearing pro se at said
party's last known address.

Blue Cross’s motion to decertify the class based on its
contention that retrospective relief destroys compliance with Rule
23 should be denied. The retrospective equitable injunctive relief
requested does not require that the class be decertified.

The case concerns Blue Cross and its discrimination. Other parties'
conduct may be the subject before other courts, or may be based on
their good faith conduct in avoiding illegal discrimination. Blue
Cross's contention that the Plaintiffs will not get final relief
due to Blue Cross's competitors' actions is supposition and not a
ground to decertify the class.

The Plaintiffs claim that Blue Cross violated the
anti-discrimination provision of the Affordable Care Act ("ACA"),
when it administered discriminatory exclusions of gender affirming
care in self-funded health care plans governed by the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The Plaintiffs'
motion to certify a class of similarly situated people was granted
on November 9, 2022.

Blue Cross is a health insurer in Illinois, offering group and
individual health insurance coverage.

DELL TECHNOLOGIES: Settlement Reached in Securities Suit
--------------------------------------------------------
Dell Technologies disclosed in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended May 5, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 12, 2023, that during the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 2023, the plaintiffs and the defendants in a class
action complaint filed against the company entered into an
agreement to settle the lawsuit.

Under the terms of the settlement, the plaintiffs agreed to the
dismissal of all claims upon payment of a total of $1.0 billion,
which includes all costs, expenses and fees of the plaintiff class
relating to the action and its resolution and on May 16, 2023, the
company paid the settlement amount following approval of the
settlement by the Delaware Court of Chancery.

Class action complaints were filed against the company with regards
to a December 28, 2018 transaction in which it paid $14.0 billion
in cash and issued 149,387,617 shares of its Class C Common Stock
to holders of its Class V Common Stock in exchange for all
outstanding shares of Class V Common Stock. As a result of the
Class V transaction, the tracking stock feature of the company's
capital structure associated with the Class V Common Stock was
terminated.

Certain stockholders of the company subsequently brought class
action complaints arising out of the Class V transaction in which
they named as defendants Michael S. Dell and certain other
directors serving on the company's board of directors at the time
of the Class V transaction, certain stockholders of the company,
consisting of Mr. Dell and Silver Lake Group LLC and certain of its
affiliated funds and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, which served as
financial advisor to the company in connection with the
transaction.

The plaintiffs generally alleged that the director defendants and
the stockholder defendants breached their fiduciary duties under
Delaware law to the former holders of the Class V common stock in
connection with the Class V transaction by offering a transaction
value that was allegedly billions of dollars below fair value.

Dell Technologies is a technology provider that designs, develops,
manufactures, markets, sells, and supports solutions, products, and
services based in Texas.

EDGEWELL PERSONAL: Seeks to Strike Report of Gaskin & Colin
-----------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as KENNETH GLASSMAN,
individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v.
EDGEWELL PERSONAL CARE, LLC, Case No. 3:21-cv-07669-RS (N.D. Cal.),
the Defendant will move the Court to enter an order on March 28,
2024, excluding the survey, expert declaration, and any testimony
by Steven Gaskin and Colin Weir pursuant to Fed. R. Evid. 104(a),
702, 703, and 403.

In early 2021, Plaintiff Kenneth Glassman sought sunscreen that
would be "compliant" with "Hawaii law" banning two specific UV
filters --oxybenzone and octinoxate.

He knew Hawaii banned these filters because they may damage coral
reefs, and thus he looked for sunscreen with a "Reef Friendly"
label.

The Gaskin Conjoint Survey's failure to account for the variation
in consumers' interpretations of the "Reef Friendly" term thus
renders the survey unable to yield the willingness-to-pay
attributable to the misrepresentation alleged by Plaintiff.

Edgewell manufactures Banana Boat (TM) sunscreen products.

EDGEWELL PERSONAL: Seeks to Strike Testimony of Expert
-------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as KENNETH GLASSMAN,
individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v.
EDGEWELL PERSONAL CARE, LLC, Case No. 3:21-cv-07669-RS (N.D. Cal.),
the Defendant will move the Court to enter an order on March 28,
2024, excluding the survey, expert declaration, and any testimony
by J. Michael Dennis, Ph.D.

"Dr. Dennis' survey design is uninformative at best, and misleading
at worst." The Dennis consumer perception survey, by design, does
not isolate the challenged representation from other attributes of
the Product label. Dr. Dennis admits that, because he failed to
isolate the challenged representation, the consumer perception
portion of his survey provides no data on how many respondents
perceived the label to communicate the meaning he proposed based on
the challenged representation or based on some other package
attribute.

The Plaintiff has propounded the Dennis survey to show that
Plaintiff can prove, on a class-wide basis, that reasonable
consumers uniformly understood the words "Reef Friendly" on
sunscreen products to mean that the Products do not contain
ingredients that can harm or kill reefs.

Edgewell is an American multinational consumer products company.

EMERGENCY COVERAGE: Shelton Sues Over Improperly Collected Funds
----------------------------------------------------------------
Johneisha Shelton, on behalf of herself and all others similarly
situated v. EMERGENCY COVERAGE CORPORATION, Case No. 3:23-cv-00844
(E.D. Va., Dec. 13, 2023), is brought to recover funds for
excessive emergency provider charges unlawfully collected by
Defendants from Medicaid recipients and to recover these improperly
collected funds, she asserts claims for breach of contract, breach
of implied contract, unjust enrichment, and violations of the
Virginia Consumer Protection Act ("VCPA") and the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act ("FDCPA").

Ms. Shelton, like many Virginians of modest means, receives
Medicaid benefits administered by a managed care organization
(MCO). After she was in a car accident and sought emergency
treatment, Defendants endeavored to use her Medicaid status against
her so Defendant ECC could collect an exorbitant charge from a
settlement she recovered in a personal injury action against the
at-fault driver.

The Defendants falsely insisted that Plaintiff's Medicaid MCO plan
afforded her no coverage for her emergency care provided through
Defendant ECC and she must pay multiples of the reasonable rate for
that care because she receives Medicaid benefits. The amount
Defendants demanded from Plaintiff for the services provided dwarfs
the amount Defendant ECC routinely accepts from Medicaid for the
same services. It is multiples of the amount received by Defendant
ECC for the same services from Medicare and private insurers.
Defendants have weaponized Medicaid's third-party liability
requirements to extract excessive charges from Medicaid
beneficiaries who seek emergency treatment after car accidents.

The "charges" assessed to Plaintiff for her treatment by Dr. Nevan
Chang, an emergency physician employed by Defendant ECC, bear no
relation to the reasonable charges for the services provided. These
"charges" are multiples of Defendant ECC's "actual costs of paying
for clinicians and support services." Federal and state law and
Defendant ECC's contractual obligations with Medicaid MCOs prohibit
the scheme employed by Defendants to collect outsized service
charges from Medicaid recipients, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is an adult individual and a resident and domiciliary
of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Plaintiff is a "consumer."

ECC, through Dr. Chang or on its own, entered into a provider
agreement with Virginia Premier.[BN]

EXP WORLD HOLDINGS: Faces Grace Antitrust Suit Over Brokerage Fees
------------------------------------------------------------------
EXP World Holdings, Inc. disclosed in its Form 8-K for the period
ended December 11, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on December 15, 2023, that on December 8, 2023, a
putative class action complaint under the caption "Grace v. The
National Association of Realtors, et al." (Case No. 3:23-cv-06352)
was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of California, San Francisco Division, naming The National
Association of Realtors, the Bay Area Real Estate Information
Service, certain northern California Realtor associations and
certain real estate brokerages as defendants, including the
company.

Said action complaint alleges that defendants conspired to restrain
trade by causing certain home sellers to pay buyer broker fees and
inflated commissions on the sale of homes in violation of federal
and California antitrust laws and in violation of California unfair
competition laws. The putative class representative seeks to
represent a class of sellers of certain residential property that
was listed for sale on the Bay Area Real Estate Information
Service. Plaintiff, on behalf of herself and the putative class,
seeks a permanent injunction enjoining the defendants from
requiring home sellers to pay buyer broker fees or otherwise
restricting competition among buyer brokers and seller brokers and
an award of declaratory relief, actual damages trebled in an amount
to be determined at trial, restitutionary disgorgement, pre-and
post-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs of
suit.

EXPRESS INC: Settlement in Chacon Suit Gets Initial Nod
-------------------------------------------------------
Express, Inc. disclosed in its Form 10-Q report for the quarterly
period ended October 28, 2023, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on December 20, 2023, that on August 18, 2023,
the Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement in a class
action. A final approval hearing is scheduled in January 2024.

On January 29, 2019, Mr. Jorge Chacon filed a representative action
in the Superior Court for the State of California for the County of
Orange alleging violations of California state wage and hour
statutes and other labor standard violations, which was removed to
federal court by the Company. The lawsuit sought unspecified
monetary damages and attorneys' fees. In June 2021, a portion of
Mr. Chacon's claims in this action were certified as a class
action. The plaintiff and the Company both filed Motions for
Summary Judgment on February 28, 2022.

In June 2022, as a result of a mediation process overseen by an
independent mediator, the parties agreed, subject to approval by
the District Court, to settle these matters for an amount not
material to the Company. The proposed settlement will resolve
Chacon's matters in its entirety and also provide for a broad
release of claims asserted therein on behalf of the company's
current and former employees in California for wage and hour
violations.

fashion retailer. The company operates an omnichannel platform,

HP INC: Faces Securities Suit Over SEC Disclosures
---------------------------------------------------
HP Inc. disclosed in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
October 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on December 18, 2023, that it is facing a putative class action
complaint against HP, CEO Dion Weisler and former CFO Catherine
Lesjak in federal court in the Northern District of California.

On November 5, 2020, York County, on behalf of the County of York
Retirement Fund, filed said case. The court appointed Maryland
Electrical Industry Pension Fund as Lead Plaintiff. Lead Plaintiff
filed a consolidated complaint, which additionally names as
defendants Enrique Lores and Richard Bailey. The complaint alleges,
among other things, that from November 5, 2015 to June 21, 2016, HP
and the named current and former officers violated Sections 10(b)
and 20(a) of the Exchange Act by concealing material information
and making false statements about HP's printing supplies business.
Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and other relief. HP and the
named officers filed a motion to dismiss the complaint for failure
to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.

On March 3, 2022, the court granted the motion to dismiss with
prejudice. Plaintiffs appealed the decision. On April 11, 2023, the
appellate court reversed the district court's decision and remanded
the case to the district court for further proceedings consistent
with the appellate opinion, including consideration of HP's other
arguments for dismissal.

On June 27, 2023, the district court issued an order setting the
briefing schedule for a renewed motion to dismiss.

HP is a global provider of personal computing and other digital
access devices, imaging and printing products, and related
technologies, solutions and services.


HUNTER WARFIELD: Blizzard Sues Over Unlicensed Rental Properties
----------------------------------------------------------------
Andrew Blizzard and Nora Rowland, on their own behalf and on behalf
of all others similarly situated v. HUNTER WARFIELD, INC.,
THORNHILL PROPERTIES, INC., MT. VERNON MILL LLC, Case No.
1:23-cv-03374-ADC (D. Md., Dec. 12, 2023), is brought against the
Defendant for unlawful practices of seeking unpaid rent for
unlicensed rental properties,

Under Maryland law, the rental of a residential dwelling without a
license in a jurisdiction where a license is required to rent is a
violation of the Maryland Consumer Protection Act (the "MCPA"), and
a landlord and its agents may not seek to collect rent for any
period in which the property was unlicensed, even if the landlord
subsequently obtains a license.

This case involves a landlord who chose to disregard Maryland law
by seeking to collect unpaid rent for unlicensed rental properties,
and its debt collector and management company that aggressively
pursued payments for rent that Defendants were prohibited from
seeking to collect.

As a result, tenants were illegally coerced into paying rent that
Defendants were prohibited from collecting. As set forth in this
Complaint, the Defendant Hunter Warfield's actions violated the
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ("FDCPA"), and Defendants Mt.
Vernon Mill and Thornhill are liable to the classes under
Maryland's Consumer Debt Collection Act ("MCDCA"), and the MCPA,
says the complaint.

The Plaintiffs are residents of Maryland, residing in the Property,
and are "consumers."

Hunter Warfield is engaged in the daily business of providing debt
collection services for Maryland landlords, filing hundreds of
landlord/tenant collection actions each year.[BN]

pay all hours worked at minimum wage; failure to authorize or

J & M CORONA DELI: Hernandez Alleges Labor Law Breaches
-------------------------------------------------------
NICOLAS ROMERO HERNANDEZ, individually and on behalf of all others
similarly situated, Plaintiff v. J & M CORONA DELI CORP. and YANA
FOODS INC. d/b/a J & M CORONA DELI, JULIO HERNAN MARCA and
JIGNESHKUMAR PATEL, as individuals, Defendants, Case No.
1:23-cv-09120 (E.D.N.Y., December 12, 2023) alleges violations of
the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New York Labor Law.

Plaintiff Nicolas Romero Hernandez was employed by Defendants at J
& M Corona Deli Corp. and Yana Foods Inc. d/b/a J & M Corona Deli
from in or around February 2021 until in or around June 2021.
Throughout his employment, Plaintiff was regularly required to work
approximately 56 hours per week. However, he was only paid by the
Defendants a flat weekly rate of approximately $800 per week for
all hours worked. Thus, the Defendants failed to pay Plaintiff time
and a half for hours worked over 40, a blatant violation of the
overtime provisions contained in the FLSA and NYLL. Among other
things, the Defendants also willfully failed to post notices of the
minimum wage and overtime wage requirements in a conspicuous place
at the location of their employment as required by the FLSA and
NYLL, says the Plaintiff.

INC.; PARAMOUNT SERVICES, INC.; and BAMA BUDWEISER OF MONTGOMERY,
INC., Case No. 2:23-cv-00712 (M.D. Ala., Dec. 12, 2023), is brought
seeking injunctive relief requiring Defendants Ivey, Marshall, and
Parole Board members to immediately correct their unlawful and
discriminatory parole decision-making practices, which are trapping
thousands of people in Defendants' labor trafficking scheme; the
rescission of ADOC regulations and practices coercing incarcerated
people to labor; and all Defendants to cease their forced-labor
practices that are harming and continuing to harm all Plaintiffs
and class members; monetary damages and disgorgement of profits;
and all other appropriate relief.

The Plaintiffs Council, Moore, Walker, Cole, McDole, Campbell,
Ptomey, Pritchett, English, and Cartwright are or have recently
been incarcerated in Alabama's prison system. They have been
entrapped in a system of "convict leasing" in which incarcerated
people are forced to work, often for little or no money, for the
benefit of the numerous government entities and private businesses
that "employ" them. They live in a constant danger of being
murdered, stabbed, or raped that is so profound that the federal
government has sued Alabama for inflicting cruel and unusual
punishment, and if they refuse to work, the State punishes them
even more. They are trapped in this labor trafficking scheme.
Although they are trusted to perform work for the State, local
governments, and a vast array of private employers, some of the
same people who profit from their coerced labor have systematically
shut down grants of parole.

It is no accident that Plaintiffs Council, Moore, Walker, Cole,
McDole, Campbell, Ptomey, Pritchett, English, and Cartwright--like
individuals who were enslaved and forced to work Alabama's cotton
fields, and those forced to participate in the sharecropping and
convict leasing schemes that followed the end of the Civil War--are
Black. Alabama incarcerates a grossly disproportionate number of
Black men and women in its prisons. And the State has long used its
prisons to perpetuate the racial subjugation that existed before
the Civil War.

The Defendants Governor Kay Ivey, Attorney General Steve Marshall,
the Alabama Department of Corrections ("ADOC") through Commissioner
John Hamm, Leigh Gwathney, the Chair of the Alabama Board of
Pardons and Paroles ("Parole Board"), and the two other Parole
Board members, together with the many state and local agencies and
private employers participating in this resurrected "leasing"
practice, knowingly benefit from the human suffering they support.

The Defendants Ivey, Marshall, Hamm, and Parole Board members are
perpetuating the lucrative and abusive practices that Plaintiffs
challenge here by shutting down the possibility of parole--even as
the State profits from individual plaintiffs' labor for businesses
and government agencies in the community, without supervision. In
an effort to reduce the burdens that unnecessary imprisonment
places on taxpayers and to reduce bias and subjectivity in parole
decision-making, the Alabama Legislature has required an objective,
evidence based assessment of parole eligibility. Governor Ivey and
the other state official defendants refuse to follow this law, and
have substituted their own subjective standards instead. This has
predictably diminished the possibility of parole and resulted in
extreme racial disparities, denying Black candidates for parole
twice as often as similarly-situated white counterparts between FY
2020 and 2022--keeping Black men and women in the Alabama prison
systems so they can be "leased" out to produce hundreds of millions
of dollars in economic benefits for Defendants every year.

The Plaintiffs Moore, Walker, Cole, McDole, Campbell, Ptomey,
Pritchett, English, and Cartwright, as currently and formerly

on behalf of classes of all incarcerated persons subject to the
State's forced-labor scheme. Plaintiffs Moore, Cole, McDole,
Campbell, Ptomey, Pritchett, English, and Cartwright also bring
claims on behalf of all incarcerated persons denied parole after
Defendants Ivey, Marshall, and the Parole Board conspired to
subvert the parole system. Plaintiff Council and other individual
plaintiffs also bring a claim on their own behalf and on behalf of
those subjected to unlawful retaliation for their protected
advocacy. The individual plaintiffs are joined by Plaintiffs USSW
and RWDSU, labor organizations that are harmed by the Defendants'
exploitation of prison labor and abuse of the parole system; and
Woods Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to aiding
persons with wrongful convictions and excessive sentences that has
committed resources to addressing the Defendants' racially
discriminatory abuse of the parole system and refusal to apply the
statutory, evidence-based standards, says the complaint.

The Plaintiffs are ten individuals currently and formerly
incarcerated at facilities operated by ADOC.

META PLATFORMS: Stark Seeks Compliance to Produce Certain Docs
--------------------------------------------------------------
Brayden Stark and Judd Oostyen, on behalf of themselves and all
others similarly situated v. META PLATFORMS, INC., Case No.
3:23-mc-80326 (N.D. Cal., Dec. 13, 2023), seek an order compelling
nonparty Meta Platforms, Inc. to comply with Plaintiffs' Subpoena
to Produce Documents (the "Subpoena").

The Plaintiffs base this motion on the following grounds: (1) the
information sought by the Subpoena is relevant and proportional to
Plaintiffs' claims and to Defendant Patreon, Inc.'s defenses under
the Video Privacy Protection Act ("VPPA"), as a responsive
production from Meta will disclose the scope of personal
information Patreon transmitted to Meta for purposes of Plaintiffs'
VPPA claims; this information is only available from Meta;
Plaintiffs require Class member data from Meta to obtain class
certification by satisfying elements of Rule; and Plaintiffs'
motion is narrowly framed to limit Meta's burden of complying with
the Subpoena.

The Plaintiffs move to enforce their subpoena of nonparty Meta,
which owns and operates Facebook. Plaintiffs allege Patreon
programmed a tracking tool called the Meta Pixel ("Pixel") onto its
website to send information to Meta about Patreon's subscribers and
better target them with digital advertisements. The Pixel is a
segment of programming code that tracks "events"--users' activities
on a website—and transmits this data to Meta. The Plaintiffs
allege that, by operation of the Pixel that it installed on its
website, Patreon sends Meta its subscribers' Facebook IDs ("FID")
and the titles of the videos they watched on its website, violating
the VPPA. Patreon admits it installed the Pixel but denies that it
provided Plaintiffs' identifying information and the titles of the
videos they watched to Meta.[BN]

MIDFIRST BANK: De Medicis Sues Over Inadequate Data Security
------------------------------------------------------------
DAVID DE MEDICIS individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. MIDFIRST BANK and PROGRESS SOFTWARE
CORPORATION, Defendants, Case No. 1:23-cv-13057-ADB (D. Mass.,
December 12, 2023) arises out of the recent targeted cyberattack
and data breach where unauthorized third-party criminals retrieved
and exfiltrated the highly-sensitive consumer data of Plaintiff,
and at least 20,000 Class members and asserts claims against the
Defendants for negligence, breach of implied contract, unjust
enrichment, bailment, and breach of fiduciary duty.

According to the notice letter sent to Plaintiff dated September 6,
2034, Defendant MidFirst used software made by Defendant Progress
Software Corporation (MOVEit), which was subject to a cybersecurity
attack that allowed unauthorized parties to access and compromise
Plaintiff's and Class members' private information between May 27
and 31, 2023. However, Defendant MidFirst waited nearly three
months from the date of the data breach and the date it learned of
the data breach and the highly sensitive nature of the private
information impacted, to publicly disclose the data breach and
notify affected individuals. Due to Defendants' inadequate security
measures and their delayed notice to victims, Plaintiff and Class
members now face a present, immediate, and ongoing risk of fraud
and identity theft that they will have to deal with for the rest of
their lives, says the suit.

Headquartered in Oklahoma City, OK, MidFirst Bank is the largest
privately owned bank in the United States with $36.5 billion in

the

MULLIKIN GROUP: Armstrong Sues to Recover Unpaid Overtime Wages
---------------------------------------------------------------
Thomas C. Armstrong, individually, and on behalf of himself and
others similarly situated v. MULLIKIN GROUP, INC., D/B/A BATH
FITTERS, Case No. 2:23-cv-02768 (W.D. Tenn., Dec. 12, 2023), is
brought against Defendant as a Collective Action under the Fair
Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") to recover unpaid overtime
compensation and other damages for Plaintiff and other similarly
situated current and former employees classified as home
inspectors.

The Plaintiff and potential plaintiffs performed work for Defendant
in excess of 40 hours per week within weekly pay periods during all
times material to this action. The Defendant established,
implemented and administered the pay and compensation plans,
policies and practices related to Plaintiff and potential
plaintiffs. Considering that Plaintiff and potential plaintiffs
worked more than five days per week, and more than eight hours per
shift within weekly pay periods, they performed overtime work in
such weekly pay periods. However, they were not paid for such
overtime within such weekly pay periods at the applicable FLSA
overtime compensation rates of pay during all times material
herein.

The Defendant willfully and with reckless disregard to established
FLSA overtime requirements--and without a good faith basis--failed
to pay Plaintiff and potential plaintiffs all the overtime
compensation owed them at the applicable FLSA overtime compensation
rates of pay within weekly pay periods during all times material to
this action. The Defendant knew and was aware at all relevant times
it was failing to pay the overtime compensation to Plaintiff and
potential plaintiffs that was due them. As a result of Defendant's
lack of a good faith basis and willful failure to pay Plaintiff and
potential plaintiffs in compliance with the overtime requirements
of the FLSA, they have suffered lost wages in terms of lost
overtime compensation, as well as suffered other damages, says the
complaint.

The Plaintiff was employed by Defendant as a home inspector at its
Memphis, Tennessee operations.

The Defendant does business as Bath Fitters, a bath room
installation company.[BN]

Plaintiffs v. NASSAU COUNTY, and COUNTY EXECUTIVE BRUCE BLAKEMAN,
in his Official Capacity, Defendants, Case No. 620113/2023 (N.Y.

NEWPORT GROUP: Amec Bid to Dismiss Symetra Cross-Claim Tossed
-------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as Wade, et al v. Newport
Group, Inc., et al., (RE: AME CHURCH EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT FUND
LITIGATION), Case No. 1:22-cv-01129-STA-jay (W.D. Tenn.), the Hon.
Judge S. Thomas Anderson entered an order:

  -- Denying Amec's motion to dismiss Symetra Life Insurance
     Company's cross-claim;

  -- Granting in part, denying in part Symetra life's motion to
     stay; and

  -- Granting Symetra life's motion to stay Amec's crossclaims.

Symetra Life has satisfied the requirements for a mandatory stay of
the proceedings pursuant to section 3 of the Federal Arbitration
Act, 9 U.S.C. section 3, pending arbitration between AMEC and
Symetra Life of two gateway issues of arbitrability:

   (1) whether the 2003 RSA binds the Church and Symetra Life to
       arbitrate their dispute, and

   (2) if so, the scope of the issues and claims between the
Church
       and Symetra Life subject to arbitration. Because of the
       mandatory nature of section 3 relief, AMEC's Motion to
Dismiss
       Symetra Life's cross-claims against the Church cannot be
       granted. Nevertheless, Symetra Life has not shown why a stay
of
       the proceedings, either a mandatory stay under section 3 or
a
       discretionary stay pursuant to the Court's inherent power
over
       its docket, is warranted as to Plaintiffs' claims against
       Symetra Life.

The Plaintiffs seek to represent a class defined as:

   "All persons residing in the United States who are participants
in
   the African Methodist Episcopal Church Ministerial Retirement
   Annuity Plan, all persons residing in the United States who are

   beneficiaries entitled to benefits as of January 1, 2021, under
the
   African Methodist Episcopal Church Ministerial Retirement
Annuity
   Plan, and all persons residing in the United States who are
   qualified employees of the AMEC who were not, but should have
been,
   made participants or beneficiaries in the African Methodist
   Episcopal Church Ministerial Retirement Annuity Plan."
   The class consists of more than 5,000 members, though the
precise
   number is not currently known.

The Plaintiffs allege that the Rev. Dr. Jerome V. Harris, the
Executive Director of the AMEC Department of Retirement Services
and the Trustee for the church's retirement Plan, embarked on a
long-running conspiracy to embezzle Plan funds and defraud
Plaintiffs.

NOVAVAX INC: Settles Sinnathurai Suit Over SEC Filing
------------------------------------------------------
Novavax, Inc. disclosed in its Form 8-K on December 5, 2023, filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 5, 2023,
that on December 4, 2023, the parties agreed to a binding
settlement in principle to fully resolve the surviving claims in
the case captioned "Sothinathan Sinnathurai v. Novavax, Inc., et
al.," (Case No. 8:21-cv-02910-TDC, November 12, 2021). Under the
proposed settlement's terms, the company agreed to pay $47 million
into a settlement fund.

The U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland dismissed all
claims against two individual defendants and claims based on
certain public statements challenged in the consolidated amended
securities class action against the company and certain members of
senior management. The Maryland Court denied the motion to dismiss
as to the remaining claims and defendants, and directed the company
and other remaining defendants to answer within fourteen days. On
December 27, 2022, the company filed its answer and affirmative
defenses.

On January 26, 2022, the Maryland Court entered an order
designating David Truong, Nuggehalli Balmukund Nandkumar, and
Jeffrey Gabbert as co-lead plaintiffs in the Sinnathurai Action.
The co-lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint on
March 11, 2022, alleging that the defendants made certain
purportedly false and misleading statements concerning the
company's ability to manufacture NVX-CoV2373 on a commercial scale
and to secure the NVX-CoV2373's regulatory approval. The amended
complaint defines the purported class as those stockholders who
purchased the company's securities between February 24, 2021 and
October 19, 2021. On April 25, 2022, the defendants filed a motion
to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On December 12,
2022, the Maryland Court issued a ruling granting in part and
denying in part defendants' motion to dismiss.

development, and commercialization of vaccines. It currently has

COVID Vaccine, Adjuvanted), which it markets under the brand name

Exchange Commission on December 20, 2023, that on November 20,
2023, the court dismissed a securities class action pursuant to a
settlement agreement.

On April 14, 2023, a purported federal securities class action
complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California against the company, two of its
current officers, and a former officer. The complaint generally
alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements in
violation the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 10b-5. The court appointed
a lead plaintiff for the putative class in this action, consisting
of those who purchased or otherwise acquired its securities between
September 21, 2021 and March 6, 2023, inclusive.

In September 2023, the company and the lead plaintiff in the
securities class action reached an agreement to dismiss the action,
with prejudice as to the lead plaintiff and without prejudice as to
the other members of the putative class. The settlement payment was
not material.

OHNH EMP: Scott Sues Over Unpaid Overtime Compensation
------------------------------------------------------
Ashley Scott and Falona Gavins, individually and on behalf of all
others similarly situated v. OHNH EMP, LLC d/b/a ADDISON HEALTHCARE
CENTER, Case No. 4:23-cv-02380 (N.D. Ohio, Dec. 13, 2023), is
brought against the Defendant's ciolation of the Ohio Revised Code
and the Fair Labor Standards Act by not paying Plaintiffs and
similarly situated employees at least time-and-a-half overtime
wages for all hours over forty in a workweek.

When Defendant implemented the Kronos system, Defendant began a
practice of automatically deducting 30 minutes for lunch breaks, if
the employee did not punch out for lunch. If the employee did punch
out for lunch, Defendant automatically deducted one hour for lunch
breaks. The Defendant made automatic lunch breaks deductions
regardless of whether Plaintiffs and similarly situated employees
actually took a lunch break. Plaintiffs did not take lunch breaks
at least 3 days per week that they worked. Defendant deducted time
for lunch breaks from Plaintiffs' pay regardless. Defendant offered
no options whatsoever for Plaintiffs and similarly situated
employees to receive compensation for the automatic lunch break
deductions that Defendant made.

The Plaintiffs worked over forty hours per week for Defendant. The
Defendant is required to comply with time-and-a-half overtime wage
requirements set forth in the Ohio Revised Code and the Fair Labor
Standards Act. The Defendant has violated the Ohio Revised Code and
the Fair Labor Standards Act by not paying Plaintiffs and similarly
situated employees at least time-and-a-half overtime wages for all
hours over forty in a workweek that Plaintiffs and similarly
situated employees worked. Plaintiffs and similarly situated
employees have been damaged by Defendant's non-payment of
time-and-a-half overtime wages for hours over forty in a workweek
that Plaintiffs and similarly situated employees worked, says the
complaint.

The Plaintiffs were employed by the Defendant.

PROTECTIVE LIFE: Court Vacates Class Cert Hearing in Allen
-----------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as BEVERLY ALLEN, v.
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, et al., Case No.
1:20-cv-00530-JLT-CDB (E.D. Cal.), the Court entered an order:

-- granting the Defendants' motion to stay; and

-- Vacating hearing on the plaintiff's motion to certify class.

After balancing the potential harm and inequity presented by
staying this action against the competing equities of hardship
imposed and judicial economy, the Court finds good cause exists to
grant the Defendants' motion to stay pending resolution by the
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals of important and potentially
dispositive issues germane to this case.

The action is stayed pending issuance of an opinion by the Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals in the Farley and/or Small actions. If no
determinative decision is rendered in Farley and/or Small within
one year of the date of this Order, Plaintiff may seek relief
through a motion to lift stay.

The Plaintiff Allen filed this lawsuit on April 13, 2020, asserting
six claims for relief against Defendants Protective Life Insurance
Company and Empire General Life Insurance Company. The Plaintiff
seeks to collect the death proceeds of her late husband, Danny
Allen, as the beneficiary of his life insurance policy.

The Plaintiff further seeks to represent a class of individuals
whose life insurance policies were improperly lapsed due to
Defendants' alleged non-compliance with California Insurance Code
sections 10113.71 and 10113.72. On October 2, 2020, the Court
granted Defendants' first motion to stay.

The Plaintiff moves for the certification of two classes, defined
follows:

  -- The Class:

     "All vested owners and beneficiaries of life insurance
policies
     issued or delivered by Defendant in California, and which,
after
     January 1, 2013, were lapsed or terminated for nonpayment of
     premium without Defendant first providing all the protections

     required by Insurance Code Sections 10113.71 and 10113.72

  -- The Elder Abuse Sub-Class:

     "All members of the Class defined above who were also 65
     years or older at the time the policy lapsed or terminated."

Protective Life offers annuities and life insurance services.

US TITLE CO: Neff Sues Over Underpayment of Wages
-------------------------------------------------
LESLIE NEFF, individually and on behalf of similarly situated
individuals, Plaintiffs, U.S. TITLE CO., INC., and JOSHUA BLACK,
Defendants, Case No. 2:23-cv-00588 (E.D. Tex., December 12, 2023)
alleges misclassification of title examiners and escrow officers as
exempt employees despite having no duties which would meet the
tests for exemptions under the Fair Labor Standards Act.

US Title hired Ms. Neff in February of 2021 as an escrow officer.
During most workweeks that she was employed by Defendants, Ms. Neff
frequently worked more than 40 hours per week but was not paid
overtime wages. Moreover, Defendants' underpayment of the Plaintiff
and her co-workers, often referred to as "wage theft," allowed
Defendants to gain an unfair advantage in the marketplace as
compared to other title companies that pay their employees all of
the money required by law, says the suit.

U.S. Title Co., Inc. is a title company with offices concentrated
in East Texas and specifically within the Eastern District of
Texas, Tyler Division. Mr. Black is the current owner of US Title
and is an attorney licensed in the State of Texas. [BN]
