Home Depot Moves to Dismiss Data Breach Suit
Attorneys for Home Depot claim that “Noticeably absent is any plausible allegation of concrete injury traceable to Home Depot U.S.A., Inc. or The Home Depot, Inc.” and have submitted a motion to dismiss the data breach suit filed by over 100 plaintiffs, including financial institutions in over 44 states. Attorneys for the claimants blasted the move and plaintiffs attorneys’ claim that the expenses incurred by the plaintiffs were voluntary in order to protect themselves against future harm. [7/9/15]
