Acadian Ambulance is requesting the dismissal of a class-action lawsuit related to a July 2024 ransomware attack by the Daixin Team. The company argues that there is no evidence of actual harm to any patients resulting from the data breach, which affected 2.9 million people and allegedly exposed sensitive information, including Social Security numbers, on the dark web. Federal Magistrate Judge Carol Whitehurst has stated she will make a ruling on the dismissal request after a hearing where attorneys for Acadian expressed concerns over the validity of the claims made.
Acadian Ambulance argues that the class-action lawsuit lacks evidence of real harm to patients, stating that 'zero damages multiplied across an alleged class of 2.9 million is still zero dollars.'
During a recent hearing, Federal Magistrate Judge Carol Whitehurst indicated she would make a ruling on Acadian's dismissal request at a later date, reflecting the case's complex nature.
The consolidated lawsuit stems from a July 2024 data breach where sensitive information of 2.9 million people was allegedly leaked online, but Acadian claims 'cut-and-pasted' allegations lack merit.
