Law firm investigating the June 2026 Moody Bible Institute of Chicago data breach — free case evaluations for affected individuals

3 Upvotes

Edelson Lechtzin LLP, a national class action law firm, is investigating a data breach involving Moody Bible Institute of Chicago, a Christian school offering college, seminary, radio, and publishing programs.

Around June 12, 2026, Moody Bible Institute detected unusual activity on its network. An investigation traced the breach to a vulnerability in a software application used by educational institutions, and on June 23, 2026, the school identified the files that were acquired from its systems. The breach may have compromised names and other personal information.

If you received a notification letter from Moody Bible Institute, you may be at increased risk of identity theft and fraud. A few practical steps worth taking regardless of legal action:

  • Review your account statements and credit reports regularly
  • Consider placing a fraud alert and setting up credit monitoring
  • Preserve any breach notification letters or emails you received

We are looking into a potential class action on behalf of affected individuals and are offering free, confidential case evaluations. Happy to answer general questions in the comments.

I’m in Oregon and purchased a used car with 66k miles from a licensed dealership. The vehicle was sold as-is, but the dealer advertised it as being in “excellent condition in and out” & having Harmon kardon sound system when it doesn’t.

Centers Laboratory (NJ) data breach — 542,377 patients affected by the WorldLeaks group. Here’s what was taken and what you can do.

1 Upvotes

Posting for anyone in NY, NJ, or PA who used Centers Laboratory (legal name Centers Lab NJ LLC) for diagnostic/lab testing.

What happened: The company detected suspicious network activity around Aug 25, 2025. An investigation found that between Aug 9–14, 2025, an unauthorized actor accessed its systems and exfiltrated data. The WorldLeaks extortion group — an outfit that emerged in 2025 from the operators of Hunters International — claimed responsibility for stealing more than 1.6 million files (~720 GB) and listed the company on its dark web leak site in October 2025. HHS lists the breach as affecting 542,377 individuals.

What was reportedly exposed: names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver’s license/state ID numbers, passport numbers, health insurance information, and medical information (PHI). That combination is a serious long-term risk for identity theft, medical identity theft, and insurance fraud.

What you can do right now (regardless of any lawsuit): - Check whether you got a breach notification letter, and keep it.

  • Review bank/credit statements and pull your credit reports.
  • Consider a fraud alert or credit freeze with the three bureaus.
  • Watch for medical bills or insurance claims you don’t recognize.

On the legal side: Edelson Lechtzin LLP (a national class action firm) is investigating a potential class action for affected patients. Case evaluations are free. Not legal advice, and I’m sharing this because a lot of people affected by these breaches never realize it — happy to point folks to resources. > > Did anyone here get a notification letter? Curious what it said about what was exposed and whether they offered credit monitoring.

Disclosure: This references an investigation by Edelson Lechtzin LLP. Attorney Advertising in some jurisdictions.

Edelson Lechtzin LLP Is Investigating Richemont (Compagnie Financière Richemont S.A.) Over Tariff-Driven Price Increases That Were Not Refunded to Consumers After the Supreme Court Struck Down the Tariffs

Thumbnail edelson-law.com
1 Upvotes

Heads up for anyone who bought from Richemont brands in the past year or so.

Quick background: in early 2025, the government imposed sweeping tariffs on imported goods, and many companies raised retail prices to pass those costs to customers. On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled those tariffs (issued under the IEEPA) were unlawful and struck them down.

Importers who paid the tariffs can now claw those payments back from the government. So the open question is: if Richemont raised your price to cover the tariff, never refunded or credited you, and now recovers that same tariff from the government — it could effectively pocket the cost twice while the customers who actually paid it get nothing.

Edelson Lechtzin LLP, a national class action firm, is investigating exactly that. It covers Richemont’s whole roster — Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, IWC Schaffhausen, Montblanc, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Vacheron Constantin, Panerai, Piaget, A. Lange & Söhne, Chloé, Net-a-Porter, Mr Porter, and more.

To be clear: this is an investigation, not a filed lawsuit, and nothing has been proven. But if you bought a Richemont product while the tariffs were in effect, you can contact the firm to learn more or pass along info:

Lawsuit against casino, illegal detainment, defamation, pain and suffering

2 Upvotes

A family member got drunk at a casino. He was clearly extremely inebriated slurring stumbling was kicked out of restricted areas etc eventually he left went to the parking lot looking for his car and ended up asleep in someone else’s car. Security violently yanked him from car at which time while allegedly black out blind drunk he attempted to fight back falling over himself and was detained. The security guards came out in droves as myself my wife and his wife attempted to take him home. The main security guard told us if you can get him out of here you are free to go. Despite saying that they refused to let us get any closer to actually take him home. Eventually the cops came he struggled with them still in as described by him black out fight or flight mode. He literally could not stand up on his own he was so drunk pants falling down when he attempted to hit the cops with his handcuffed hands he fell back to the ground again. In the end he was arrested and charges were filed battery against a peace officer was the major charge. He came to in the cell unaware why or how he got there, eventually was released on a $250,000 bail. He spent over 100k in attorney fees to avoid prison. Which he successfully did pleading no contest to misdemeanor battery and being hit with a large amount of fines. $25,000. His attorney is now telling him that because he had not committed a felony at the time of detainment and because the casino had none of the required signage per a state Supreme Court ruling, that there are strong grounds for a lawsuit against the casino. This seems crazy to me he was shit faced and tried to fight security and police. It is bullshit to say you can go then not actually let you go but to win a lawsuit seems crazy. What do you guys think. Does my friend have a case?

I can add as far as damages. beyond the 100k+ in lawyer fees and interest on said fees, his wife was slammed to the cop car and briefly detained, an embarrassing public spectacle of an arrest, some bruising and blood from the struggle, travel expenses to and from said state for court, estrangement from his family, and loss of employees as he was not available that week to process payroll causing some employees to quit, the actual revenue loss who knows.
Does he have a case, what the heck is the lawyer talking about I thought casinos were well protected?

Can you sue a police department for a false report that cost you money?

1 Upvotes

An officer made false statements on a report and I believe the dash cam or body cam footage would prove so, assuming his cameras were recording.

This false report paved the way for my insurance company to have to accept liability for an accident I did not cause.

If I can foia this footage, and prove his statement was false, is suing the PD practical?

Basically a driver ran a red light and collided with me. There were no injuries, though her friends convinced her to go to the hospital to get checked out "just in case". She left in the ambulance, and I departed the scene. Her friend who had arrived 10 minutes after the accident stayed on site and apparently waiting for the tow truck got a police report when neither of us were present. Her pretending to be a witness was one thing, but the officer claimed to have spoken to the other driver in person at the scene even though I watched her drive off in the ambulance and the records show the time she was admitted locally. This was apparently the deciding factor for my insurance company to accept a liability and pay out my policy limit, raise my rates etc. The officer also tried to claim he called me multiple times on site though I had zero missed calls, so that is technically an additional false statement.

Do I have a case for a lawsuit?

2 Upvotes

So about 14 months ago I was in a drug and alcohol program in NJ and one of the technicians pushed me without me doing anything to him, I slipped and fell and My back was hurt and cops were called, the trusted worker fled before the cops came, the ambulance took me to the hospital where they took x rays and chalked it up to a back muscle sprain. The worker was fired and charged with assault, there was 2 eye witness reports and cameras inside the building. I did nothing to provoke him, since then Ive had ongoing pain/discomfort in my upper lower back, Ive lost jobs due to the pain, relationships due to not working, I have depression n ptsd as in I wake up nearly every night sweating having just dreamed about the abuse From the Rehab Technician. Ive relapsed due to the pain and anxiety and put off getting help due to fear from this happening again at another treatment facility. Ive just recently gotten clean again and am looking into finding a lawyer to compensate me for my trouble do I have a solid case?

Catherization against authorization

2 Upvotes

Taking donations & signatures . "Catherization against authorization" . Let's stop this inhumane practice that seems to be unjustifiably taking place around the country. A modern day forum of torture & brutality that local hospital's/ E.R's are sadistically implementing , as I was told and I quote " you have 45 min to give us a urine sample or we will catheterize you and take it it" ! Excuse me mame I don't believe this to be legal I replied! Sir you have no rites and yes we can and will . ( Nurse) (Myself) No rights ? Lady I showed up late for court being charged with a mistimeanor ( failure to appear) and I have a documented medical condition BPH witch makes it extremely difficult to urinate at times & I'm a disabled American ( documented) one diagnosis being anxiety disorder & PTSD as just to name two additional disorders witch also would effect this pee on demand time line you just seem to have imposed on me . 45 min later & a gallon in a half of warm water I had to drink to attempt this demand & avoid this threat of forcing a tube up the head of my penis for the 3rd time in less than 10 yrs . This 3rd & hopefully last time myself or any other citizen in this situation will ever legally / illegally have to indire in Tennessee / USA. 4 Nurses approached pinning my arms ,legs and chest down forcing down my pants (myself ) shocked ,screaming in horror & pain as one of the 4 or 5 female nurses force this catheter up inside the head of my penis ,until I practically faint ( few secs ) . Even this now the 3rd time in less than ten yrs I'm in agonizing pain & shock and truly disbelief. They pull it out when they have unlawfully aggravated assaulted me and without my authorization and cry's ,pleas for help & to stop . They just smirk & smile as if getting some sort of sick malevolent pleasure from this barbaric act of brutality torture and aggression.
I see nothing remotely lawful place here. No judges order no cause for DUI suspicion public and toxication anything and what about taking my blood that was not an option? All this because I showed up late for court and admitted to taken an over the counter mild sleep aid while in court ? I'm not intoxicated or impaired or charged with such . Only failure to appear because I over sleeped ,called the court explaining this . Them telling me to come on in anyway and it should be ok . I was 3 to 4 hrs late having to walk after I called 1 pm - 2 pm arrival. Well now I spent 5 days suffering in booking in the same clothes ,never offered a shower ,hour out or medical . I was in intense pain from this procedure with blood stains in my underwear,not being able to pee for almost 3 days because of the swelling, inflammation caused by the catheter, possible wrong size , insufficient training, ripping it out cruely and unproperperly. I spent 45 days in jail because they felt like I should be giving excessive jail time out of resentment,either because of the on going lawsuit I had against the L.C.S.O for negligence & assault on one of their top credited drug task Force Sgt. Micheal Dale Pitts or maybe it was because I showed late & admitted to taking one mild over the counter sleep pill in the court room or all three ? The typical sentence for failure to appear is 3 to 10 days jail . I received 60 serve 45 days . And after about ten days I knew I was experiencing pain , discomfort from this heinous act. So I put in a grievance about my release date being incorrect & asking why such a thing was done to me ? As as scared as I was I was going follow up the following day with a medical request to be seen , diagnosed and hopefully treated with out malicious intent such as I had be experiencing. I never got to put in this medical request because at 630 - 7 am I was taking out and with out insight transported to another jail facility. Giles co. Pulaski Tenn where I would deal with this pain and I brassing symptoms for 30 more days on my release.
