A settlement has been reached with Legends Hospitality, LLC (“Legends Hospitality” or “Defendant”) in a class action lawsuit. This case is about targeted cyberattacks on Legends Hospitality's computer systems that occurred in November 2024, December 2024, and January 2025 (“Data Incidents”). Certain files that contained Private Information were accessed. These files may have contained personal information such as names; dates of birth; Social Security numbers; driver’s license numbers; government ID numbers; financial information; medical information; and health insurance information.
The lawsuit is called Julianne Cook, et al. v. Legends Hospitality, LLC, Index No. 106468/2025. It is pending in the Superior Court for New York County, New York (“Litigation”). Legends Hospitality denies it did anything wrong, and the Court has not decided who is right. The parties have agreed to settle the lawsuit (“Settlement”) to avoid the costs and risks, disruptions, and uncertainties of continuing the Litigation.
