U.S. District Judge Consuelo Marshall has rejected AT&T’s bid to dismiss a lawsuit that alleges the company was negligent for failing to prevent the theft of $1.8 million in crypto from investor Seth Shapiro.
In the judge’s order allowing the suit to continue, Shapiro’s claims of negligence, negligent supervision, claims brought under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and request for punitive damages, were left intact.
