Final Fairness Hearing
- A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against CSI Financial Services LLC dba ClearBalance (“ClearBalance” or “Defendants”) for a data security incident that occurred between March 8, 2021 and April 26, 2021 when unauthorized users gained access to the email accounts of two ClearBalance employees most likely from a successful phishing attack (the “Data Security Incident”).
- The lawsuit is called Ivo Kolar v. CSI Financial Services LLC dba ClearBalance (Case No. 37-2021-00030426) (the “Action”) and is pending in the Superior Court of the State of California in the County of San Diego. The lawsuit asserts claims related to the Data Security Incident. The Settlement does not establish who is correct, but rather is a compromise to end the lawsuit.
