🚨Client Alert: The Illinois Senate recently passed SB 2979, a significant #BIPA amendment with bipartisan support, likely to become law, aiming to clarify damages and consent procedures for #biometricdata collection. The bill's potential impact on BIPA defendants, including #Amazon in ongoing litigation, remains contentious as it progresses through the legal process.

The Illinois Senate took the first step toward amending the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, which has been the subject of multitudes of litigation in the last couple years. The Illinois House of Representatives will now consider whether to approve the amendment. The amendment addresses the Illinois Supreme Court holding in Cothron v. White Castle, holding each violative scan constituted a separate compensable violation. The amendment would instead state that the initial collection of a fingerprint or other biometric data amounts to one violation and thus only one recovery. However, the amendment would not be retroactive. What substantive impact this change may have is dubious since settlements of class action lawsuits, such as those reached in In re: TikTok and In re: Facebook, do not appear to be based on number of scans per class member. Supporters for legislative action to curb the impact of BIPA will likely argue this amendment does not go far enough; however, this seems to at least be a battle won for businesses in the ongoing war of BIPA litigation. #bipa #bipalegislation #illinois

In what's sure to be another controversial, landmark case in 2024, a judge in Fort Wayne, IN has ruled that tacos and burritos are, in fact, sandwiches. Me? I disagree, but what are your thoughts? Comment below 👇 👇 👇 #embracedebate #embracethedebate #taco #tacos #burrito #burritos #sandwich #sandwiches https://lnkd.in/d-hRxp_4
