“24 Seven Awarded Damages in I. D. Theft Case”

Richard Reice was quoted in the article, “24 Seven Awarded Damages in I. D. Theft Case,” published February 22, 2008 by ApparelNews.net. The article notes that this recently resolved court case shows how companies can fall victim to identity theft.

Richard noted that on January 17, 2008, the New York Supreme Court awarded $1 million in damages to his client, 24 Seven, because the court determined that the staffing company’s competitor, Gromwell Group, had violated a restraining order that 24 Seven had secured against the company for using stolen employee information and details of 24 Seven’s billing history with its clients to call 24 Seven’s clients and employees. Richard also noted that 24 Seven may never collect on damages or further prosecute the case because Gromwell Group has declared bankruptcy.
