   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-2378
                          and No:  16-2528
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Colloton, Circuit 
   Judge] 
   Civil case - Class Actions. In an action by consumers whose credit card 
   information was stolen during security breaches of defendants' databases 
   alleging defendants took inadequate steps to protect customers' credit and 
   debit card information, with the exception of one plaintiff, the sixteen 
   plaintiffs have not alleged that they have suffered fraudulent charges on 
   their credit or debit cards or that fraudulent accounts have been opened 
   in their names and, as a result, they have not alleged a substantial risk 
   of future identity theft and do not have standing; one plaintiff has, 
   however, alleged a present injury by alleging he suffered a fraudulent 
   charge on his credit card; this constitutes identity theft and is an 
   actual, concrete and particularized injury; by alleging an injury in fact, 
   traceable to defendant's security practices and likely to be redressed by 
   a favorable judgment, this plaintiff has Article III standing, and his 
   case should be permitted to proceed.
