Chantay SEWELL, Plaintiff–Appellant, v. Phil BERNARDIN, Defendant–Appellee, No. 14–3143
(Decided: Aug. 4, 2015)

In a case of first impression in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, obtained a decision that reversed the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York’s ruling that a suit commenced under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and the Stored Communications Act was time barred. The Circuit Court found the suit timely by treating the instances when the defendant infiltrated plaintiffs internet accounts as separate violations of those statutes and revived the suit.
