    8th Circ. Affirms Max Liability Ruling In Grocer's Breach Battle

    The Eighth Circuit on Friday saved Schnuck Markets from a potential million-dollar bill related to a 2013 data breach that compromised customer cardholder data, letting stand a lower court's ruling that the supermarket chain's liability is capped at $500,000.

    Grocer's Breach Liability Shouldn't Have Cap, 8th Circ. Told

    A pair of payment processors on Monday urged the Eight Circuit to reverse a ruling that Schnuck Markets' liability for a 2013 data breach is limited to $500,000, arguing that the lower court's determination turned them into "unwilling and uncompensated insurers" of the grocer's data security.
