Tower Health Lawsuit Dismissed after Failing to Prove Sensitivity of Personal Health Information”.

A proposed class action against Tower Health based in Pennsylvania was dismissed after plaintiffs Patrick Santoro and Jessica Landis failed to prove that the personal health information shared with Meta Platforms Inc. was sensitive enough to constitute a violation of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act and common law.

Santoro and Landis accused Tower Health of sharing their personal health information with Meta Platforms Inc., leading to claims of negligence, intrusion upon seclusion, and violations of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act. However, Judge John F. Murphy of the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania ruled that the information shared was not sensitive enough to warrant legal action.

Without meeting the necessary criteria to proceed with their claims, the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed by the court. The dismissal of the lawsuit without leave to amend signifies the end of the legal action taken against Tower Health in this matter. Despite allegations of privacy violations, the court did not find sufficient evidence to support the claims brought forth by Santoro and Landis.
