In Remijas, Neiman Marcus argued that the plaintiff lacked standing to sue over the data breach experienced by the company because the plaintiffs had not met the requirements for standing under the Supreme Court's decision in Clapper v. Amnesty International, 133 S. Ct. 1138 (2013). In Clapper, the Supreme Court held that, in order to establish standing in a lawsuit, a plaintiff must allege an injury in fact that is both redressible and was caused by the defendant's conduct. The Seventh Circuit rejected Neiman Marcus' argument on standing, in part, because of the company's decision to pay for credit-monitoring and identity theft protection services for the plaintiffs in the wake of the data breach. The court stated Neiman Marcus' decision to provide these remediation services was "telling" in that it was "unlikely" that the company offered to pay for these services because "the risk [of injury] is so ephemeral that it can safely be disregarded."
