Jason Rosenthal Talks Illinois Supreme Court BIPA Ruling in Law360

Jason Rosenthal, chair of the Much Commercial Litigation group, talked to Law360 about the Illinois Supreme Court’s ruling that Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) claims are governed by a five-year statute of limitations, rather than a one-year statute. He highlighted a positive aspect of longer BIPA policy periods, noting that “the farther you can go back, the greater chance there is for a BIPA defendant or policyholder ... to get a policy that has more favorable language.”
