What happened
A proposed class action against First Financial Investment Fund III, LLC, apparently related to a data breach or privacy incident involving FBCS and its customers. The docket references interim class counsel and related actions against FBCS and FBCS customers, suggesting consumers' personal information may have been mishandled. These are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts and not a settlement.
