The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has decided that the three lawsuits filed against the OPM by the National Treasure Employees Union, the American Federation of Government Employees and Mary Woo, a former employee of the U.S. Attorney for its data breach affecting 21.5 million individuals will proceed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

It was noted by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation that almost a dozen other suits are pending but not transferred with this order, but may be transferred in the future.
