Court Cases involving Security Breach
Estate of Behringer v. Princeton Medical Center,
249 N.J.Super. 597 (1991). Behringer, a surgeon at
Princeton Medical Center, was diagnosed with AIDS.
Behringer's chart, which included several references to

floor with no special protection; his condition soon
became widely known. Behringer sued the hospital for its
failure to take reasonable steps to protect his
confidentiality.

(Kings County Supreme Court, New York, 1994). Velazquez
was admitted to St. Clare's Hospital in 1991. In 1992,
while she was running for election to U.S. House of
Representatives, copies of her medical records were
distributed to the press, which reported on them.
Velazquez sued the hospital for breach of contractual
and fiduciary duties of confidentiality, for wrongful
disclosure, and for negligence in maintenance of the
security of the medical record.

(Hancock County Superior Court, Indiana, 1992).
According to the complaint, Doe, who had tested positive

sued the hospital and some of its employees for invasion
of privacy and other wrongful conduct.
