Wasn't he going to start up another computer company? Maybe it was another NCIX employee.

There is still Able Auctions and the Trustees on the lawsuit.

so if the lawsuit happens, and assuming somehow it wins, does the other debtors gets the right to be head of the line or because this is another type of lawsuit, they get first dips?

If the classaction lawsuit wins, I don't think the debtors would get anything anymore. It is NCIX, Able Auctions, and the Trustees getting sued for negligence. If anything, NCIX is going to be put into further debt since it has to pay for the damages from the lawsuit.

IMO, Able Auctions and the Trustees totally screwed up. They should have gone through the hard drives and just wiped them en masse. But I guess they didn't have the technical expertise to realize this.

I used to go to Able Auctions when they were in Vancouver off Clark. They don't go through anything. Stuff is put out and sold as is when the businesses liquidate their hard goods.

A few years ago they were selling off some office cabinets/desks/cubicles that came from Shaw it turns out. Desks were full of engineering paperwork for properties that needed cable drops put in. Files had full names, addresses and SIN numbers attached to the files.

Shaw should have cleaned out the files before shipping them off to be liquidated. Able isn't going to spend the time to do that... Well, depending how it turns out now, maybe they will.

There is no way that Able Auctions is going to be found negligent for not wiping hard drives on stuff they are hired to sell. They are not computer technicians, they are auctioneers selling whole computers - whether they start or not, and what if anything is on them, is outside scope. Not to mention, I guarantee their agreements to list equipment will disclaimer them out of anything close to this.

it's probably in their T&C when you sign up as a bidder they are not responsible for anything. Releasing them of all risk etc.
