According to the court filing, the health care provider suggested a class-action lawsuit over the data breach.
That would likely involve more than 100 people and could cost about $55 million.
LVHN also revealed that the hackers responsible for the breach demanded a ransom of over $5 million in February, which officials refused to pay.
