IMG, doing business as Cathedral Health Care Center, an Indiana-based healthcare management group, has been accused of violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Michele Petry filed the class action lawsuit after a false background check report caused her to be denied for employment. The company refused to provide a copy of the report, which showed multiple felonies that Petry did not commit. The lawsuit includes those job applicants who were denied employment without being provided a copy of the report or consumers’ rights in the past five years. This could include hundreds – possibly thousands – of applicants.
