Elliott Greenleaf has amended its complaint against a former partner and his new firm, Stevens & Lee, for his alleged remote access to the firm’s files to now include the theft of more files via portable drives and the misappropriation of escrow funds.
In early February, Elliott Greenleaf said former Harrisburg office managing shareholder William R. Balaban and two associates abruptly quit Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 to join Stevens & Lee. Elliott Greenleaf alleged that prior to Balaban leaving the firm, he and others deleted 5 percent of the firm’s backup tapes for Harrisburg client files, took 78,000 files from the firm’s computer system and installed Dropbox software that enabled Balaban continued access to Elliott Greenleaf’s computer network through remote access, according to the complaint.
