"The lawsuit alleges the access occurred multiple times in 2025, including after the couple lost access to their company-issued laptops, left the company and returned their devices."
"Stockton later attached the emails as exhibits in a lawsuit it filed in October against Ixonia Bancshares Inc., the Hoehns and other former employees."
"The plaintiffs claim Stockton used forensic data collection tools to access the accounts, pointing to metadata in the emails that they say indicates the messages were obtained through specialized software rather than normal access."
"Stockton, through counsel, has denied any unauthorized access, according to the complaint."
The lawsuit claims Stockton accessed the Hoehns' personal email accounts multiple times in 2025, even after their employment ended. Emails containing sensitive financial information were allegedly attached to public complaints without redaction. The Hoehns assert that Stockton used forensic tools to access their accounts, while Stockton denies unauthorized access, stating the emails were captured by a data loss prevention system. The Hoehns maintain they did not authorize such access and that company policies only allowed monitoring of its own systems.
