Deposition set for former DOR director in class action lawsuit

Lawyers for the plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit against former Department of Revenue officials will take the deposition of former DOR Direcdtor Trish Vincent, according to documents filed Wednesday in U. S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri.

The deposition is scheduled to take place in the Broadway State Office Building.

In the lawsuit, filed by Emily Roberts, Jefferson City, and Sarah Smith, El Dorado Springs, the issue is whether the Department of Revenue's decision to sell drivers' personal information to Source for Public Data and Shadowsoft violates the Drivers' Privacy Protection Act.

The lawsuit was certified as a class action earlier this week.
