Tennessee man to plead guilty to hacking US Supreme Court filing system

A DataBreaches[.]Net report dated 13 January 2026 says a resident of Springfield, Tennessee, is expected to plead guilty to hacking the US Supreme Court’s electronic filing system dozens of times over several months. Prosecutors say that between August and October 2023, Nicholas Moore, 24, “intentionally accessed a computer without authorization on 25 different days and thereby obtained information from a protected computer,” according to a court document.

As of this writing, there aren’t any more details about exactly what information Moore accessed, nor how it was accessed. Moore is scheduled to plead guilty in court by video link on Friday. The article attributes the information to a court document and cites a report by Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai, with the broader note that the specifics of the accessed data remain unreported in detail.
