A California court has dismissed a lawsuit against Northern Data, the German-listed crypto and IT infrastructure company, after two former directors voluntarily withdrew their claims of unfair dismissal.
Joshua Porter and Gulsen Kama had claimed in June that they were sacked by Northern Data after raising concerns about alleged fraud and tax evasion. Northern Data has refuted the allegations.
The company said in an emailed statement:
We are pleased to confirm that this lawsuit has been dismissed. Both Gulsen Kama and Joshua Porter have acknowledged that they misunderstood/misstated the facts related to the complaint. Importantly, they have both confirmed that they were not fired for whistleblowing. As we stated from the outset, integrity and transparency are at the heart of everything we do and these were completely baseless allegations against the company.
The order to dismiss dockets are here and here.
