January 16, 2026
A Tennessee man has pleaded guilty to hacking the U.S. Supreme Court’s filing system more than two dozen times. Court records show that Nicholas Moore also admitted on Friday that he illegally accessed accounts belonging to AmeriCorps and the Veterans Administration Health System. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington, D.C., is scheduled to sentence Moore on April 17. Moore pleaded guilty to a one count of computer fraud, a misdemeanor that carries a maximum prison sentence of one year. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s office charged him last week.
