The belongings included 'his grandfather's military service medals, a dresser that was handmade by his great-grandfather, and his deceased cousin's military gear and mementos.

The U.S. Department of Justice is suing the parent company of a moving and storage business for allegedly selling off all the belongings of a military service member who paid to store them.

The businesses allegedly didn't notify Cornacchio that he owed them any money until a month after it had auctioned off all of his possessions.The DOJ alleges that the moving and storage business' parent company—PRTaylor Enterprises, LLC, of Billerica, Massachusetts—violated the SCRA by failing to secure a court order before selling his stuff.The DOJ also alleges that the company didn't check if Cornacchio was a military member, something it was legally obligated to do.
