In a recent development, multiple attorneys representing Proud Boys members have been mandated to confront a fresh claim in a copyright suit initiated by a jury research company. The firm alleges that the attorneys have misused its reports to enhance their clients’ defense in relation to the January 6 insurrectionary actions. This ruling comes approximately two months after every attorney, with the exception of the individual who actually commissioned the report, had been excused.
The judgement was put forth by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., thus bringing the attorneys back into the litigation process for the intellectual property suit. The attorneys are now tasked with fending off this allegation in court, stemming from their alleged inappropriate use of the jury research firm’s confidential intellectual property.
