The saga surrounding Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp.’s so-called “lawyer ban” appears to be inching towards completion. The number of active lawsuits resulting from the controversial policy has dwindled down to just two. The company’s “lawyer ban” has been the target of numerous legal actions owing to accusations of civil rights violations.
Larry Hutcher, from the firm of Davidoff Hutcher & Citron, took center stage in this contentious battle, drawing a memorable parallel between his exploits and a biblical legend. “I was like Moses; I carried them to the promised land even if I didn’t go in,” said Hutcher.
Hutcher’s firm was the first to launch a lawsuit against the Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp over its policy. However, it has since been reported that Davidoff Hutcher & Citron has dropped their suit against the corporation.
As it stands, the so-called “lawyer ban” remains intact and continues to attract challenges, even as the volume of legal opposition appears to lose momentum. The exact outcome still remains to be observed as these last standing cases move ahead within the judicial system.
