The letter, addressed to lawyers at the New York Times and Penguin Random House, arrived a week before the election. Attached was a discursive ten-page legal threat from an attorney for Donald Trump that demanded $10 billion in damages over “false and defamatory statements” contained in articles by Peter Baker, Michael S. Schmidt, Susanne Craig, and Russ Buettner.

At one point, an officer walked into an MRI room, past a sign warning that metal was prohibited inside, with his rifle “dangling… in his right hand, with an unsecured strap,” the #lawsuit said. The MRI machine’s magnetic force then allegedly sucked his #rifle across the room, pinning it against the machine. MRI machines are tube-shaped scanners that use incredibly strong magnetic fields to create images of the brain, bones, joints and other internal organs.

The US Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit previously issued an administrative stay that delayed enforcement of the rules for a few weeks, which didn't necessarily indicate much about the judges' view of the lawsuit. But on Thursday, the judges issued an order that stays the net neutrality rules until the court makes a final ruling, and judges made it clear they believe the Internet service providers have a stronger case than the FCC.

Major book publishers continue their legal crusade against Internet Archive's scan-and-lend library, hoping to shut it down for good. IA's appeal previously received support from authors and copyright scholars. The publishers, however, have some heavyweight backers too. New amicus briefs are signed by former U.S. politicians, former judges, and legal scholars. Industry groups such as the MPA and RIAA also rally behind the publishers.

Former Kentucky swimmer #RileyGaines was among more than a dozen college athletes who filed a lawsuit against the NCAA on Thursday, accusing it of violating their Title IX rights by allowing transgender #woman #LiaThomas to compete at the national championships in 2022.
The #lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Atlanta, details the shock Gaines and other swimmers felt when they learned they would have to share a locker room with Thomas at the championships in #Atlanta. It documents a number of races they swam in with Thomas, including the 200-yard final in which Thomas and Gaines tied for fifth but Thomas, not Gaines, was handed the fifth-place trophy.

#Clinton v. Jones #Case Summary
By Laura Temme, Esq. | Legally reviewed by Joseph Fawbush, Esq. | Last reviewed August 29, 2023
..."Paula Corbin Jones filed a #lawsuit in 1994 alleging that #President Bill Clinton had sexually harassed her when he was governor of Arkansas. By the time she filed a sexual harassment lawsuit, he was president -- and claimed the presidency made him #immune to civil #litigation.
The case led to an important ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1997. It also propelled former White House intern Monica Lewinsky into the national spotlight when court documents became public.
The #SupremeCourt held that nothing in the #Constitution protects the president from civil lawsuits while they are in office. And President Clinton was eventually impeached for lying under oath."...

"I will stand up in scourt and fight this; and if Shell refuses to stop #drilling, I refuse to stop fighting for #climate #justice," one #activist named in the #suit said.
The most powerful have always tried to abuse the law for their own purposes in order to prevent protests against #injustice. This has forced the protest #movement into the #underground and strengthened #resistance. In the French #Revolution, the powerful were ultimately surprised by the pent-up #anger against the abuse of the #law.

"State attorneys general in 41 states and the District of Columbia sued Meta today. The move comes after the conclusion of a multistate probe launched in 2021, where a bipartisan coalition of state enforcers began examining how Facebook and Instagram features are designed to allegedly addict and harm kids."
