<p>，/PRNewswire/ -- Bradley 律师事务所的罗伯·福特、迈克尔·威廉姆斯和萨姆纳·福滕贝里在一起涉及核心言论自由和律师豁免保护的高调德克萨斯州州法院诉讼中为 Bradley 的客户赢得了驳回。2023 年 6 月 16 日和 23 日，德克萨斯州哈里斯县第 11 司法区的克里斯滕·霍金斯法官以偏见驳回了针对公司客户 Quinn Emanuel Urquhart &amp; Sullivan（&#34;Quinn Emanuel&#34;）的三起诉讼，这些诉讼指控其参与了从前律师托尼·布兹比的客户和员工中招募以对其提起诉讼的阴谋，涉及恶意诉讼、侵权干预和民事阴谋。</p>
<p>该案件于 2024 年 12 月提起，源于休斯顿审判律师托尼·布兹比与格莱美奖获奖说唱歌手、商人和唱片高管肖恩·卡特（职业名为 Jay-Z）之间的争议。在布兹比代表客户对卡特提出指控后，卡特否认了这些指控，布兹比的律师事务所和两名个人对一组被告提起了诉讼：卡特的律师、Quinn Emanuel，他的娱乐公司 Roc Nation, LLC，以及密西西比州律师玛西·克罗夫特及其律师事务所。诉讼指控被告共谋诱使布兹比的前客户和员工对其提起诉讼。布兹比律师事务所最初寻求对 Quinn Emanuel 的临时限制令（&#34;TRO&#34;），但 Bradley 说服法庭拒绝了这一请求。</p>
<p>随后，Bradley 根据德克萨斯州公民参与法（TCPA）寻求驳回对其客户的指控，该法是该州的反 SLAPP 法，允许被告迅速击败旨在惩罚或压制受保护言论的诉讼。福特、威廉姆斯和福滕贝里代表 Quinn Emanuel 辩称 TCPA 的保护适用，即使布兹比能够建立对 Quinn Emanuel 的指控要素，任何此类指控也将受到律师豁免原则的禁止。法庭全面批准了 TCPA 动议，驳回了布兹比的每一项指控，并裁定 Quinn Emanuel 有权获得为驳回诉讼而产生的合理和必要的律师费用。</p>
<p>Bradley 团队的其他成员提供了关键支持，包括律师劳伦·布莱克、贾里德·卡普兰、斯蒂芬·弗里茨、加纳·范斯、玛丽·格雷斯·惠滕和杰兰·桑德斯，以及助理专业人员安吉拉·戴维斯、米娅·布朗、拉蒂莎·霍恩和妮可·凯勒姆。</p>

<p>Bradley 律师事务所成功为客户 Quinn Emanuel 争取到在一起涉及言论自由和律师豁免权的高调德克萨斯州案件中驳回三起诉讼。法官 Kristen Hawkins 以有偏见的方式驳回了这些指控，裁定德克萨斯州公民参与法（TCPA）适用，并且律师豁免原则阻止了这些指控。法院还判决 Quinn Emanuel 获得其法律费用。此次诉讼源于 Tony Buzbee 和 Jay-Z 之间的争议</p>

<p>, /PRNewswire/ -- Bradley attorneys Rob Ford, Michael Williams, and Sumner Fortenberry secured dismissal for a Bradley client in high-profile Texas state court litigation in a matter involving core free speech and attorney-immunity protections. On June 16 and 23, Judge Kristen Hawkins of the 11th Judicial District Court for Harris County, Texas, dismissed with prejudice all three lawsuits against firm client Quinn Emanuel Urquhart &amp; Sullivan (&#34;Quinn Emanuel&#34;), which had been accused of barratry, tortious interference, and civil conspiracy arising from an alleged scheme to recruit attorney Tony Buzbee's former clients and employees to file suit against him.</p>

</div><p>Filed in December 2024, the case arose from a dispute between Houston trial lawyer Tony Buzbee and Grammy Award-winning rapper, businessman, and record executive Shawn Carter, known professionally as Jay-Z. After Mr. Buzbee asserted allegations against Mr. Carter on behalf of a client, which Mr. Carter denied, Mr. Buzbee's law firm and two individuals sued a group of defendants: Mr. Carter's counsel, Quinn Emanuel, his entertainment company, Roc Nation, LLC, and Mississippi attorney Marcy Croft and her law firm. The suit alleged that the defendants conspired to entice Mr. Buzbee's former clients and employees to bring claims against him. The Buzbee Law firm initially sought a temporary restraining order (&#34;TRO&#34;) against Quinn Emanuel, which Bradley convinced the court to deny.</p>

</div><p>From there, Bradley sought dismissal of the claims against its client under the Texas Citizens' Participation Act (TCPA), the state's anti-SLAPP law, which allows defendants to quickly defeat lawsuits brought to punish or silence protected speech. Mr. Ford, Mr. Williams and Mr. Fortenberry argued on behalf of Quinn Emanuel that the TCPA's protections applied, and even if Buzbee could establish the elements of a claim against Quinn Emanuel, any such claim would be barred by the attorney-immunity doctrine. The court granted the TCPA motions in full, disposing of each of Mr. Buzbee's claims and awarded Quinn Emanuel its reasonable and necessary attorneys' fees incurred in securing dismissal of the lawsuits.</p>
