Read previewTwo tribes are suing social media giants, accusing them of contributing to the high suicide rates among Native teenagers by purposely getting kids hooked on their platforms. The lawsuits name Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, and their parent companies, including Meta and Google as defendants. In collaboration with youth, mental health, and parenting experts, we built services and policies to provide young people with age-appropriate experiences and parents with robust controls. Other lawsuits have been brought over social media addiction, including by dozens of state attorneys general who sued Meta last year. However, these are the first lawsuits over social media addiction brought by federally recognized tribes, according to Robins Kaplan, the firm that filed the suits.

  + stars: | 2023-08-14 | by ( Blake Brittain | Thomson Reuters | Blake Brittain Reports On Intellectual Property Law | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
The lawsuit says Kennedy's screenplay and "Stranger Things" have several similarities in their characters, plot, dialogue and themes. Kennedy accused an artist who developed concept art for both his project and "Stranger Things" of sharing his work with the Duffer Brothers. Netflix and the makers of "Stranger Things" denied the allegations in court filings and said the stories are "objectively different" by "virtually every imaginable measure." "Most glaringly, Stranger Things features a core group of children who fight off evil monsters while navigating teenage social issues," the defendants said. The case is Irish Rover Entertainment LLC v. Sims, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, No.

Minneapolis City Council members voted on Thursday to settle the federal civil rights lawsuits filed by John Pope Jr and Zoya Code in May 2022. The lawsuits claimed racism and civil rights violations and stemmed from incidents dating back to 2017. Pope was 14 years old in 2017 when officers were called to his home for a reported domestic disturbance. Their lawsuits also named the city of Minneapolis as a defendant. He also pleaded guilty to related federal charges and is serving a federal sentence of 21 years concurrently.

Many plaintiffs' firms pay somewhere in between. Despite more law firms increasingly paying their top earners like professional athletes, many law school grads only make between $50,000 and $80,000 a year. Things do appear to be changing as more plaintiffs firms seek to compete with Big Law firm talent. But firms like Edelson that pay as much as Big Law firms are the exception.
