☆ In a blow to the NRA, judge allows New York's attorney general to seek a court-imposed monitor and demand Wayne LaPierre forfeit millions
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-30 | by ( Laura Italiano | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

A court ruling Thursday lets New York's attorney general continue to seek stiff penalties from the NRA. AG Letitia James is suing CEO Wayne LaPierre for millions in back salary; she also wants the NRA subjected to financial monitoring. "It's really just interference with his ability to do his job the way his members want him to do it, in the way his board wants him to do it," LaPierre attorney P. Kent Correll said. "You have the attorney general of a state trying to interfere with the operation of a not-for-profit organization — that happened in the '50s," Correll told the judge. The NRA is attempting to read the law "so narrowly" that no attorney general would ever be able to monitor "how funds are used by an organization such as this," the judge said.

Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the National Rifle Association (NRA), speaks at the NRA-ILA Leadership Forum during the National Rifle Association (NRA) annual convention in Houston, Texas, U.S. May 27, 2022. REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton/File PhotoNEW YORK, Sept 22 (Reuters) - A federal appeals court on Thursday ordered the dismissal of a National Rifle Association lawsuit accusing a New York regulator of stifling its speech by pressuring banks and insurers to stop doing business with the gun rights group. A lower court judge in March 2021 dismissed all claims apart from two free speech claims against Vullo, but the appeals court said those should have also been dismissed. The NRA, which is incorporated in New York, faces a separate investigation by state Attorney General Letitia James into alleged corruption within the group. The case is National Rifle Association of America v Vullo, 2nd U.S.

Petiția a fost înregistrată în Dallas și listează active și pasive de câte 500 de milioane de dolari, scrie Digi24. Procurorul general din New York, Letitia James a cerut dizolvarea asociației. Letitia James a replicat spunând că „statutul financiar cerut acum de NRA este în acord și cu statutul său moral - falimentar”. Ea a adăugat că New York nu va permite acestei organizații să se folosească de tactici legale pentru a scăpa de asumarea responsabilităților sale. Un raport care detaliază cheltuielile imense făcute de Wayne LaPierre, șeful organizației, a fost publicat în 2019 și a stat la baza deschiderii cazului de către James.
