Reply to comment by drpvn in James Dolan’s facial ID tech snags another lawyer who says he was booted from Knicks game by PichuLovy

Going after lawyers seems especially risky.

They've gotten away with it so far. And the publicity it's getting may be doing what Dolan intended for it to do - which is make lawyers question if they want to take on a case that sues MSG Entertainment.

Hi, lawyer here - if I were subjected to this treatment because of the firm I worked at, and I weren’t even affiliated with the case, I’d absolutely file a complaint.

And indeed, many attorneys in New York State already have

Hahaha from the complaint: "The odds of an individual plaintiff discussing the subject of the litigation with that MSG employee are astronomical. There are better odds of being struck by lightning or the Knicks winning the NBA championship this year."

Not just lawyers, but entire law firms which then effects all of their attorneys.

Sure, State Attorney and all can do something, but that could take months/years and barely result in that much compensation for missing events/experiences, especially the best ones with your kids during the Christmas season

Has he heard of the Streisand effect?

Dolan is such a distasteful brat.

People keep saying this but I don't see it. He's worth $2bn. He can afford a few frivolous legal challenges.

James Dolan has enough money to force people to sit through his shitty music as an opener for bands like the Eagles and the Rolling Stones. He'll buy as many lawyers as he needs to, to fuck over anyone that tries.
