David Karp Quoted in Law360: “NRA Wins Free Speech High Court Battle But May Lose Its War”
David Karp was quoted in Law360, in an article titled, “NRA Wins Free Speech High Court Battle But May Lose Its War.” The article discusses the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision allowing the National Rifle Association to proceed with its lawsuit alleging a former New York state official unlawfully pressured financial institutions to cut ties with the organization. The decision reverses the unanimous ruling of a Second Circuit panel, which held the NRA’s claims would not survive the state official’s immunity protections.
When asked about the qualified immunity claims, Karp stated, "This case, it's an odd one to take. Since the court didn't reverse the Second Circuit on that, normally they wouldn't take this case because the outcome may not change."
