For inquires about how the 1st Amendment is entirely inapplicable in this situation because her employer is NOT the government and thus this is not a “free speech” issue in any way, please contact me, and actual civil rights and constitutional lawyer. Kthxbye
Today is an important day for me--I am filing a lawsuit against @lucasfilm & @Disney After my 20 years of building a career from scratch, and during the regime of former Disney CEO Bob Chapek, Lucasfilm made this statement on Twitter, terminating me from The Mandalorian: “Gina…
Uh my GF was just in Nebraska for work & Target had everything locked up like this too. I guess according to the logic of smarty pants here that must mean NE is also a “liberal hellscape” or something. But yes let’s blame the govt for the choice of a private co #makeitmakesense
Imagine “running into” Target or any other store to quickly grab a few essential items with your children on your way home from a busy day. Your kids are hungry, tired and cranky and now you have to wait an additional 20 min for a store clerk to unlock each item The people in…
“I try not to say nothing, the DA might want to play in court.” Some sound advice from @50cent circa 2003 that @realDonaldTrump and his lawyers should really follow. #lawyerlife #fifthamendment

11 years ago. Still 💯 relevant. I believe this as much now as I did then. 2 years after I posted this, I took a job as a civil rights lawyer and never looked back. #civilrights #lawyerlife #constitution
🚨🚨Press Alert 🚨 🚨Excited to have been quoted this morning in the @nytimes about the City’s inability to provide adequate medical care to those incarcerated on Rikers Island. Link in bio. #lawyerlife #rikersisland #justice #nyc nytimes.com/2022/08/06/nyr… nytimes.com/2022/08/06/nyr…

More coverage of our claims. “For years, chaos and disorder have been pervasive at Rikers Island. However...the city has repeatedly failed to address these issues, which has resulted in severe harm to the inmates and in Ms. Yehudah’s case, death.” tinyurl.com/r6kxv29m
We must not allow this to remain the status quo. “Somebody’s light bulb should’ve gone off at some point,” said Fuchs, the attorney. “The fact that it wasn’t is attributable to the chaos, disorder, and deliberate indifference that goes on at Rikers.” gothamist.com/news/legal-fil…
What happens inside Rikers is vile and inhumane. I'm proud of my friend @IlyssaFuchs for representing the family of Mary Yehuda and for seeking accountability. gothamist.com/news/legal-fil…
So glad to be seeking justice for Mary! I interned for @elizaorlins when I was in law school and of course learned from the best! #closerikers #justiceformary
Mary Yehudah was killed at Rikers due to gross negligence and medical malpractice. UNACCEPTABLE. @IlyssaFuchs so proud of your work holding them accountable. gothamist.com/news/legal-fil…
More coverage. #justiceformary
A notice of claim alleges Mary Yehudah suffered from untreated diabetes, and her death was a preventable consequence of the city's broken correctional health care system. gothamist.com/news/legal-fil…
More coverage of my latest filing.
