Reuters) – Law firm Loevy & Loevy will remain as co-lead counsel in a proposed class action against facial recognition startup Clearview AI Inc, a Chicago federal judge said this week, after a split between the firm and one of its former lawyers created “disarray” over their roles in the case.
U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman affirmed in her Nov. 23 order that she had appointed the Loevy firm “as a whole” last year, rather than individually appointing attorney Scott Drury, a former Illinois state representative who left the firm in September to run a solo practice.
