NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) â State attorneys have motioned for Chancellor Patricia Moskal to dismiss a second lawsuit against Gov. Bill Lee and executive orders heâs issued since the pandemic.
Attorney Bryant Kroll of The Blackburn Law Firm represents the transpotainment industry and Gary Humble as plaintiffs in their respective lawsuits. Humble also serves as the executive director for Tennessee Stands. A nonprofit social advocacy organization, working to protect the individual liberty of all Tennesseans.
On Friday, Kroll defended Humbleâs lawsuit which he first introduced this past August. Each lawsuit argues that Gov. Leeâs executive orders made it possible for county governments to in effect write laws such as a mask mandate.
