Remember that crying Nazi, Cantwell?
He was crying because he had been served in a civil suit. I don't think it is going very well for him. His compulsion to post hate on social media is not helping.
Cantwell lawyers ask to be dismissed from UTR lawsuit
Attorneys for defendants Christopher Cantwell and Robert Ray in a lawsuit stemming from the Unite the Right rally have filed to withdraw as counsel.
In a filing Thursday, attorneys Elmer Woodard and James Kolenich asked the court to dismiss them from the Sines v. Kessler case, citing difficulties with their clients. The suit was filed by local victims of the rally against its organizers.
Cantwell has been accused of sending threatening messages to plaintiff attorney Roberta Kaplan over the Internet. Because of this, Woodard and Kolenich believe they have good cause to withdraw as his counsel.
“As a result, Mr. Cantwell has rendered Attorney’s continued representation of him unreasonably difficult, has created a conflict of interest between himself and Attorney’s other clients, and has engaged in conduct Attorney’s consider ‘repugnant or imprudent,’” Kolenic and Woodard said in the filing.
