Kirsch & Niehaus, PLLC Wins Dismissal of All Claims Against Ja Rule Arising from Fyre Festival Litigation

On November 7, 2019, Paul Niehaus of Kirsch & Niehaus PLLC won a full dismissal, with prejudice, of all claims against Ja Rule in a putative class action arising from the infamous Fyre Festival. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York had earlier dismissed most of the claims against Ja Rule, but had provided plaintiffs with a final opportunity to replead a handful of claims. Plaintiffs were unable to do so, and the court’s ruling effectively ends the litigation as against Ja Rule. The full opinion may be found here, and a Law360 article on the ruling may be found here.
