Trump's Kennedy Center Name Change Sparks Endless Litigation for Lawyers Across America
Jonathan Turley, an attorney for Donald Trump, predicts that his client's decision to rebrand the Kennedy Center after Trump, will lead to ongoing litigation for years to come. The change could potentially invalidate several high-profile contracts and events held at the institution since Trump took office.
Jonathan Turley, a lawyer who advised President Trump on the name change at the John F. Kennedy Center, said that the new naming will keep lawyers busy for years due to its potential impact on non-profit law and tax implications. The rechristening, prompted by Trump's desire to distance himself from the Democratic president, has sparked debate over whether it constitutes a formal renaming or a cosmetic tweak. The move may require significant updates to existing contracts, donor agreements, and other legal documents. Turley is likely to be involved in advising clients on these changes for years to come.
