Attorneys for the family of Astroworld victim Ezra Blount are fighting with Travis Scott's lawyers over a gag order in the case.
In the latest filing on Friday , attorneys for the 9-year-old victim, Ezra Blount, said Scott must be prevented from carrying out a “highly sophisticated marketing campaign” and a “tone-deaf attempt to shift the narrative.”legal
The filings came amid a massive ongoing lawsuit over the Astroworld Festival, where a Nov. 5 crowd crush incident during Scott’s performance left 10 dead and hundreds injured. More than 2,800 concertgoers are suing Scott, Live Nation and other festival organizers, On Wednesday, the Blount family’s attorneys filed an emergency motion demanding that Scott be added to that publicity order. In the motion, they cited widespread media coverage the day before of Project HEAL, a $5 million charitable initiative launched by Scott to, among other things, “address the safety challenges faced by future large-scale events.”, said the promotion around Project HEAL was “designed to gain goodwill” and to hurt the victims’ “ability obtain a fair trial in this case.
“Rather than welcome Mr. Scott’s continued commitment to charitable causes in Houston, one of the lawyers representing Mr. Blount decided to publicly disparage him,” wrote, Scott’s lead counsel. “Plaintiffs’ motion … is a transparent and vexatious effort to restrain parties like Mr. Scott from exercising their constitutional rights.”
