Project Veritas, which ousted its founder James O'Keefe earlier this year, has filed a lawsuit against O'Keefe alleging financial misdoings. Veritas is a 501c(3) not-for-profit that subsists on donations. The suit was filed in New York.
"Being known as the founder of an organization does not entitle that person to run amok and put his own interests ahead of the organization," the suit claims, alleging that O'Keefe "failed in his duties" to Veritas, thereby "causing it serious and significant damage."

Would really LOVE to know what collaboration was going on in both instances, with names.
Pedophiles everywhere are in power.
They’re giving him extra legal work to keep him busy for 2024 so he has less time to bust Dem fraud.
That’s exactly what this is. “Busywork”, meant to bankrupt.
They fired him. How could he have "failed in his duties"? How could he have caused them damage when they fired him?
O’Keefe “failed in his duties” to Veritas...
Well considering that they fired him, what the hell duties did they expect to receive from him?
Veritas is dead. Long live O’Keefe!
My, my, my… I’m guessing their funding is drying up and they’ve reached the DESPERATION phase of their decay.
ah yes the Dominion lawfare strategy.
I’ve tried to tell even my own family members that people take plea deals even is not guilty because it bankrupts them while the Feds have an unlimited budget.
Project Veritas tosses out its golden goose and then sues the goose for their losses?
And to enrich lawyers.
+1
Has Project Veritas come out with any further results of investigations of the sort O’Keefe regularly produced, since they fired him?
Yeah, they’ve been slamming Twitter like crazy trying to make it look like they’re still exposing people, but Twitter peeps ain’t buying it.
I’m figuring two things are afoot here:
1) this is busywork to waste his time on this instead of destroying the Liberal leftists the new rulers at Project Veritas want to win, and
2) I figure a good number of his OLD Project Veritas donors have probably started pulling pledged funding and the new rulers of Project Veritas are starting to realize the light at the end of the tunnel is actually a fast-moving TRAIN named “REALITY”!
They didn’t fire him. They “reassigned” him, keeping him on but not paying him.
It’s a way to silence him.
When managers fire someone they cannot blame that person for anything since they were the managers and were responsible for everything the person they managed ever did or did not do. Duh!
That is settled employment law.
Bingo
Seems O’Keefe may have a problem here. I would argue that his actions may be the best way to achieve objectives of the largest number of donors, but legally I think what might matter is whether his actions were in the best interests of the operation he was still employed by. Failing to terminate his employment with Project Veritas may have been a bonehead mistake.
In his favor, they can hardly claim that he was supposed to still be devoting his full time and energy for them while he was suspended. And Veritas isn’t competing for customers, like as if the head of McDonald’s was opening up his own burger chain. The fact that they may be competing for donor dollars should be legally irrelevant.
