to try to evade accountability for spending abuses, which he and the NRA have denied.

Ms. James sued to dissolve the NRA in August and is seeking to either have the chapter 11 case thrown out or to bring in an independent trustee to take charge of the NRA in bankruptcy. The trial concluded Monday with closing arguments in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Dallas that outlined vastly different visions on what should happen to the 150-year-old group. New York and federal authorities as well as the NRA’s former ad agency contend the not-for-profit is badly mismanaged and an independent fiduciary is needed to reign in Mr. LaPierre.

The NRA, meanwhile, said Mr. LaPierre and his prodigious fundraising are its most valuable asset, that its board is independent and that it has a plan to bolster its corporate governance and restructure its affairs through chapter 11, setting up operations in what it says is the friendlier jurisdiction of Texas.

NRA's bankruptcy case 'deserves dismissal,' NYAG lawyer says in closing argumentsNRA 'intentionally deceived' its board of directors when it filed for bankruptcy protection in January and its Chapter 11 case should be dismissed, an attorney for NY Attorney Gen. Letitia James argues. Who is Phillip Journey? Was he elected last year? Im a life member and literally in the dark. The only time I get an email or letter is when its time to vote new board members in or they want money. Ive never been sent an email or letter containing election results. As long as Trump is in touch with this Association, any Bankruptcy claims should be deemed a scam. He must have tutored them. They're not 'intentionally deceived.' They've been 'intentionally misled' for a long time, and for good reason. They are not morons. They are ultra-rich.
