SPLC’s Frivolous Lisa Miller Appeal Suffers From Lack of Evidence

BURLINGTON, VT – Liberty Counsel filed a response brief to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals asking it to uphold a lower court’s summary judgment that exonerated Liberty Counsel and awarded it a complete victory in a civil lawsuit over false allegations of conspiracy to aid in international kidnapping.

In Jenkins v. Miller, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and its client Janet Jenkins are appealing the judgment. The case centers around Jenkins who was awarded legal parent status to the daughter of her former spouse Lisa Miller in a custody battle, whereafter Miller subsequently fled to Nicaragua with her daughter until she turned 18. While Jenkins falsely alleges Liberty Counsel was involved, extensive investigation clearly shows that Liberty Counsel did not know about and was not involved in Miller’s disappearance and urges the appeals court to “put an end to this baseless ligation.”
