A recent court ruling requires the Kennedy Center to cover legal expenses totaling over $250,000 for jazz musician Chuck Redd. This decision follows Redd’s withdrawal from a scheduled performance after the venue’s board decided to rename the building in honor of President Donald Trump.
D.C. Superior Court Judge Tanya Jones Bosier issued the order on Monday. The judge mandated the center to pay $252,000 in legal fees to the attorneys representing Chuck Redd. Redd had been a longstanding performer at the center’s annual Christmas Eve concert.
