The attorney for one-time Black Panther Party Chair Elaine Brown said her libel case against a lecturer at Emory University’s School of Law is not “not even close” to being over, despite being thrown out of court earlier this month.
In two orders entered Jan. 14, Fulton County, Ga., Superior Court Judge Christopher S. Brasher dismissed claims that statements made by Kathleen Cleaver in 2007 defamed Brown by characterizing her as an FBI informant in the 1970s. Cleaver is the widow of former Black Panther Party Minister of Information Eldridge Cleaver.
