Here’s a weird one: Democratic state Sen. Catherine Miranda is accusing the State Bar of retaliating against a lawyer who helped her sue her late husband’s nephew for defamation, the Republic’s Jason Wolf reports. The lawyer, Sheree Wright, has filed multiple discrimination suits against the Phoenix Suns on behalf of four current and former team employees, and the Suns are trying to discredit her by pointing to a whole lot of problems she has had with the Bar, including in the case where she represented Miranda. But Miranda stood up for Wright in a letter to the Bar, saying the fact that her case is being brought up shows a “deliberate attempt to publicly challenge Attorney Wright’s credibility and, by extension, discredit my own name and reputation.” (June 24, 2025)
