'In a letter sent on Tuesday to MSG Entertainment, which also owns Radio City Music Hall, the office of Letitia James said it had reviewed reports suggesting that thousands of lawyers across 90 firms had been banned from the company’s sites, violating
civil rights law.

Last year, New York lawyer Larry Hutcher sued MSG in state court, alleging that the company had revoked his basketball season ticket and banned him from several venues after he began representing ticket resellers in a separate case against the business.

Several other attorneys involved in litigation against MSG Entertainment told a Delaware court in November that they too had received letters barring them from MSG venues — a policy the judge in that case called “the stupidest thing I’ve ever read�
��.

The move by the New York attorney-general came days after state senators introduced a bill designed to close a legal loophole and prohibit “wrongful refusal of entry” at sporting events.

“MSG’s use of facial recognition technology . . . is an unacceptable invasion of the privacy of all their patrons, and a blatant attempt to intimidate and bully those who might want to pursue their day in court against the company,” state
senator Liz Krueger said on Monday.' https://www.ft.com/content/57a16cc9-26ec-4024-8981-56eb05a0eec6
