A D.C. Superior Court Judge has awarded an historic Black church control over the Proud Boys trademark after the group defaulted on a $2.8 million judgment.
The Monday ruling grants rights to the trademark of the far-right group's name to the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church as well as barring the Proud Boys members from selling any merchandise with the group's name or symbols without the church's consent. The ruling also allows the church to try to seize any money made from selling the group's merchandise.
