"The lawsuit accuses podcaster John Dehlin of intentionally deceiving members of the church for his own benefit. The costs of defending himself against the lawsuit are sure to place enormous pressure on Dehlin and the Open Stories Foundation."
"In the days since the lawsuit became public, the ex-Mormon community has rallied around Dehlin, donating to a legal fund, championing his cause as a matter of free speech."
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints filed a lawsuit against the creators of the Mormon Stories podcast for allegedly using church trademarks and copyrighted materials. The church claims this usage could confuse individuals into believing the podcast is affiliated with or endorsed by them.

The case has garnered support from the ex-Mormon community, who view it as an infringement on free speech.
