White Sox Statement

April 27th, 2023

On Wednesday, an Illinois Circuit Court Judge dismissed with prejudice all of Brian Ball’s remaining claims against the Chicago White Sox related to Ball's termination in 2020. In his February response to the Club's Motion to Dismiss, Ball voluntarily dismissed all claims against General Manager Rick Hahn personally, as well as two of Ball’s original five claims against the Club. With yesterday’s ruling, the Court dismissed the remaining three claims against the Club, thereby closing the matter, unless there is an appeal of the Court’s ruling. In addition to in-house counsel, the Club also was represented by Clifford R. Perry III and Brian K. Jackson of the Chicago law firm Laner Muchin, Ltd.
