Kanye West's brand 'Yeezy' sues former intern for information breach

Kanye West's famous clothing line, Yeezy, has gone to the courts after suing a former intern.

Ryan Inwards, who interned at Yeezy from January 2020 to July 2020, reportedly kept posting confidential pictures from the brand to his personal Instagram account.

According to the Yeezy team, Inwards was warned and sent notices a couple of times but he did not pay any heed to any of the warnings.

When starting his internship, Inwards legally signed an NDA which included a $500,000 liquidated damages provision. He was also subject to keep all of the brand information confidential.

As we speak, the case is presented to the Los Angeles County Superior Court.
