WASHINGTON — The long-running feud in the family behind the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus is about to run longer.
Circus CEO Kenneth Feld successfully defended himself this spring in a $110 million lawsuit filed by his sister, Karen, who claimed his private security guards assaulted her when they threw her out of their late aunt’s shiva. The jurors also rejected Kenneth’s Feld’s $10 million counterclaim against his sister for trespass at the aunt’s memorial service held at a Washington penthouse apartment he owned.Karen Feld filed a notice of appeal Thursday. Her attorney Steven Oster said there are several issues, primarily Kenneth Feld’s trespass defense. Oster said he believes a unit owner may never use force to eject someone from the common areas of a condo building.
