The Boston Crusaders situation was not comparable to the Cadets. Bankruptcy court is not the issue here.   Unlike BAC, the Cadets are a defendant in civil litigation  relating to sexual harassment and worse.  It is THAT  court case which could place Legacy in jeopardy since the judge already ruled that any future organizations adopting  Cadets history, iconography or imagery may also be liable for the civil penalties. 

They're taking a heck of a chance, imo.

i believe in previous posts they have already clarified their research into what they can and can't do legally.

I'm not a lawyer though I've watched very episode of "Law and Order" multiple times and most episodes of "Law and Order SVU," so at time I feel like I'm a detective, judge, and lawyer, so that's the basis of my legal expertise.

Did the judge in the Cadets case overstep his/her authority. It sounds like that's the case since this was a bankruptcy court and not a criminal court, but it depends on the law where the trial took place. While one poster (dcifanforlife) mentioned that those organizing Legacy has "purchased" some of the concerns mentioned by Crown 1990, will it stand if the situation is challenged and will court cases be the best use of funds? I understand loyal alums of the Cadets want the "legacy" of the corps to continue, and I understand those who want to show that the Cadets is more than its tragic ending, but I don't see that happening. The other questions would be will fans see it as a legacy of the Cadets and will young people know enough about the historical Cadets to want to join?

i'm sure future history nights will spell out the "Legacy" and Name the Holy forefathers

They're missing a huge opportunity if they don't start with this:

I see no issue here and "Legacy" I'm sure has their own legal counsel.

The creators of Laverne and Shirley might take issue with that "L" on the uniforms.

Their first show as a World Class corps will be an homage to the Angels and Demons called "Schlemiel and Schlimazel."
