4th US Circuit Court upholds 2021 ruling, voiding NBA star Zion Williamson's contract with unlicensed marketing agent Gina Ford in 2019.

4th US Circuit Court of Appeals upholds 2021 ruling about NBA star Zion Williamson's contract with a marketing agent being void. The agent, Gina Ford, was not licensed in North Carolina at the time of the agreement in 2019. A federal judge found that Ford's lack of licensing shielded Williamson from penalties related to breaking the contract.
