Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre appeals defamation lawsuit dismissal against Shannon Sharpe.
Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre is asking an appeals court to reinstate his defamation lawsuit against fellow Pro Football of Fame member, former tight end Shannon Sharpe. The lawsuit was dismissed by a federal judge in Mississippi in October, stating Sharpe's comments on a sports broadcast were within the bounds of constitutionally protected free speech. Favre's lawyers argue that Sharpe accused Favre of theft, and the lawsuit should be reinstated.
