War Photographer Sued Agence France-Presse For Stealing His Photos, AFP Seeks Lisbon Out

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell book
BBC - Honduras - CIA Trial book - NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 19 – War photographer Leong Francisco Paulo sued Agence France-Presse for stealing his photographs from Libya, Syria, Ukraine and elsewhere. 

 On September 19, 2022, the case was re-assigned to new U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Jennifer L. Rochin, and Leong filed opposition to AFP's motion to dismiss (and send the case to Portugal).

  Leong submitted a declaration, spotted in the docket by Inner City Press that day, that he filed in the US "because I was able to find a lawyer in the US that could take my case on contingency."

 He noted that the AFP employee who terminated him was Patrick Rahir, AFP's Bureau Chief in Madrid, not Lisbon.   

 The case is Paolo v. Agence France-Presse, 21-cv-11209 (Rochon).
