On May 30, 2026, BAM filed a lawsuit
The Utah case was filed on May 27, 2026, not May 30.
Full reasoning
Utah court records show the civil case was filed May 27, 2026. The filing receipt for Utah Case No. 260402353 says "05-27-2026 Case filed by efiler" and lists the complaint and TRO motion as filed that same day. KSL also reported that "on May 27, Bricks and Minifigs and its owners filed a lawsuit in Utah's 4th District Court" against Schneider, Mansell, and others. So the article's May 30 filing date is three days late.

However, on May 27, Bricks and Minifigs and its owners filed a lawsuit in Utah's 4th District Court against Schneider, Mansell and others involved
He is scheduled to appear in court on June 8, 2026.
Contemporaneous court reporting said Schneider's next hearing on the misdemeanor charges was July 1, not June 8.
Full reasoning
A June 2, 2026 KSL report on the Utah criminal case states: "His next hearing on the misdemeanor charges is on July 1." That directly conflicts with the article's claim that he was scheduled to appear on June 8, 2026. Because the Wikipedia text presents a specific hearing date, and a contemporaneous court report gives a different one, the June 8 date is incorrect.
