Judge awards $252,480 to musician who canceled Kennedy Center performance

TL;DR

A Washington DC superior court judge ordered the Kennedy Center to pay musician Chuck Redd $252,479.70 in legal fees and costs.
Redd canceled a Christmas Eve performance after the Kennedy Center's board voted to rename the institution "The Donald J Trump and The John F Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts."

The Kennedy Center spokesperson stated the organization intended to appeal the recent ruling.
