Ryan Upchurch, a popular country music singer and YouTuber, has been involved in several lawsuits in recent years.
In 2019, Nicole Arbour, a Canadian comedian and internet personality, filed a defamation lawsuit against Upchurch, alleging that he had defamed her in several of his songs and YouTube videos. Arbour claimed that Upchurch’s lyrics and videos had caused her emotional distress and had damaged her reputation. The lawsuit was eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount.
In 2022, Upchurch was sued by the family of Kiely Rodni, a 16-year-old girl who disappeared from a party near Tahoe National Forest in California. The family alleged that Upchurch had spread false information about the case and had interfered with the investigation. The lawsuit is still ongoing.
In addition to these two high-profile lawsuits, Upchurch has also been involved in a number of smaller legal disputes. These disputes have involved allegations of copyright infringement, trademark infringement, and breach of contract.
Upchurch has denied all of the allegations against him and has maintained his innocence. He has also said that he is being targeted by people who are trying to silence him.
