Business personality Kevin O’Leary has recently been at the center of two high-profile legal battles involving defamation.
商業名流凱文·奧利里近期因兩起備受矚目的誹謗法律訴訟而成為焦點。
By July 2026, the legal landscape surrounding O’Leary shifted significantly, moving from a courtroom victory to a challenging new lawsuit.
到了2026年7月，奧利里所處的法律環境發生了顯著變化，從法庭上的勝利轉向一場充滿挑戰的新官司。
Earlier in 2026, O’Leary successfully sued crypto influencer Ben “BitBoy” Armstrong.
在2026年初，奧利里成功起訴了加密貨幣網紅班·「BitBoy」·阿姆斯壯。
Armstrong had falsely accused O’Leary and his wife of criminal behavior related to a 2019 boating accident and encouraged public harassment.
阿姆斯壯曾錯誤地指控奧利里及其妻子與2019年的一起船隻事故有關的犯罪行為，並煽動公眾進行騷擾。
A federal judge eventually ordered Armstrong to pay $2.8 million in damages for the harm caused.
聯邦法官最終判決阿姆斯壯需賠償280萬美元以彌補造成的傷害。
However, O’Leary is now the defendant in an active lawsuit filed in Utah.
然而，奧利里目前在猶他州面臨一項正在進行的訴訟，這次他是被告。
Two local political groups allege that O’Leary defamed them during media appearances while promoting a data center project, the “Stratos Project.”
兩組當地政治團體指控奧利里在媒體公開露面、宣傳名為「斯特拉托斯計畫」（Stratos Project）的資料中心項目時誹謗他們。
The lawsuit also names Fox News as a defendant for airing the unsubstantiated claims.
這場訴訟也將福斯新聞（Fox News）列為被告，因為該媒體播出了這些未經證實的說法。
Although some retractions were issued, the plaintiffs argue that their reputation and safety were already compromised.
儘管部分指控後來被撤回，原告方主張他們的名譽與安全早已受到損害。
These two cases highlight how defamation claims can impact public figures, placing them on both sides of the courtroom.
這兩起案件凸顯了誹謗索賠如何影響公眾人物，讓他們同時站在法庭的兩端。
