A large faction of the Michigan Republican State Central Committee voted earlier this month to oust party chair Kristina Karamo.
They say she fomented internal feuds, is an anemic fundraising, and took on mounting debt.
Karamo says the group can’t kick her out.
The latest twist is a cease-and-desist letter from Karamo, her executive director and general counsel to the group that voted to remove her.
It accuses the group of defamation and trademark and copyright infringement. It’s the first step toward a possible court action.
This is ahead of another meeting of the State Central Committee on Saturday with plans to vote on a new chair in an attempt to replace Karamo.
