National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre had a particularly rough opening day in court on Monday, as the lawyer for the New York attorney general's office called the NRA's bankruptcy case nothing more than a "masterclass in bad faith and dishonest conduct." The pro-gun organization was in court attempting to move forward with filing for a bankruptcy petition in Texas, in hopes of evading a lawsuit from New York Attorney General Letitia James.

The day of setbacks for the NRA in court began with the organization starting from a not-so-great set of circumstances. Deadlocked in a war of words between James, the NRA's former president Oliver North and former NRA advertising and PR agency Ackerman McQueen, the group had plenty of foes in court on Monday, with its future on the line.

Law & Crime summarized ahead the legal battle Monday:
