The United States District Court denied his request on the basis that Sibley, who has since been suspended from practicing law, had no legal right to hold the solicitation business’s records because Palfrey had fired him prior to her trial. In response, Sibley filed a personal lawsuit against both the former Chief Judge and the Chief Judge’s clerk for one million dollars each for failing to file his motion to lift the restraining order. Sibley also appealed to the United States Supreme Court, who denied his application.
