====2018 New York lawsuit ====
In 2018, the NRA alleged in an official court document that it suffered tens of millions of dollars in damage from actions of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the State's financial regulator.  The state's Department of Financial Services (DFS) was directed by the Cuomo administration to encourage institutions it oversees, insurance companies, banks and other financial services companies licensed in New York state, to review their business interactions with the NRA and "other similar organizations" and assess if they would pose "reputational risk".  The NRA's suit states that Cuomo's actions violate the organization's first-amendment rights and the NRA had suffered tens of millions of dollars in financial losses.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Fortin |first1=Jacey |title=N.R.A.

On November 3, 2023, the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] agreed to hear the case ''[[National Rifle Association of America v.

==== 2020 New York lawsuit ====
In August 2020, on behalf of the State of New York, Attorney General [[Letitia James]] sued the NRA and four individuals involved with the organization: CEO [[Wayne LaPierre]]; former chief of staff and the executive director of general operations Joshua Powell; former treasurer and [[Chief financial officer|CFO]] Wilson "Woody" Phillips; and corporate secretary and [[general counsel]] John Frazer. James charged the organization with illegal conduct, stating that the NRA mismanaged funds and assets and failed to follow state and federal laws. The suit claims that money was diverted away from its charitable mission, and instead used to fund personal expenses for senior leadership, resulting in a loss to the [[non-profit organization|NPO]] of $64 million over three years.<ref>{{Cite web |title=N.Y. attorney general files lawsuit that seeks to dissolve the NRA |url=https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/new-york-attorney-general-letitia-james-files-lawsuit-dissolve-nra-n1236009 |access-date=2022-06-17 |website=NBC News |date=August 6, 2020 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-04-20 |title=New York attorney general seeks to dissolve NRA |url=https://apnews.com/article/election-2020-ap-top-news-new-york-lawsuits-dc-wire-056b7845ad1a35a68a4bf837329d9f6f |access-date=2022-06-17 |website=AP NEWS |language=en}}</ref> While the NRA sought to dismiss the lawsuit, in June 2022, Manhattan judge Joel M.
