Five new plaintiffs, being represented by Louisville lawyer Nader G. Shunnarah, have claimed that they were misrepresented and defamed by Breaking Cardinal Rules. These new plaintiffs were added to the previous lawsuit filed on behalf of Kyle Hornback, against Katina Powell. This first amended complaint adds new counts on behalf of five women who were identified, by mention, and through photos, in Katina Powell’s book. The women claim they did not give their permission for anyone, including Powell, the Indianapolis Business Journal, or Dick Cady to use their likenesses in the book. The women also claim Powell’s allegations that they had sex with University of Louisville basketball players and recruits for money are untrue.

In a statement to Reservations For Six, Shunnarah said:
“Today, we are filing a first amended complaint. We are adding five ladies to the lawsuit who were mentioned in the book “Breaking Cardinal Rules”. These ladies deny that they, were involved in any acts of prostitution, and they gave no authority for Katina Powell, IBJ, or Dick Cady to use their name or photographs.“
- Nader Shunnarah
In her book, and in an interview with Outside The Lines, Powell alleges that roughly two dozen girls attended the sex parties at the University of Louisville's Minardi Hall, and that all but about "roughly five or six" engaged in prostitution. These five new plaintiffs, deny ever having sex with players, recruits, or parents, and that the use of their image gives an impression otherwise. They are now pursuing money damages on a number of new counts, which were added to the lawsuit today.
