Preaching Profit: Church Lawsuits & Mary Cosby (Part 2)

Legal team, we’re still in Salt Lake City this week and diving back into Mary Cosby’s church saga. In part two, we’re unpacking the latest legal drama between Mary, Robert, and former associate Annie Lois Johnson. From the fiery demand letter they sent in May to a surprising email from Johnson’s alleged daughter-in-law, we break down what sparked this new lawsuit, how much money’s on the line, and why the timing is so curious.

What’s on the docket?

• The demand letter Mary and Robert sent to Annie Lois Johnson in May 2024
• The mysterious email we received from Johnson’s alleged daughter-in-law before the lawsuit was even filed
• What Mary and Robert are demanding — and how much they’re seeking
• Direct vs. derivative claims explained
• The court’s October 2025 ruling and what a “motion for a more definite statement” really means
• How the judge’s decision keeps parts of Mary and Robert’s case alive for now
