Jussie Smollett scored a sizable win in his ongoing case stemming from an alleged hate crime in 2019.

Court documents obtained by Fox News on Friday heard a judge say he would not remove one of Smollett’s lawyers from the matter despite the fact he believes the attorney did, in fact, speak with brothers Abel and Ola Osundairo, the two men the actor allegedly hired to help him carry out a staged racist and homophobic attack.

In the ruling, Cook County Judge James Linn simply said that he would bar a member of Smollett’s legal counsel, attorney Nenye Uche, from questioning the brothers should the actor’s case go to trial – pressing that another member of the defense team would have to be the one to examine the acting pair if they were to take the stand.

Special Prosecutor Dan Webb argued that the alleged conversations between Uche and the brothers in 2019, shortly after Smollett said he was a victim of a hate crime, created a conflict of interest.

"Attorney Uche was found by Judge James Linn to have had confidential attorney-client communications with the Osundairo family," the memorandum obtained by Fox News reads.

Former 'Empire' actor Jussie Smollett claimed he was the victim of a January 2019 hate crime in Chicago.
