The lawsuit filed by the polygamous Brown family goes back to a courtroom on Thursday. But the plaintiffs, made famous by the television show "Sister Wives," can already claim some successes.

The Browns’ attorney, George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, issued a statement last week.
