Breyona Holt Files a Federal Copyright Lawsuit on September 29, 2026, in the Northern District of Illinois – Alycia Bella for Vogue Photography, Copyright Claims, Schedule A Defendants, and Docket Updates 


Breyona Holt filed a federal copyright infringement lawsuit on September 29, 2026, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The lawsuit reportedly concerns the unauthorized reproduction and commercial use of a copyrighted photograph associated with Holt, an American photographer, creative director, and visual artist known for her expressive portrait photography. 


The lawsuit was filed against defendants identified through Schedule A, a format commonly used in intellectual property enforcement actions involving multiple online sellers and e-commerce businesses. 


Third-party reporting identifies Holt's photograph Alycia Bella for Vogue as the copyrighted work involved in this dispute. The allegations reportedly concern unauthorized reproduction of the image on merchandise advertised or sold through online marketplaces. 


The precise copyright claims, accused products, and defendant identities should be confirmed through the complaint and supporting exhibits.
