FILE-Brittany Tichenor-Cox speaks during an interview on Nov. 29, 2021, in Draper, Utah. The family of a Black fifth grader in Utah who died by suicide last year plans to file a $14 million lawsuit against her school, arguing that an inadequate response to reports of her being bullied over her race and disabilities led to her death by suicide. Attorneys representing Brittany Tichenor-Cox on Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022 said they would seek damages for the 2021 death of her daughter, Isabella 'Izzy' Tichenor.
