Attorneys for Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli say the couple are "eager to clear their names" against "baseless accusations" in the ongoing college bribery case.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the law firm of Latham & Watkins is fighting to remain on the case after the government filed a motion saying the firm had a conflict of interest because they represent the University of Southern California in other unrelated cases.

The couple wants to keep the firm on the case, because they have represented Mossimo for two decades, want the same law firm to represent them.
