Alexis 'Ali' Berg

Alexis 'Ali' Berg is the named plaintiff in Berg v. Bryant, No. 2025-CP-10-03124 (Charleston County Court of Common Pleas); she initially filed under the pseudonym 'Jane Doe' and has publicly contradicted the account that prompted the lawsuit.

Alexis "Ali" Berg is identified in public court filings as the plaintiff in Berg v. Bryant, No. 2025-CP-10-03124, Charleston County Court of Common Pleas. She is described in public reporting as a former employee of Charleston businessman Patrick Bryant. She initially filed the lawsuit in May 2025 under the pseudonym "Jane Doe." Judge Donald B. Hocker subsequently declined to permit continued use of that pseudonym, and her name became public in the litigation record. Rep. Nancy Mace's January 2026 federal removal filing identifies her by name in the public case caption.

Connection to the Nancy Mace record

Allegations Mace presented to Berg, not Berg's independent account. According to reporting by FITSNews based on a leaked April 6, 2024 phone call between Berg and Rep. Mace, Berg stated she had no independent memory of the events Mace described to her: "Honestly, no memory of any of that," Berg said, according to FITSNews. Mace acknowledged Berg's lack of recollection on the call, reportedly saying: "I know, which is why you told me what your lawsuit was over the overtime, I was like, she doesn't know." FITSNews reported that Berg did not independently describe the alleged incident; rather, Mace introduced the specific characterizations before Berg responded. The April 6, 2024 call is the reported origin of Mace's direct contact with Berg on this subject.

Lawsuit filed, May 2025. Berg filed a civil complaint against Patrick Bryant, John Osborne, Eric Bowman, Pommer Group LLC, Assignment Desk Works LLC, and GLT2, LLC in Charleston County Court of Common Pleas. The case was assigned No. 2025-CP-10-03124. All allegations in Berg's complaint are Berg's contentions as plaintiff; the defendants deny them. The matter is unadjudicated.

Publicly named, late 2025. Judge Hocker ruled that Berg could not continue the case anonymously. The public case caption in filings from late 2025 onward identifies her as "Alexis Berg, Plaintiff." Rep. Mace's January 22, 2026 pro se letter to the court, and the February 2026 Amended Notice of Removal filed in federal court, also use her name, as reflected in publicly available documents.

Berg also named as a Third-Party Defendant. In Bryant's November 6, 2025 Third-Party Complaint, Berg is named as one of three Third-Party Defendants alongside Mace and Melissa Britton. The Third-Party claims against Berg are Bryant's contentions; Berg disputes them. The Third-Party Complaint also seeks dismissal from Berg's own lawsuit against Bryant.

Evidence the video was not in Berg's possession. FITSNews reported in January 2026 that Berg had testified she had never seen the alleged assault video, did not possess it, and had only learned of the alleged incident from Mace. Her attorney confirmed in court proceedings that no such video was in the plaintiff's custody or control, per FITSNews.

Related case: Assignment Desk Works, LLC v. Alexis Berg. A separate action, Assignment Desk Works, LLC v. Alexis Berg, No. 2025-CP-10-02671, is part of the same consolidated docket under Judge Hocker. That case involves a breach-of-contract/settlement-agreement dispute between Bryant's company and Berg. The cases are pending before Judge Hocker pursuant to a consolidation order issued by South Carolina Chief Justice John Kittredge in September 2025.

Gag order. Judge Hocker's November 26, 2025 gag order applies to parties in the consolidated litigation. All parties, including Berg, are subject to its terms as entered by the court.

All litigation described above was pending as of the date of this entry. No final judgment has been entered. The allegations on all sides, Berg's claims against the defendants, Bryant's Third-Party claims against Berg, and all other contested facts, remain unproven and disputed.
