The CEO of the parent company of Sesame Place didn't show up for a meeting on Friday, which resulted in more tension between the company and the family.
The lawyer says the family is tired of talking after only legal counsel and representatives for the company attended the meeting.
"To appease the Brown family and the community at large, we were presented with the illusion that SeaWorld Entertainment wanted to "do right" and mediation was what they were going to do," the Brown family attorney said in the release.
"However, what was labeled a mediation this week, shifted to a meeting where the Browns were able to voice their concerns and then offered a sandwich and cookies," he said.
In a video posted to social media by Brown's mother, her daughter and niece were seen being waved off by an employee in a costume.
In August, the Brown family and the Rev. Jesse Jackson met with executives from Sesame Place and the parent company of the show, according to CBS.
The Brown family was invited to visit the park again, but they declined the offer, according to a CBS report.
LaMarr accused the company of not giving an update on the status of the employee.
A $25 million class action lawsuit against the owners of Sesame Place was announced by another family, and a lawyer for the Brown family said they are still considering all their options.
"After nearly two months of engagement, it has become evident that the leadership at SeaWorld Entertainment does not respect the political power of African-American civil rights leaders and their outreach within the community."
They don't respect the African-American dollars that make Sesame Place profitable.
