This crazy attorneys are getting wilder. GIL needs to up his game. Suing Fitton for something Roger Stone said is bush league stuff now.

About the attorney. Among his accomplishments

Drafted, argued and won Motion for Summary Judgment in a premises liability dog bite case filed against a HOA management company involving a Pit Bull named King.

Oh goody. I missed having dog bite attorneys.

OAN Finally Admits ‘No Widespread Voter Fraud’ After Settling Defamation Suit

The right-wing cable network One America News Network on Monday ran a pre-recorded 30-second segment acknowledging that there was “no widespread voter fraud” by Georgia election workers in the 2020 presidential election. The segment appears to be part of a recent settlement relating to a defamation lawsuit brought against the network by two such workers.

The segment notes that an investigation by state officials into unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud made by ex-President Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani turned up nothing. “The results of this investigation indicate that Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ‘Shaye’ Moss did not engage in ballot fraud or criminal misconduct,” a narrator states.

10th Circuit agrees with dismissal of election lawsuit against Dominion

By MICHAEL KARLIK
May 27, 2022 Updated

The federal appeals court based in Denver has agreed with a trial judge's decision dismissing a lawsuit that claimed the 2020 election was rigged by Dominion Voting Systems, Facebook and others.

Eight voters from across the country filed a lawsuit after the 2020 presidential election alleging various types of election interference and seeking $160 billion in damages. In April 2021, U.S. Magistrate Judge N. Reid Neureiter dismissed the case after finding the plaintiffs had no standing, which requires a specific injury attributable to the defendants.

Claims of election fraud have failed to withstand scrutiny. The Associated Press reported in December that out of more than 25 million votes cast in six battleground states in 2020 — not including Colorado — there were fewer than 500 cases of voter fraud, far too few to influence the outcome.

Neureiter also imposed sanctions on the lawyers who brought the lawsuit, labeling the unsubstantiated allegations of fraud as "the stuff of which violent insurrections are made."

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit upheld Neureiter's dismissal order on Friday, without addressing the specific claims in the lawsuit.

"Accordingly, no matter how strongly plaintiffs believe that defendants violated voters’ rights in the 2020 election, they lack standing to pursue this litigation unless they identify an injury to themselves that is distinct or different from the alleged injury to other registered voters," wrote Judge Timothy M. Tymkovich in the panel's May 27 order.

Not so. When asked to provide their best evidence for the proposition that Dominion and Coomer are the same party, counsel for Defendants responded, “My best argument for that is that Dr. Coomer says he is Dominion.” Id. at 68:17–21. Coomer may have said that, but his saying it does not make it so. After all, Coomer is no longer an employee of Dominion.

Yet Defendants did not even try to show that Dominion could have properly filed this suit in Colorado. For starters, Defendants’ opening brief offers zero analysis on whether a Colorado court could exercise personal jurisdiction over them.

Defendants also do not devote a single sentence—in either their opening brief or their reply—to the question of venue (NL10 -this was mentioned in a section discussing jurisdiction).

Putting aside whether OAN may have forfeited this argument by not presenting it in its briefs,...

3. Counterclaim Defendants have managed to position themselves as purported crusaders for democracy while generating a financial windfall from Fox through litigation and distracting the public from the well-documented history of very real problems with Dominion voting machines, software, and technology. It’s a clever trick — Counterclaim Defendants have turned core political speech earnestly criticizing them into a valuable return on investment for Staple Street.

The complaint is too long and I am too unlawyerly for a short prècis but my impression of it is "waaahhh!!! not fair on us! we should be able to lie freely and spread hate!"

Now, as for the tautology of a short prècis…
