I'm sure they are, but I'm also sure they aren't going to allow the opposing side to go on a fishing expedition.

I'm sure this is correct as a statement but if you're suing someone for the kind of money being discussed there has to be a fairly substantial recourse in gathering evidence to defend oneself. How "substantial" that is in court remains to be seen.

I'm sure Powell and any future co-defendants will be given ample opportunity to present their arguments for discovery.

Sue them all!! They already threatened the mighty Fox News and they had to rescind the lies they told regarding Dominion. Good for them

Nope she produced nothing thus far won’t argue that. And she made some pretty damn big claims too. But as hogg said I’d expect she’s gonna get some latitude to press now 😎

She's filed four different lawsuits that contained arguments based on her claims about Dominion. All four were dismissed, all four cited a lack of evidence, and all four denied her the opportunity to analyze the voting machines.

While she is the defendant as opposed to the plaintiff in this suit, unless some additional evidence has been discovered in the 30 days since her last dismissal, I fail to see an argument for discovery that is going to produce a different outcome.

I think it’s mostly theater. $1B lawsuit against an individual? Can they setup payment plans? Regardless at least two parties want to see a case in the courts now unless they are expecting her to settle for $100M? 🤷‍♂️

No doubt the amount is pure spectacle. She'd obviously never be able to pay it, and I can't imagine that any judge/jury would award it. However, there is a comprehensive breakdown of the claimed damages in the brief, and they're incredibly significant. It will be hard to argue that Powell wasn't trying to completely end Dominion's business.

Good, now they will get to look at their machines and systems.

You think they would sue for over a billion if there was even a sliver of a chance the machines were rigged?

I imagine Trump will also be getting sued by them sometime soon after Jan 20.

Don't know, the number is probably put that high to scare her into settling for a public apology.

They're not going to be getting 10 figures, but I don't think they're going to settle for an apology. They already sent her multiple C&Ds and she pubicly ridiculed those demands. The apology train has left the station.

Glad to see the idiots are thinning out on this board. Obviously there isn’t much left to defend.

Dominion will probably present their own machines for inspection since this is a defamation case. They clearly don’t have anything to hide. Great for both sides. Complete transparency and more excuses removed from the ignorant.

True facts do not slow the conspiratorial theorists. There is always the ensuing “what if” lurking around each ensuing corner

Here’s the flip side of the First Amendment in action. You can say whatever you want. But! There are consequences. If you slander someone financial damages are recoverable. That’s why Fox retracted. Dominion should not have settled for retractions. They should litigate everyone especially Trump on 1-21-2021

That’s not how it works. First you didn’t make the statement against me so I can’t bring suit against you. If you did make the statement against me I would have to be able to prove you damaged me for a suit to gain transaction. “Damage” would mean either my reputation or you cost me money through incorrect your assertions. This is the quick simple answer

You just insinuated that Trump and everyone should be litigated. .I could claim that Biden poilicy hurt me financially through taxes, illegal immigrant policy caused me personal harm, regulation killed my business or whatever.
