Clare Locke – the Law firm pioneered Dominion’s lawsuits against Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and pillow magnate Mike Lindell – seven lawyers from Texas-based law firm Susman Godfrey were recently brought in who have litigation against the so-called “Kraken” charges, which include one-off Trump claims. Attorneys Filed Lin Wood and Sidney Powell: “There is great synergy between the work the Susman team did in the 2020 election and the defamation cases we pursued for Dominion,” said Tom Clare of the notoriously aggressive law firm Clare Locke to The Daily Beast: “When these discussions a We also found that the two companies share a great cultural similarity in having a litigation approach to litigation, ”he added. “I think it will be a very effective team.” Dominion’s addition to its legal team is the latest effort to punish leading players in the month-long propaganda spree, ruining the company, and unfoundedly attacking the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential contest on Friday, Fox News was told of a $ 1.6 billion lawsuit affected. “Fox News Media is proud of our 2020 election coverage, which is in the highest tradition of American journalism and will vigorously defend itself against this unsubstantiated lawsuit in court,” the company said in a statement. Other conservative media outlets like Newsmax and One American News Network – which also broadcast post-election conspiracy theories and is a top target for Dominion’s next round of lawsuits, according to two people familiar with the matter. Justin Nelson – a Susman attorney helping in Dominion’s defamation cases against Sidney Powell, Mike Lindell, and Fox News – represented Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobb against a lawsuit filed by Lin Wood, Sidney Powell and other lawyers against Arizona election officials against Kraken to overturn Joe Biden’s victory in the state A judge who “put the 2020 general election results aside” included many of the false allegations Dominion said was defamation, including that All Dominion uses software from Smartmatic, a separate electoral technology companies, and Dominion was “founded by foreign oligarchs and dictators to provide computer-aided ballot-filling and vote manipulation” to help Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez steal an election in the country. At the time, Nelson called the Lawsuit an “attack on democracy”, arguing that Wood Powell and others “used the federal judicial system to undermine the rule of law and obtain breathtaking, astounding, and unprecedented relief to overthrow them.” Will of the people. “Susman’s attorneys also have litigation experience on a number of high profile defamation cases. Davida Brook, who signed the case against Powell, Giuliani and Lindell, previously represented Melanie Kohler, a Los Angeles woman who accused director Brett Ratner of rape in a Facebook post that has since been deleted. Brook represented Kohler after Ratner filed a defamation lawsuit against her. Ratner then withdrew his lawsuit. Brook also represented actress Amber Heard, who was sued by ex-husband Johnny Depp after she wrote a Washington Post statement that Depp alleged falsely implied “domestic violence against her” targets or potential Dominion’s legal wrath targets have taken cover or even deleted articles or covered their tracks. Others have reliably remained defiant, claiming that a legal battle and the associated discovery would instead lead to the humiliation of Dominion. Lindell, who was also a major funder of pro-Trump attempts to undo President Biden’s decisive victory in 2020, previously told The Daily Beast that he had hired private investigators to investigate “filth” and evidence of foreign entanglements on both Dominion and Dominion also dig up on Smartmatic, and that he was hoping to counterclaims in the coming weeks. People familiar with the matter say the company’s legal team still hadn’t ruled out targeting ex-President Trump, but a final decision had not yet been made on whether to open that can of worms to the former free world leader wanted. During his tenure, Trump personally advocated the same conspiracy theories and lies that electoral technology executives and their lawyers claim have seriously and unfoundedly damaged their businesses and put them at risk with numerous death threats. Former President Trump is still facing an avalanche of separate lawsuits, investigations, and criminal investigations, including those based on suspected sexual assault, his family-run business empire, the bloody attack on the Capitol on January 6, and his broader anti-democratic efforts in the wake of the 2020 election. For the past few months, Trump – who no longer enjoys the legal protections that come with the presidency – has privately joked that his enemies are investigating and “sue me for the rest of my life.” Read more at The Daily Beast Get our top stories in your inbox every day.
