Moore sued five people over what he said were false and malicious allegations intended to damage his campaign for the U.S. Senate in 2017.
The Alabama Supreme Court on Friday affirmed lower court decisions in a defamation lawsuit filed by former state Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore and counterclaims against Moore.in Etowah County over allegations of sexual misconduct decades earlier that surfaced during Moore’s campaign for the U.S. Senate in 2017.
In Friday’s decisions, the state Supreme Court upheld rulings from the Etowah County Circuit Court dismissing Moore’s defamation claims against Deborah Wesson Gibson and Richard Hagedorn. The lawsuit accused Gibson and Hagedorn of promoting a conspiracy to spread false rumors. The Supreme Court did not issue written opinions. Five of the nine justices recused themselves, so several judges from other appeals courts took part in the decisions, which were without dissent.
In 2022, a Montgomery County jury heard the defamation case of Moore accuser Leigh Corfman against Moore and Moore’s countersuit against Corfman.
