A federal judge ordered sanctions against the attorneys of Kari Lake and Mark Finchem in their lawsuit against voting machines.
In a blistering 30-page opinion, a federal judge ordered sanctions against the attorneys of Kari Lake and Mark Finchem in their lawsuit against voting machines, hoping to deter"similarly baseless suits in the future."
In his order granting sanctions on Thursday, Tuchi delivered strong punches to the arguments that Lake, Finchem and their attorneys put forth in what he deemed a"frivolous complaint." There are"too many examples in recent years of attorneys trying to weaponize the court for political purposes," he said."It is wrong, it is unethical, and these attorneys must be held accountable if we are to protect our democratic republic."
Tuchi noted the lawsuit attacks the county's use of"optical scanners and ballot marking devices," even though 99.98% of Maricopa County voters marked their ballots themselves. "Plaintiffs and their experts may be entitled to opine about the sufficiency of the testing that Arizona's machines undergo, but they are not entitled to allege that no such testing takes place," Tuchi wrote.Tuchi also reviewed several other allegations in the lawsuit that were of concern but didn't meet the legal standard for levying sanctions.
