NEW YORK — With less than one month until a trial is set to begin in the defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems against Fox News, attorneys from both sides are expected to seek a summary judgment during a pretrial hearing Tuesday.
The Delaware judge overseeing the case will hear arguments from both Fox and Dominion attorneys on their respective motions for summary judgments, during which both parties will essentially ask the judge to rule on the case before it heads to trial.
"A motion for summary judgment is a difficult motion to win. It's basically asking a judge to intervene and say, 'There's no need to take this case to a jury,'" Abrams said."I wouldn't expect that either party is going to win this case in summary judgment."In its filings, Dominion wrote that"Fox knew. From the top down, Fox knew 'the Dominion stuff' was 'total BS.
Ahead of the hearing, Dominion has submitted bombshell filings containing hundreds of emails, texts, testimony and other private communications from some of Fox's biggest stars and executives privately bashing former President Donald Trump and his election fraud claims while continuing to broadcast them on air.
