A judge ruled on Friday that Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News will go to trial next month, notwithstanding motions from both parties requesting that he decide the case in their favor before a jury weighs in.
Delaware Superior Court’s Judge Eric M. Davis denied motions for summary judgment from Fox News and parent company Fox Corporation. He granted some of Dominion’s competing motions while denying other aspects.
“We are gratified by the Court’s thorough ruling soundly rejecting all of Fox’s arguments and defenses, and finding as a matter of law that their statements about Dominion are false,” Dominion said in a statement. 'We look forward to going to trial." “This case is and always has been about the First Amendment protections of the media’s absolute right to cover the news," Fox said in its own statement."FOX will continue to fiercely advocate for the rights of free speech and a free press as we move into the next phase of these proceedings.”

Judge: Dominion defamation case against Fox will go to trialA voting machine company’s defamation case against Fox News over its airing of false allegations about the 2020 presidential election will go to trial after a Delaware judge allowed a jury to decide whether the conservative network aired the claims with actual malice, the standard for proving libel. Superior Court Judge Eric Davis ruled Friday that neither Fox nor Dominion Voting Systems had presented a convincing argument to prevail without the case going to a jury. But he also ruled that the statements Dominion had challenged constitute defamation “per se” under New York law. The decision paves the way for a trial to start in mid-April.
