Rudy Giuliani’s attorney rehashed conspiracy theories and was light on evidence when pressed by a judge in a defamation suit brought by voting software firm Smartmatic (UPDATE)

Rudy Giuliani’s attorney rehashed conspiracy theories and was light on evidence when pressed by a judge in a defamation suit brought by voting software firmJoe Sibley of Camara & Sibley asked Judge David Cohen of New York State Supreme Court to dismiss six of the claims against his client because they constituted “product disparagement,” or calling the software lousy, not defamation.

Powell’s lawyer argued the NY court had no jurisdiction over her since she’s from Texas and “never came to New York to give any of the interviews.” Giuliani’s attorney rehashed conspiracy theories but was light on evidence when pressed by the judge. He asked that six of the claims against his client be dismissed because they were “product disparagement,” or calling the software lousy, not defamation.

In all cases the Smartmatic team charged, and opposing attorneys denied malice on the part of defendants for deliberately reporting or relaying information they knew was unfounded or inaccurate. “They were the President of the United States’ lawyers and even if they were subject to some doubt it does not … take away from the newsworthiness and First Amendment protection,” repeated Clement.

Smartmatic was basically characterized on Fox as a Venezuelan company under the control of corrupt dictators from socialist countries, the lawsuit said. “In their story, Smartmatic’s election technology and software were used in many of the states with close outcomes. And, in their story, Smartmatic was responsible for stealing the 2020 election by switching and altering votes to rig the election for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
