Attorneys for lawyer Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell argued Thursday during a federal district court in the District of Columbia that a defamation lawsuit filed by elections technology firm Dominion Voting Systems should be thrown out.
As a result, their lawyers said the firm has to prove Powell and Lindell acted with malice when they made claims against the company after the Nov. 3 election, citing previous court cases that barred public officials from filing lawsuits against individuals who criticized them.
Dominion's attorney who filed billion-dollar lawsuits against the three, disagreed with that argument.
"Dominion doesn't administer elections. Election officials do using the tools made by Dominion That is a critical distinction."
Powell, Lindell, and several top Dominion officials appeared in the federal court.
"We are excited to see this process move forward to hold people accountable and defend Dominion's good name," said Dominion in a statement to The Epoch Times about Thursday's hearing.
Lawyers for Powell and Lindell argued that MyPillow and a fundraising website used by Powell shouldn't be able to be sued in Washington.
