You have to sue the NEW YORK Times in NEW YORK........
Actually, she didn’t have to sue the NYT in Mew York. She could have sue in prettyuch any US District Court in the Country since the NYT is sold in every State in the Country.
I’ve wondered why she or her attorneys didn’t select a much more favorable state.
Once a case goes to a jury, a judge almost never dismissed the case prior to a verdict. If a judge decides to dismiss on a JNOV after the verdict,the appeals court has something on which to base the jury verdict and damages awarded.
