Discovery?
No proof of what she has asserted has ever been allowed in court, and I doubt that will change.
They have a slam dunk case against her.
The courts said she had no standing and kept her evidence out of the court on that basis.
Dominion just opened the door to the courts for whatever evidence she has plus everything Dominion has managed to keep to themselves so far.
The case won’t be about deciding the election but it will be all about what Dominion did and didn’t do.
“They have a slam dunk case against her.”
No, they do not.
Balding_Eagle, this is not an election lawsuit with “standing” problems aplenty. Sidney Powell automatically has standing to demand discovery by virtue of being named a defendant in a defamation lawsuit. If Dominion even tries to stonewall on discovery, the trial court will have no choice but to force discovery on Dominion. If discovery reveals facts that tend to prove that Sidney Powell is entitled to the defense of truth, the trial court will be forced to admit same into evidence and give on-the-merits consideration to Powell’s truth defense. Otherwise Powell is entitled to appeal up the chain as far as she needs to, up to and including SCOTUS, to vindicate her basic due process rights. That’s a fight Powell, of all people, is bound to win. Simply put, there is no contrary judicial precedent of any kind to justify that kind of behavior on Dominion’s part (hiding) or by the trial court (shielding). Dominion has no way to win without opening the kimono far enough to show that it’s been on the up-and-up this whole time, thus disproving Powell’s defense that she’s been doing nothing other than telling the truth.
Now that Dominion has filed its threatened defamation suit against Powell, it must either submit to discovery and let nature take its course, settle the case privately to the satisfaction of the Court, or drop its lawsuit with prejudice. There are literally no other ways that this suit can end, provided Powell does not give up, but instead fights for her rights. Do you doubt that she will fight?
Not even when it comes to defense in this lawsuit?
What part of “I doubt” supports “they have”?
Why not? Back in the ‘90s the government got Microsoft to cough up code. I would think Powell can get “Dominion” to do the same.
