Dominion Voting Systems, which was sold last year to a former GOP election official and is now called Liberty Vote, said it “agreed to a confidential settlement.”

The company formerly known as Dominion Voting Systems is ending its $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against MyPillow and its CEO, Mike Lindell.

The voting machine company, which was sold last year to a former GOP election official and is now called Liberty Vote, agreed to dismiss the long-running lawsuit in a federal court filing this week.

“The parties have agreed to a confidential settlement to this matter,” a Liberty Vote spokesperson said in a statement Wednesday.

The agreement reached this week stated that all parties in the lawsuit will bear their own legal fees and costs. Lindell estimated his legal fight with Dominion cost him about $20 million.

Dominion Voting Systems filed the defamation lawsuit against Lindell and MyPillow in 2021 over Lindell’s discredited claims that the company rigged the 2020 election for Joe Biden.

The company also accused Lindell, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump, of waging his election fraud crusade to boost MyPillow sales and to raise his political profile.

In an interview Wednesday, Lindell said the lawsuit’s dismissal is “great news” for his Shakopee-based company.

“This has been five years of just an attack on MyPillow and myself,” said Lindell, who is running as a Republican for Minnesota governor.

Lindell is facing House Speaker Lisa Demuth and GOP-endorsed retired health executive Kendall Qualls in the August primary election. While recent polling shows him lagging well behind the presumptive Democratic nominee for governor, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, he has outraised Qualls.

Lindell still faces a federal defamation suit from Smartmatic, another voting technology company that won a summary judgment against Lindell last fall. Monetary damages will be decided at trial.

$20 million?

The US Legal System remains an expensive joke.

There should be caps and limits on what lawyers collect. Seems like the majority of money in any suit are the legal fees.

The article says the company was purchased and they elected to drop the lawsuit for a settlement.

Was anything he said even proven to be even remotely true, including the nonsense that DeSantis won his re-election in 2022 because of fraud? What is the point of thanking someone for being "steadfast" about things that aren't true?
