A procedural vote could happen Wednesday to try and continue the debate of a possible repeal of Arizona's abortion law.
PHOENIX — Even though Kari Lake filed to default in Stephen Richer's defamation lawsuit against her, the fight isn't over yet.
Last month, after the Arizona Supreme Court rejected Lake's appeal, Lake's attorneys filed to default in the lawsuit, essentially admitting to Richer’s claims of defamation. Richer’s side has claimed damages could be in the millions, which Lake’s team has denied in court filings. Richer’s attorney, Daniel Maynard, is asking the judge for a discovery phase, so they can, in part, access some of Lake’s electronic records, like emails, to better determine the extent of the damage."What we need discovery on is the reach and impact of these false statements that they have admitted were false," Maynard said."They knew they were false."
