The so-called “Kraken” of the legal system has won a personal and professional victory in the Lone Star State. On Thursday, a Dallas-based court of appeals upheld a trial court decision that decided against any form of discipline for attorney Sidney Powell over her November 2020 lawsuits that sought “to prevent the certification of election results in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.”
In early 2023, the case was tossed on a defense motion to dismiss because of mislabeled evidence and several other deficiencies. A three-judge panel of Democratic Party judges said the problems with the case against Powell were even worse than that. “By its own admission, the Bar misidentified or failed to include multiple exhibits it claims to have relied on in its Second Amended Response,” the opinion by the Fifth District Court of Appeals reads. “But the deficiencies go far beyond mislabeling exhibits.”
According to the State Bar of Texas, Powell had no reason to believe the lawsuits she filed were not frivolous and she attached evidence from “wholly unreliable” sources to the complaints she filed. The quasi-governmental attorney ethics group also alleged that Powell relied on or made several false statements during her unsuccessful legal efforts to undo the results of the 2020 presidential election.
As it turned out, however, bar authorities could not prove their case because they relied on a poorly-constructed record. And when they later tried to amend their case, those efforts fell just as flat.
