Alan Dershowitz asks judge to be excused from sanctions tied to Kari Lake's failed lawsuit

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

According to a report from the Pinal Central, famed attorney Alan Dershowitz has petitioned an Arizona judge to not be sanctioned for providing legal advice to Kari Lake for her lawsuit claiming the 2022 election was stolen from her.

The report notes that U.S. District Court Judge John Tuchi threw out the filings by Lake and fellow election denier Mark Finchem after ruling that their claims that "using tabulators can produce inaccurate results were little more than speculation, backed only by 'vague' allegations about electronic voting systems generally."

Following that ruling, Tuchi ruled that the pair’s attorneys were liable for legal fees incurred by Maricopa County in the amount of $141,690.

In his filing, Dershowitz stated he was only a consultant and not a participant in the failed legal maneuver.

8. This is bollocks. His name is on the complaints, just like the other attorneys

Parker, Olsen, and Dershowitz signed the original complaint, an amended complaint, and a opposition to a request for sanctions.

Including listing him as "pro hac vice", ie admitted to act as a lawyer not in their usual jurisdiction (which you wouldn't need to do for a consultant), and listed with the 2 others as "Attorney for Plantiffs".
