The ruling grants Smartmatic partial summary judgment on the issue of falsity, leaving only two questions for a jury to decide: whether Lindell acted with actual malice and how much the company can recover in damages. Smartmatic is seeking damages in the nine figures. The case, filed in 2021, stems from Lindell's repeated claims that Smartmatic was part of a plot to steal the 2020 election from President Donald Trump.

Trump announced he was suing the Times for defamation and demanding $15 billion in damages in a Truth Social post late Monday evening.
There's a certain irony in the fact that President Donald Trump announced his silly $15 billion defamation suit against The New York Times scant days after a federal appellate court dismissed a similar claim against Fox News. That lawsuit was filed by Nina Jankowicz, the former head of the Biden administration's short-lived Disinformation Governance Board. The lawsuits suffer from a common defect: They seek to turn hyperbolic criticism of a government official into grounds for civil damages.
Donald Trump has sued the New York Times for, well, reporting on Trump. Rather than charging the Times with any specific libelous act, Trump's lawsuit is just another of his angry bloviations. The lawsuit says he's moving against one of the worst and most degenerate newspapers in the History of our Country, becoming a virtual mouthpiece' for the Radical Left Democrat Party. And so on.
Reporting in the book described Trump's multimillion-dollar inheritance from his father Fred C Trump as a product of fraudulent tax evasion schemes, and that Trump's father had been twisting the rules of federal programs used to support returning second world war veterans to build his fortune.
