The Republican election denier failed to overturn November’s election – and now may face a penalty for a ‘frivolous’ lawsuit
In legal filings, Hobbs also pointed to a now-deleted tweet from Lake in which the Republican suggested the judge overseeing her lawsuit had acted unethically.
Hobbs subsequently joined a motion by Maricopa county for sanctions against Lake and her attorneys, in which the county deputy attorney, Thomas P Liddy, said the Republican filed a “groundless” lawsuit for a “frivolous pursuit”. The motion had “no basis in law or fact”, lawyers for Lake said on Monday evening, asking the court to deny the request.
Sanctions would be in the form of a financial penalty imposed for violation of a court rule or for misconduct.
