U.S. judge orders lawyers for Kari Lake, Mark Finchem to pay Maricopa County's legal fees because their suit 'furthered false narratives' about elections.
Howard Fischer Capitol Media Services PHOENIX — A federal judge ordered the lawyers for two failed GOP candidates to pay Maricopa County's legal fees because they filed a"frivolous" lawsuit that furthered"false narratives" about elections.

Financial penalties are appropriate in"frivolous'' cases like this, Tuchi said, one in which he said Lake and Finchem, with their attorneys,"baselessly kicked up a cloud of dust.
Tuchi said the lawsuit was factually wrong on several fronts, starting with the claim Arizonans do not now vote by hand on paper ballots. More problematic, Tuchi said, is that Lake and Finchem"cherry picked'' the findings of that audit conducted by the Cyber Ninjas firm. The attorneys failed to conduct the kind of inquiry that court rules require before filing a lawsuit and forcing those they sue to have to defend themselves in court, he said.
