Clinton’s attorneys asked a federal judge on Wednesday to throw out the voluminous complaint against a number of Democratic Party actors and others.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crim...sedgntp&cvid=39e44f8eae6641f8977531ede5b05720“Whatever the utility of [Trump’s lawsuit] as a fundraising tool, a press release, or a list of political grievances, it has no merit as a lawsuit, and should be dismissed with prejudice,” Clinton’s attorneys David Kendall and David Oscar Markus wrote in the introduction of a 29-page motion to dismiss.
“The gravamen of [Trump’s] claims concerns alleged events occurring in 2016 and 2017, so the statute of limitations on his claims expired long ago,” the motion argues, citing the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure that governs dismissals based on “time-barred” claims.
