dueling defamation suits. Boy those American's are interesting
Dominion will quietly drop their suits when they find that under the rules of discovery they have to hand over their proprietary system data, and that every state that used their machines will be subpoenaed to hand over the data that they are legally obligated to retain as voting records. Michigan destroyed their voting records illegally but Arizona, Georgia and some counties in Pennsylvania have had their records seized by law enforcement and the attorney generals have agreed to supply the data. It’s gonna get really interesting.
Totally agree, there’s no way they want to be subjected to the type of scrutiny discovery obligation would bring. They ‘re posturing , for appearance.

I don't think that would necessarily be the case. Dominion is suing Lindell for defamation. While this all revolves around the validity of the election, that isn't what this particular suit is about. It is about statements he made in regards to a company. The onus of proving the validity of his statements would be his burden, not the courts.
Now if Dominion was the defendant in a case over the accuracy of their machines and software, I could see that happening, but I would think there would have to be some significant evidence to first convince a judge to order such a thing.
If the overwhelming evidence Lindell claims to have does hold up in court, that would likely spur an investigation of their conduct in regards to election results. That would have nothing to do with the defamation suit and be an entire different case. If Lindell does actually have such evidence, what would be the benefit of not already releasing it?
Where this case may actually fall apart is Dominion proving that Lindell's statements had such a significant financial impact. Cancelled contracts, loss of sales, etc. Even if they do have such evidence, they would have to prove that it was a result of Lindell and not some other factor.
Pay up little boy
