The Delaware judge presiding over Dominion Voting Systems' $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News pushed back after attorneys for the network tried to get Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch out of testifying at next month's trial.
Judge Eric Davis rebuffed the network's lawyers' claim that Murdoch is too infirm to travel, citing a letter he received claiming that 92-year-old Murdoch could not get to Delaware to testify because of COVID, NPR reports.
