Sarah Palin Wins New Trial in Defamation Case Against New York Times
Aug 28, 2024, 04:37 PM
A federal appeals court has revived Sarah Palin's defamation lawsuit against The New York Times, granting her a new trial. The decision by the Second Circuit Court comes after the case was previously dismissed by U.S. District Judge Jed S. Rakoff. The appeals court found that the original trial had significant procedural errors, which undermined the reliability of the verdict. The lawsuit centers on a 2017 editorial that Palin claims falsely linked her political activities to a mass shooting incident. The court's decision emphasizes the importance of allowing a jury to determine the outcome of such cases.
