Republican U.S. Senate candidate Kari Lake failed to keep Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer’s (R) defamation lawsuit on hold Tuesday, meaning the case move towards discovery and trial.

In an orders list, the Arizona Supreme Court, having denied Lake’s petition for review, rejected the attorneys’ fees request and ordered the stay lifted.

In December, Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Jay Adleman ruled that the election official’s defamation suit should move forward. While Lake claimed after her 2022 gubernatorial election loss that intentionally printed “misconfigured ballots” and 300,000 “illegal ballots” had made a mockery of the contest in Maricopa County, the judge found that Richer made “actionable defamation claim(s)” regarding “provably false” statements that a trial jury can determine are “either true or false.”
