By doing so, Lake conceded legal liability while avoiding potentially damaging public disclosures during the discovery phase. https://azmirror.com/2024/03/26/kari-lake-gives-up-and-wont-defend-herself-in-stephen-richers-defamation-lawsuit/ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/27/kari-lake-defamation-lawsuit https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/26/kari-lake-defamation-lawsuit-damages/
