Trump ordered to answer questions under oath in BBC lawsuit https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmy0ryjx7741oA US judge has ordered President Donald Trump to answer questions under oath in his defamation lawsuit against the BBC by 11 December.Trump is suing the BBC over an episode of Panorama that edited together two different sections of a speech he gave before the riot at the US Capitol in 2021.Charles Tobin, a lawyer representing the BBC, said in court that "we still haven't been able to depose the plaintiff" with two months left in the discovery period.Trump cancelled a previous deposition on 16 October, citing "matters of national importance" while he was campaigning in Georgia.In US law, a deposition is an out-of-court statement made under oath in response to questions, which is recorded for use in later proceedings.The judge in the case, US Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett, said that Trump must sit for the deposition by 11 December, unless the discovery period is extended.Last week, attorneys asked that Lett compel Trump to face deposition after the last scheduled meeting did not take place.
On that day, Trump attended a midterms campaign rally in Dalton, Georgia and a fundraiser at his property in Mar-a-Lago in Florida.In a separate filing on Wednesday, Trump's lawyers said that the president could appear for the interview between 11 and 22 January next year, and claimed that the BBC was "wrong to claim that President Trump is avoiding his deposition in this action."Trump's lawsuit - filed in Florida - accuses the BBC of "intentionally, maliciously, and deceptively doctoring" the speech he gave outside the Capitol on 6 January 2021.The BBC apologised for the error and said that the broadcast gave "the mistaken impression that President Trump made a direct call for violent action".The broadcaster has since asked that the court dismiss the lawsuit, arguing that the programme does not meet the legal criteria for defamation and was not available in the US.In July, Trump's lawyers conceded that they had no evidence that the documentary was available in the US on the BBC's BritBox subscription service - as they originally claimed - or on the BBC's website, BBC select or through US broadcasters.Trump ultimately agreed to drop the lawsuit against BBC Studios, its commercial arm, after the BBC argued that it had "no role in creating or producing the documentary.

>>1544241trump has been implicated in another Pay 2 play scheme where his pardons are for sale this time by giving business to his lawyers
>>1544236>The judge in the case, US Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett, said that Trump must sit for the deposition by 11 December, unless the discovery period is extended.lol imagine listening to a black judge. Discovery will be extended.This isn't news.
>>1544351What's trump got to hide that he won't sit for a disposition in case he brought forward?
>>1544359I think he may be in the middle of midterms and fighting a war, or something.
>>1544363And yet he still finds plenty of time for weekly golf trips?
>>1544367yes. Depo prep takes days.
>>1544363but he is hurting every candidate he backs and he started the war. Maybe he should stop punching himself.
>>1544369get back to me after the midterms.
>>1544363Then he shouldn't have tried to sue the BBC to destroy free speech.
>>1544373Euros don't have free speech. And The BBC obviously maliciously edited the footage.I'm not sure what the liggerals think they have to gain as the more desirable deponent would be on the BBC side.
>>1544376>esl shill appears again here after all his ny post spam failed to slide this thread.Proof? Trump was clearing inciting his cult to attack the capitol as part of his coup.
>>1544371Okay, I will[make a note to get back to Anonymous after midterms]
>>1544379>Proof?The video was edited. It's literally on video you fucking crazy ass bitch.
Everyone else is sure that 1544376 the migger can't think.The US Constitution & law, thus Trump's influence, exists only within the boundary of the US Embassy on the Thames Embankment in London. BBC Broadcasting House is 4.4 miles away. One trillionth of an inch beyond that embassy's border, there's less than fuck all that Trump can do to them, least of all by those at that embassy. Putin had less power in UK when four years ago OFCOM removed RT's broadcasting license, thus denied Putin of the right to have opinions in that countryFun Fact: Even CIA, NSA & Secret Service operatives in the US Embassy have to get permission from UK government's Home Secretary to carry guns beyond that embassy's boundary. Who is the Home Secretary? Shabana Mahmood. Appointed to that cabinet post by Labour PM Andy Basedham.Trump supports Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia gets support from UK PM Burnham, who is pro-LGBTQ+, thus Trump and 1544376 are liggerals.
>>1544403Yo, is dis English?
>>1544382Do you really expect anyone to play the whole rambling video?If that's the case, the entire murdoch right wing propaganda empire can be sued to the ground.
>>1544241He has them on retainer, they get paid whether he's litigating or not.
1544404>O-o-oh no! I can't counter what >>1544403 says! I must speak like a retarded third worlder who can't understand English!Thanks for admitting you're an inferior esl shill, 1544404.>Yo, is dis English?Hey, is this English? Clearly not, thus 1544404 isn't American, and therefore is an inferior subhuman.
>>1544241>he just wants to pay lawyers money for nothing...and get everything else for free.
>>1544236BBC you say?
>>1544524Yes, Big Bullshitting Cucks.
>Big Bullshitting CucksAnd that's just Trump, Republican cultists and the likes of 1544537.
