Filing 174 ORDER: The Clerk is directed to docket the attached documents, to supplement the record in this case. Exhibit A is an instruction sent by email to members of the jury on Saturday, February 12, 2022 admonishing them again to avoid any media coverage of the trial. Exhibit B is correspondence between the Court and counsel for the parties regarding case law germane to Defendants' Rule 50 motion for judgment as a matter of law. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 2/16/2022) (kv) |
Filing 173 VERDICT FORM..(kv) |
Filing 172 ORDER: It is the Court's uniform practice after a verdict has been rendered in a jury trial to have the Court's law clerk inquire of the jury as to whether there were any problems understanding the Court's instructions of law, so that improvements can be made in future cases. Late yesterday, in the course of such an inquiry in this case -- in which the jury confirmed that they had fully understood the instructions and had no suggestions regarding jury instructions for future cases -- several jurors volunteered to the law clerk that, prior to the rendering of the jury verdict in this case, they had learned of the fact of this Court's Rule 50 determination on Monday to dismiss the case on legal grounds. These jurors reported that although they had been assiduously adhering to the Court's instruction to avoid media coverage of the trial, they had involuntarily received "push notifications" on their smartphones that contained the bottom-line of the ruling. The jurors repeatedly assured the Court's law clerk that these notifications had not affected them in any way or played any role whatever in their deliberations. The Court also notes that when it proposed to the parties, during oral argument on Monday morning, to render its Rule 50 decision later that day but to permit the jury to continue deliberating so that the Court of Appeals would have the benefit of both the Court's legal determination and the jury's verdict, no party objected to this plan. Nor did any party object when the Court reconvened later that day, outside the presence of the jury, and the Court indicated that it was prepared to issue a Rule 50 decision at that time. Indeed, no party objected to this procedure at any time whatever. Nevertheless, in an excess of caution, the Court hereby brings the foregoing facts to the parties' attention. If any party feels there is any relief they seek based on the above, counsel should promptly initiate a joint phone conference with the Court to discuss whether any further proceedings are appropriate. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 2/16/2022) (kv) |

Minute Entry for proceedings held before Judge Jed S. Rakoff: Hearing Out of Jury Presence held on 1/24/2022, Minute entry for proceedings held before Judge Jed S. Rakoff: Hearing held on 1/24/22. Present for the plaintiff: Kenneth Turkel, Michael Munoz & Shane Vogt, present for the defendant: David Schulz, Jay Brown, David Axelrod, Thomas Sullivan for the defendant, and a court reporter. Due to Plaintiffs positive tests for COVID-19, the trial is adjourned to 2/3/22. The Court ruled on the parties motions in limine, setting forth its reasoning on the record. The Court denied Defendants motion #159 for a ruling that the challenged statements are not defamatory per se, without prejudice to Defendants raising the issue again at the charging conference. The Court granted Defendants motion #132 to exclude the testimony of Plaintiffs damages expert. The Court granted in part and denied in part Defendants motion #137 , granting the prong of the motion seeking to exclude evidence about James Bennets departure from the New York Times but denying the rest of the motion without prejudice to reraising the objections if the evidence is offered. The Court denied Defendants motion #135 without prejudice to reraising the objections if the evidence is offered, except that the Court granted the aspect of Defendants motion seeking exclusion of articles concerning the Plaintiffs child. The Court denied Defendants motion #140 regarding case management issues, but the Court will read the jury a preliminary instruction immediately after opening statements are finished. The Court heard argument on and finalized the text of that preliminary instruction. Plaintiffs motion #129 is denied as moot, but each partys counsel shall identify for opposing counsel any objected-to, proposed exhibits they intend to reference during their opening statements. The Court will rule on any remaining objections to such exhibits before the start of trial. The parties shall file a joint, final, and binding list of witnesses in likely order of appearance on 2/1/22.

Filing 158 ORDER: The Court has just learned that, based on a new safety protocol that will be implemented imminently, no one may unmask in the courtroom -- even in the HEPA-filter-outfitted witness and attorney boxes -- unless they have tested negative for COVID-19 using an approved molecular diagnostic test. (Antigen tests are not approved.) If a person will be removing his or her mask on successive days, the person may test on an every-other-day schedule; otherwise, the speaker must test negative on the day of his or her appearance. If a speaker has had a confirmed case of COVID-19 (verified by either a doctor'snote or a viral test result) within the prior ninety days, he or she will be exempted from these testing requirements. Confirmation of negative test results (or of a prior case of COVID-19) must be provided to the Court through its staff, as further set forth in this Order. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 1/23/2022) (mml) |

Filing 66 MANDATE of USCA (Certified Copy) as to #62 Notice of Appeal, filed by Sarah Palin. USCA Case Number 17-3801. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that the judgment of the district court is VACATED and the case is REMANDED to the district court for further proceedings consistent with this Court's opinion. This judgment is nunc pro tunc to October 15, 2019, the date the Amended Opinion was filed. Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk USCA for the Second Circuit. Issued As Mandate: 12/09/2019.

Filing 65 AMENDED OPINION OF USCA as to #62 Notice of Appeal, filed by Sarah Palin. USCA Case Number 17-3801-cv. This case is ultimately about the First Amendment, but the subject matter implicated in this appeal is far less dramatic: rules of procedure and pleading standards. Sarah Palin appeals the dismissal of her defamation complaint against The New York Times ("the Times") for failure to state a claim. The district court (Rakoff, J.), uncertain as to whether Palin's complaint plausibly alleged all of the required elements of her defamation claim, held an evidentiary hearing to test the sufficiency of Palin's pleadings. Following the hearing, and without converting the proceeding to one for summary judgment, the district court relied on evidence adduced at that hearing to dismiss Palin's complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). We find that the district court erred in relying on facts outside the pleadings to dismiss the complaint. We further conclude that Palin's Proposed Amended Complaint plausibly states a claim for defamation and may proceed to full discovery. We therefore VACATE and REMAND for proceedings consistent with this opinion. Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk USCA for the Second Circuit. Certified: 10/15/2019. (nd) |
