A New York judge has allowed Roy Moore to proceed with his defamation case against comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, over a prank that he claims portrayed him as a paedophile.
Federal judge Andrew Carter denied a motion from Cohen, Showtime and CBS to dismiss the $95m (£75.6m) lawsuit filed by both Mr Moore and his wife, Kayla Moore.
Mr Moore, the former chief justice of the Supreme Court of Alabama, and a failed Senate candidate in the state, featured in a segment of Cohen's show Who is America? in 2018.
Pre-order Klayman’s It Takes a Revolution: Forget the Scandal Industry! (coming Oct. 27)
How to wage a peaceful revolution to restore rule of law, ethics, and morality to the nation
With a title that satirically mocks Hillary Clinton, this book details how our executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government have become thoroughly corrupt and failed the citizenry. This work is a call to arms during these times of crises, when government corruption has hit a “cancerous state.” The overriding message is that Americans should turn off cable news, get up off of the couch, and join the second American Revolution to restore the greatness of our nation in these perilous times.
