A New York judge has tossed Sarah Palin's libel lawsuit against The New York Times because her lawyers failed to produce evidence that the newspaper knew what it wrote about her was false or acted recklessly.
US District Court Judge Jed Rakoff made the ruling on Monday afternoon as the jury deliberated where the Times defamed her by linking her to a 2011 shooting spree in . However, he said he will allow the jury to deliberate to a verdict, but will dismiss the case once it has done so.
He will order the dismissal of Palin's lawsuit, but enter his order after her jury finishes its own deliberations. Rakoff said he expected Palin to appeal, and that the appeals court 'would greatly benefit from knowing how the jury would decide it.'
