A lawyer facing felony charges in Michigan for allegedly improperly accessing voting equipment post-2020 election has been disqualified from representing a key funder of election conspiracy theorists being sued by Dominion Voting Systems. Stefanie Lambert was representing Patrick Byrne, founder of Overstock.com, in a defamation case lodged by Dominion.

Lambert was ousted from the case after confessing to leaking thousands of confidential discovery documents that were meant to be kept private. U.S. District Court Judge Moxila A. Upadhyaya stated in a 62-page opinion that the shared documents, once private, had now become public due to Lambert’s actions.

Following the incident, Lambert’s lawyer expressed intentions to appeal the decision. Patrick Byrne, on the other hand, mentioned through a text message to The Associated Press that they will appeal and view the situation as a strategic error by the opposition.

Lambert previously admitted to passing Dominion Voting Systems records to law enforcement and attaching leaked emails to a filing in her case. Dominion requested Lambert’s removal from the Byrne case for breaching a protective order placed by Upadhyaya on case documents.

In addition to her legal troubles with Dominion, Lambert also faces charges for accessing voting machines and transmitting data related to the 2020 election. Lambert pleaded not guilty to all charges. She had also unsuccessfully sued to overturn Trump’s loss in Michigan. Dominion has filed defamation lawsuits against individuals spreading election-related conspiracy theories, with the lawsuit against Byrne being one of several the company has initiated against high-profile election deniers.
