New York Times v. Sullivan

Roy Moore filed an emergency application with the U.S. Supreme Court to block an 11th Circuit ruling from taking effect, seeking to preserve an $8.2 million jury award he received in a defamation case against Senate Majority PAC. The 11th Circuit overturned the jury's verdict, which found the PAC defamed Moore by falsely portraying him in a campaign ad, and Moore argues the bond guaranteeing the award may be lost if the ruling becomes final before the Supreme Court reviews it.
