Federal Judge Dismisses Disney's Lawsuit Against Governor DeSantis

The dismissal marks a significant victory for DeSantis, emphasizing his control over Disney's operations in Florida.

A federal judge ruled that Disney lacked standing in its First Amendment lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, dismissing the case.
The lawsuit centered on the Florida government's revocation of Disney's special privileges, which Disney argued was retaliation for opposing the Parental Rights in Education Act.
DeSantis's victory is seen as a major win following his withdrawal from the presidential race, reinforcing his popularity in conservative circles.
Disney has appealed the decision, indicating the legal battle over its operations in Florida is far from over.
DeSantis's administration has taken steps to assert more control over Disney World, including the inspection of Disney Monorails by the Florida Department of Transportation.
