Overview
- U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols has given Mike Lindell until Friday to submit sealed financial documents substantiating his claims of insolvency.
- Lindell, who owes over $50,000 in sanctions to Smartmatic, claims he cannot pay due to $70 million in combined personal and business debt.
- The IRS is reportedly garnishing Lindell, who says he has been forced to lay off employees, lose warehouse leases, and auction assets.
- Smartmatic has filed a motion to hold Lindell in civil contempt, alleging he has avoided paying the court-ordered sanctions for months.
- Lindell told the court he is living off $1,000 a week and has no access to credit, claiming he is in the process of liquidating his remaining assets.
