After evading attempts for weeks by a civil process server that included being pursued over state lines, ex-Donald Trump lawyer Sidney Powell was served with a $1.3 billion lawsuit at her home in Biltmore Forest, according to recently filed court papers by Dominion Voting Systems.
Dominion filed the defamation lawsuit against Powell Jan. 8 in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. But attempts to officially serve the Texas-based attorney with the summons took until Jan. 28, said attorneys for the company. Powell evaded service of process for weeks, forcing Dominion to incur unnecessary expenses for extraordinary measures to effect service, including hiring private investigators and pursuing Powell across state lines, according to a Feb. 9 answer to Powell s request for more time to respond to the complaint.
