Court Concedes DNC, Wasserman Schultz Rigged Primaries For Hillary
The Washington Post trumpeted the news: "Florida judge dismisses fraud lawsuit against DNC," read the Aug. 25 headline.
“To the extent Plaintiffs wish to air their general grievances with the DNC or its candidate selection process, their redress is through the ballot box, the DNC’s internal workings, or their right of free speech — not through the judiciary,” Judge William Zloch, a Reagan appointee, wrote in his dismissal of the class-action lawsuit. “To the extent Plaintiffs have asserted specific causes of action grounded in specific factual allegations, it is this Court’s emphatic duty to measure Plaintiffs’ pleadings against existing legal standards. Having done so ... the Court finds that the named Plaintiffs have not presented a case that is cognizable in federal court.”

The Observer quoted Jared Beck, "one of the leading attorneys representing the plaintiffs in the lawsuit," who explained how a "motion to dismiss" works.
And there's the crux: the court "acknowledged that the allegation were well pled."

The Observer quoted Jared Beck, "one of the leading attorneys representing the plaintiffs in the lawsuit," who explained how a "motion to dismiss" works.
“The standard governing the motion to dismiss requires the court to accept all well-pled allegations as true for purposes of deciding the motion. Thus, the court recited the allegations of the Complaint that it was required to accept as true, and in so doing, acknowledged that the allegations were well pled. Indeed, if you look at the ... Complaint, you will see that all of these allegations accepted by the Court specifically rely on cite materials that are readily available in the public record, and they support the inference that the DNC and the DWS rigged the primaries.”
