Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore will be in court today arguing that his case against comedian Sasha Baron Cohen should be tried in Washington, D.C. and not “leftist” New York.
Moore attorney Larry Klayman said via a release he and Moore will appear in New York to argue a motion filed by Cohen, Showtime and CBS seeking to have a defamation suit transferred to the Southern District of New York. Moore filed the case after he appeared on the Showtime series “Who is America?” and was administered a bogus “pedophile detector test” by Cohen, who was posing as an Israeli agent.
Klayman said he will argue since the show was taped in Washington, D.C., it should be tried there as well.
