Arizona Judge Denies Request for Sanctions Against Kari Lake.

Katie Hobbs, who was elected governor of Arizona, had asked a judge to impose sanctions on Kari Lake, who had challenged her in the race for governor.

Sanctions were denied, but Hobbs was given slightly more than $33,000 to pay for the cost of hiring expert witnesses during the two-day trial Lake initiated to overturn the outcome of the November 2022 governor’s race.
