- A panel of three GOP-appointed judges for the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals late Sunday ordered group President Catherine Engelbrecht and one-time board member Gregg Phillips to be released, show court documents obtained Monday by Just the News.
- A spokesperson for True the Vote said Engelbrecht and Phillips are expected to be released Monday, “when the paperwork is complete.”
- The two leaders were sent to jail Oct. 31 in Texas for not complying with a court order to turn over evidence relating to their legal battle against Michigan-based poll watcher software firm Konnech.
- They refused to name an unidentified individual whom they say was present at a 2021 meeting during which they purportedly received evidence to substantiate their claims against Konnech and face a defamation claim over their assertions.
