Of course. Note this was a jury decision on damages after a default judgement. The judge decided he didn't comply with discovery so just found for the plaintiff, neatly sidestepping any need for them to prove their claims. Or, in simpler terms, a railroading.
The judge declared default judgement before a jury ever heard a single word.
I had a convo about this today and a friend insisted Jones must have intentionally refused discovery as part of some secret ultimate plan, and the fact I believed the court was corrupt means Jones "won." It's just insane.
Right to a fair trial is dead if you are a right-wing White man

At the very least it sounds like grounds for an appeal. Although that's a faint hope.
Yeah, the only chance for an overturn is at the Supreme Court. Anything lower is in Connecticut. No judge will destroy their career for AJ.
Supreme Court already turned him down.
