Mike Lindell, CEO of My Pillow Inc., speaks during the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Dallas, Texas, on Friday, Aug. 5, 2022. The attorneys defending Mike Lindell and his business against defamation claims from voting machine companies are seeking to sever ties with the "MyPillow Guy" over millions of dollars in unpaid legal fees. "At this time, Defendants are in arrears by millions of dollars to PDK," the filing said. The firm said that if it was forced to continue providing legal services to Lindell, the "future fees and costs will amount to millions of dollars in addition to the millions of dollars already owed." Lindell is not the only Trump ally facing an action on unpaid legal fees tied to false claims about the 2020 election.

Mike Lindell owes Robert Zeidman $5 million over a contest to disprove the 2020 election was rigged. Lindell told Insider that Zeidman, a computer scientist, "isn't even a cyber guy." Joshi told Insider there's no basis for Lindell's claim that Zeidman should not have been in the "Prove Mike Wrong" contest. "Mike Lindell is not gonna take this big sham," he told Insider, speaking in the third person. Lindell told Insider Friday he was frustrated that Fox News caved.
Mike Lindell’s ‘Prove Mike Wrong Challenge’ had an award of $5 million. Photo: Al Drago/Bloomberg NewsMike Lindell , the MyPillow Inc. chief executive known for spreading false claims of election fraud, dared someone to disprove the validity of his data alleging Chinese interference in the 2020 election. Turns out, one man did. An arbitration panel on Wednesday ordered Mr. Lindell to pay Robert Zeidman $5 million after the computer scientist found Mr. Lindell’s data “unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data,” the panel wrote in its decision.
Mike Lindell has been ordered to fork over $5 million to a cybersecurity expert who proved his election-fraud claims were wrong. "Three judges unanimously decided that we proved to 100% certainty that Mr. Lindell's data was not related to the 2020 election," Glasser explained. He proved the data Lindell LLC provided, and represented reflected information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data," the panel wrote in its ruling. "Failure to pay Mr. Zeidman the $5 million prized was a breach of the contract, entitling him to recover." When asked by Insider on Thursday whether he had the cash to pay Zeidman the $5 million, he called it a "stupid question."
Mike Lindell, the MyPillow founder and Trump ally who has been a leading voice in pushing conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election, must pay $5 million to a software forensics expert who debunked a series of false claims as part of a “Prove Mike Wrong” contest, an arbitration panel said on Wednesday. Mr. Lindell issued the challenge at a “cyber symposium” in South Dakota in 2021, saying he had data that would support his claims that there was Chinese interference in the election and offering the seven-figure prize to anyone who could prove the data had no connection to the 2020 election. Because the software expert Robert Zeidman successfully did so, the panel, composed of three members of the American Arbitration Association, ordered that Mr. Lindell would have to pay up. “Almost everyone there was pro-Trump, and everyone said, ‘This data is nonsense,’” Mr. Zeidman said in an interview on Thursday, identifying himself as a Republican who voted twice for former President Donald J. Trump. “A false narrative about election fraud is just really damaging to this country.”
An arbitration panel ordered MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell to pay $5 million within 30 days to a Nevada software developer for proving Lindell was wrong in his claim that certain data was related to the 2020 presidential election and purported voting machine fraud. The panel, in its 23-page ruling issued Wednesday, said that the Robert Zeidman "proved the data Lindell LLC provided, and represented reflected information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data." Zeidman, a software developer, entered the "Prove Mike Wrong Challenge" contest in during a cyber symposium in August 2021. Lindell, who had said he believed the data revealed that China had interefered in the 2020 election in several states, called the ruling "a horrrible decision." "The evidence was from 2020," Lindell said of the data that was the subject of the contest.
WASHINGTON, April 20 (Reuters) - Mike Lindell, a prominent ally of former U.S. President Donald Trump, has been ordered to pay $5 million to a man who debunked Lindell's false claims of election fraud, the plaintiff's law firm said on Thursday. An arbitration panel ordered Lindell, the founder of pillow manufacturer My Pillow and a well-known election conspiracy theorist, to pay cyber expert Robert Zeidman after he won a contest Lindell hosted in Nevada in July 2021. "Lindell's claim to have 2020 election data has been definitively disproved." A significant portion of self-identified conservatives in the U.S. continue to falsely believe that the 2020 presidential election, which Trump lost, was marred by widespread fraud. In 2021, Dominion Voting Systems, which just reached a $787.5 million settlement with Fox Corp and Fox News, sued Lindell for damages related to his vote-rigging claims.
Washington CNN —My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell has been ordered to shell out $5 million to an expert who debunked his data related to the 2020 election, according to a decision by the arbitration panel obtained by CNN. CNN has obtained arbitration documents and video depositions, including a deposition of Lindell, related to the dispute. “He proved the data Lindell LLC provided, and represented reflected information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data. Thus, the contestants’ task was to prove the data presented to them was not valid data from the November 2020 election,” the arbitration panel wrote. Nor was the Panel asked to decide whether Lindell LLC possessed data that proved such interference, or even whether Lindell LLC had election data in its possession,” according to the arbitration panel.
