Retired Harvard University law professor Alan Dershowitz said he wasn’t part of the legal team that represented Kari Lake and Mark Finchem in connection to a lawsuit that was filed in early 2022 and later rejected.

In 2022, U.S. District Court Judge John Tuchi tossed filings by Lake and fellow Republican Mark Finchem. Months later, the same judge ruled that the Republican candidates’ attorneys were liable for legal fees incurred by Maricopa County.
