U.S. District Judge Christopher Lopez on Friday dismissed the proposed liquidation of Alex Jones’ company, Free Speech Systems, the parent company of InfoWars. The Texas bankruptcy judge deemed the denial of the bankruptcy plan as being in the best interest of the creditors.

Judge Lopez’s ruling stands in contrast to an earlier decision where he approved the liquidation of Mr. Jones’ personal assets.
