MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has vowed to appeal a decision by a federal judge who upheld an arbitration court ruling that said he must pay $5 million to a software engineer who claims he satisfied the conditions for winning Mr. Lindell’s “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge regarding supposed 2020 election data.

U.S. District Judge John R. Tunheim, an appointee of former President Bill Clinton, said in a Feb. 21 order that courts have limited authority regarding arbitration disputes, but ordered Mr. Lindell to pay the $5 million award plus interest within 30 days anyway.
