The evidence behind Jones’ eye-catching claim that Clinton could have organized the lawsuit is thin to nonexistent. And it could result in new court sanctions against Jones, who is already on the hook for more than $150,000 in court fines over the Sandy Hook lawsuits playing out in Texas.

The attempt to depose Clinton is expected to be taken up in a future hearing. Lawyers for Jones and the Sandy Hook relatives didn’t respond to requests for comment.

The fight over Clinton’s deposition centers over a July 1 deposition Jones’ lawyers took of one of the Sandy Hook plaintiffs. The results of that deposition were under a court order ruling them “highly confidential” and “attorney’s eyes only,” according to the plaintiffs, meaning that they weren’t supposed to be revealed in the court record without a judge’s approval. Roughly halfway into the 13-hour deposition of the Sandy Hook plaintiff, however, one of Jones’s lawyers filed the motion to depose Clinton, citing a portion of the then-ongoing deposition of the Sandy Hook relative as evidence.
