The lawsuit accused Daleiden of numerous wrongdoings, including contractual breaches related to violation of non-disclosure agreements, trespassing, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ojp.gov\/ncjrs\/virtual-library\/abstracts\/rico-racketeer-influenced-and-corrupt-organizations-act-statute\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RICO<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) violations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The California District Court which originally heard the case ruled in Planned Parenthood\u2019s favor, and the appeals process has been lengthy. Judge William Orrick III presided over the case in District Court; he is one of 130 federal judges <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/judge-planned-parenthood-pro-life-wsj-investigation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">accused<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by a Wall Street Journal investigation of violating U.S. law and judicial ethics by overseeing court cases involving companies in which the judges, or their families, owned stock. Judge Orrick founded a Planned Parenthood abortion referral clinic but refused to recuse himself from the case, a point which formed part of the basis for Daleiden\u2019s appeal. However, the three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit denied that there was any conflict of interest on Orrick\u2019s part.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>URGENT:\u00a0<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/give.liveaction.org\/future-of-abortion\/?utm_source=lan&amp;utm_medium=article&amp;utm_campaign=minibomb\"><b><i>For every dollar given, 34 more people can be reached with the truth about abortion.

However, the videos \u2013 which have been independently <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/faked-criminal-videos-planned-parenthood-lies-again-on-twitter\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">authenticated<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by multiple forensic analyses, including one conducted by a firm Planned Parenthood hired \u2013 show compelling evidence that Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities are profiting from the sale of aborted fetal body parts, which is a federal crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In January of 2019, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the CMP videos provided convincing evidence that Planned Parenthood was engaged in the trafficking of aborted fetal body parts, and it <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/fifth-circuit-planned-parenthood-videos-texas\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ruled<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that the state of Texas could use the videos to justify defunding the abortion corporation. The statements by the Ninth Circuit panel that the videos contain no evidence of wrongdoing would seem to contravene the ruling by the Fifth Circuit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The panel did rule in Daleiden\u2019s favor on one point, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/legal\/litigation\/abortion-foes-largely-lose-24-mln-appeal-over-planned-parenthood-videos-2022-10-21\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">overturning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the jury\u2019s verdict finding him and other defendants guilty of violating the Federal Wiretap Act. This portion of the verdict accounted for less than $100,000 in damages out of the $2.4 million total judgment. Judge Orrick awarded Planned Parenthood an additional $13 million in fees, being appealed separately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daleiden\u2019s attorneys will now appeal this decision to the en banc full panel of judges of the Ninth Circuit.
