Disney and DeSantis Clash in Ongoing Legal Battle.

Disney responded to the motion filed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District to disqualify Judge Mark E. Walker in a legal dispute with Disney. Disney's lawyers argued that Walker's remarks did not meet the high standards for judges to be disqualified and that disqualification is allowed only if the prior comments expose an incapacity on the judge's part to consider the new case on its own merits. Earlier this week, Walker issued an order declaring that he would take no further action until he ruled on the motion for disqualification.
