TL;DR Summary

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is seeking immunity from a lawsuit filed by Disney World, which accuses him of retaliating against the company for expressing opposition to his "Don't Say Gay" bill. DeSantis signed a law that revoked Disney's ability to self-govern its 25,000-acre site in Orlando. Disney claims the move was in response to their criticism of the bill. DeSantis' attorneys argue that Disney's claims fail as a matter of law and are asking for the case to be dismissed. The lawsuit alleges that DeSantis' actions were unconstitutional and retaliatory. A federal judge will decide whether to grant DeSantis immunity from the lawsuit.
