摘要
佛罗里达联邦法官驳回了总统唐纳德·特朗普针对《纽约时报》价值150亿美元的诽谤诉讼，理由是程序缺陷，并给予28天时间重新提交诉状。
佛罗里达联邦法官驳回了总统唐纳德·特朗普针对《纽约时报》价值150亿美元的诽谤诉讼，理由是程序缺陷，并给予28天时间重新提交诉状。
美国地区法官史蒂文·梅里戴裁定，这份85页的诉状违反了联邦民事诉讼程序规则，该规则要求对诉讼请求进行简明陈述。他批评该诉状“明显不当且不可接受”，指出诉状不是“发表恶言恶语的公共论坛”或“公关的扩音器”。
本周早些时候提交的诉讼指控《纽约时报》、其多名记者及出版商企鹅兰登书屋通过聚焦特朗普商业和财务历史的文章和一本书对特朗普进行了诽谤。法官已给予特朗普法律团队28天时间，提交符合程序规则且不超过40页的修订诉状。
特朗普法律团队的一名发言人表示，他们打算按照法官的指导重新提交案件，强调总统致力于追究媒体责任。
