BG Files in Federal Court to Confirm Collection Rights on $5 Million Award Against MyPillow CEO

Bailey Glasser has filed a federal court petition to confirm their client Robert Zeidman’s $5 million arbitration award against MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell after Mr. Zeidman won the “Prove Mike Wrong” Challenge. “Mr. Lindell’s baseless claims of election fraud have caused immeasurable damage to our country and have been soundly debunked.

Bailey Glasser has filed a federal court petition to confirm their client Robert Zeidman’s $5 million arbitration award against MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell after Mr. Zeidman won the “Prove Mike Wrong” Challenge. “Mr. Lindell’s baseless claims of election fraud have caused immeasurable damage to our country and have been soundly debunked. It’s time for him to pay the judgment,” said BG partner Brian Glasser, leading the team representing Mr. Zeidman.

In the “Prove Mike Wrong” challenge, Lindell offered $5 million to anyone who could prove data he claimed shows China interfered in the 2020 presidential election was inaccurate. Mr. Zeidman did so, and a three-judge arbitration panel concluded on April 19, 2023 that he definitively won the “Prove Mike Wrong” contest and that “failure to pay Mr. Zeidman the $5 million prize was a breach of the contract, entitling him to recovery.”

Payment was due within 30 days of the arbitration award, but Lindell has made no payment to date. In the petition, BG partners Brian Glasser, Lori Bullock, and Cary Joshi ask the court to confirm the arbitration award and compel Lindell to pay the judgment. Read more here.

BG Partners Join Opening Arguments Podcast Discussing $5 Million Award Against “My Pillow” Founder

Bailey Glasser partners Brian Glasser and Cary Joshi join the Opening Arguments podcast to discuss winning a $5 million arbitration award against My Pillow founder Mike Lindell for claims related to election fraud data.

The Bailey Glasser team, Brian Glasser, Cari Joshi, and paralegal Manuel Rios in Washington, D.C., and partner Lori Bullock in Des Moines, Iowa, represented Robert Zeidman, a cyber security professional, in the arbitration.

Following the 2020 election, Lindell prominently trumpeted the false theory that the 2020 presidential election involved alleged Chinese government hacking that resulted in votes cast for Donald Trump being switched to Joe Biden. In July 2021, Mike Lindell sponsored his own so-called “Cyber Symposium”, which he said would provide an opportunity for technical experts in cyber forensics to examine and evaluate the evidence presented by Lindell.

Lindell was so confident in the validity of his so-called “evidence” that, as part of his Cyber Symposium, he held the “Prove Mike Wrong Challenge” and offered a $5 million prize to anyone who could prove the data was not valid. The Arbitration panel declared unequivocally that Zeidman proved Mike wrong and won the contest.

Child Abuse Lawsuit Attracting National Attention

Our lawsuit on behalf of a sexually abused child by a teacher she trusted and a school system and administrator who should have protected her, is gaining national attention – most recently by the NY Post, Fox News, as well as Dan Abrams’ Law & Crime platform. Partner Mary Pat Statler told the NY Post: “This case is a parent’s worst nightmare. To learn that your child was groomed and sexually abused by a teacher is beyond awful. It’s made even more terrible knowing that the administrator at the time of the abuse was in a position to stop the abuse or prevent future instances of abuse and instead turned a blind eye.”
