Magistrate Judge Enjoliqué Lett set the deposition deadline in Trump’s lawsuit over a BBC documentary edit of his Jan. 6, 2021 speech. The BBC has acknowledged that the program spliced together remarks from different parts of the speech; the order concerns discovery and does not decide whether the broadcaster is liable. The deadline could change if the presiding judge extends discovery.

The Associated Press reported the order and possible sanctions; The Guardian also covered the deposition deadline and the BBC’s response: [AP](apnews.com source ↗) · [The Guardian](theguardian.com source ↗).
