SCOTUS on Monday declined to block investigators from seizing the MyPillow CEO's phone.
The United States Supreme Court on Monday dealt a blow to Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow and a close ally to former President Donald Trump.The court declined to hear an appeal from Lindell, who has sought to block investigators from seizing his phone in a case surrounding alleged efforts to tamper with voting machines in Colorado around the time of the 2020 presidential election.
Judge Erickson rejected Lindell's claims that the seizure violated his constitutional rights in September 2023.'Lindell's irritation as to where and how the government took possession of his cell phone does not give rise to a constitutional claim, let alone a showing of a callous disregard for his constitutional rights,' Erickson wrote.Lindell appealed that decision to the Supreme Court.
