Larry Klayman, counsel for the pro-Arpaio group Citizens To Protect Fair Election Results ("CPFER"), tells Arizona's Politics that the motion to dismiss filed today by Respect Arizona ("RA") is "not worth the paper it is written on."
RA is the group organizing a recall petition effort against Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio. The CPFER lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the effort was filed more than one month ago; the motion to dismiss and for damages is being filed today, and RA is holding a news conference discussing it at 3:30pm.
Arizona's Politics confirmed that Klayman had received the motion and asked for response. Klayman responded, leaving a voicemail: "Frankly, it is not worth the paper it is written on. And, you can quote me on that."
