The Cyber Ninjas group that conducted the widely-panned Arizona "audit" of the 2020 election complained to a judge about the soaring cost of fines that have been leveled against it after refusing to turn over what courts have repeatedly ruled are public documents.
"Cyber Ninjas doesn't want to pay $50,000-a-day fines imposed by a Maricopa County Superior Court judge for not turning over records from work it did for the Arizona Senate, and is asking the Arizona Supreme Court for help," The Arizona Republic reported Thursday. "Two superior court judges and the court of appeals determined the company's records from the controversial review of Maricopa County's 2020 election are public records under state law. But Cyber Ninjas continues to argue that just because it was working for the government doesn't mean the records are government documents."
The $50,000 a day fines now total more than $2 million.

WE the "public" have a right to know.......just like you had some right to to look at ballots that were suppose to counted in transparency...that your group violated with help from the senator leader and others in the state.........so if you don't want to accrue a $1,000. 00 fine ....well.....

Or they could release their audit. Nothing proprietary about counting or any of their made up bovine waste about bamboo fibers flown in from China via the Italy to Venezuela connection.
