AI Summary

A Texas appellate court reduced the judgment against Alex Jones from $50 million to roughly $6 million, ruling that state law caps damages in the case. The original judgment stemmed from Jones’s false claims that the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax, which had been ordered to be paid to the victims’ families. The decision was issued by the Texas Third Court of Appeals in a unanimous opinion. This reduction limits the amount Jones can be compelled to pay, though the larger $1.25 billion liability remains outstanding.
