Executives at Smartmatic, a voting machine company that is separately suing Fox News for defamation, are facing bribery charges related to its business in the Philippines.

A federal grand jury in Miami has charged the co-founder of Smartmatic, a voting machine maker that is separately suing Fox News for defamation, with paying $1 million in bribe payments to officials in the Philippines.

The company said the conservative networks aired false statements about its machines being used to commit voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election, charges that were pushed by former President Trump and his allies. Smartmatic's machines were only used in Los Angeles County during the 2020 presidential contest, not in any of the states where Trump said voter fraud was committed. The firm's case against Newsmax is scheduled for a Delaware trial in September.
