Voting machine company Smartmatic has settled its defamation suit against One America News Network out of court, according to a court filing Tuesday. The details of the settlement were not disclosed in the filing, but OANN parent company Herring Networks and Smartmatic each agreed to pay their own attorney fees and expenses, according to the court filing. Lawyers for the parties did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Dominion's case against Fox News dragged reams of evidence and testimony into the public sphere, revealing that Trump’s media allies did not believe the remarkably dubious evidence behind the the president’s stolen election claims. At least eight other defamation cases from the voting machine companies are working their way through the judicial system this year, too.
