Judge William M. White Jr. ruled that Karen Read won't give a deposition in her wrongful death case until after her criminal trial, effectively delaying the lawsuit.
Read's defense team argues that proceeding with the lawsuit during the criminal trial conflicts with her Fifth Amendment rights, potentially hindering her defense against serious charges.
O'Keefe's family argues against delays, noting Read's media appearances and upcoming documentary, which contradict the claim of needing to protect her legal rights.
The wrongful death lawsuit alleges negligence by bars for serving Read while intoxicated, adding another layer of complexity to the ongoing legal battles.
