Judge Dismisses Disney's Lawsuit Against Gov. DeSantis

A federal judge in Florida has dismissed a lawsuit filed by Disney against Gov. Ron DeSantis and other state officials over the state legislature's decision to alter the governing structure of the Reedy Creek Improvement District, for which Disney was the main landowner. The change was made in retaliation for criticism of the "Don't Say Gay" bill. The judge ruled in favor of DeSantis, citing lack of standing and 11th Amendment immunity, and the case was dismissed without prejudice, meaning it can be brought again with proper standing.
