Elliott Broidy Can’t Sue Qatar in U.S. Over Hacking, Judge Says

Elliott Broidy can’t sue Qatar in U.S. court over allegations the Middle Eastern nation orchestrated a hack of the Republican fundraiser’s computer and leaked unflattering information to the media.

U.S. District Judge John Walter in Los Angeles on Wednesday granted Qatar’s request to be dismissed from the lawsuit under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, which limits U.S. court jurisdiction over foreign nations.
