Alec Baldwin slams Halyna Hutchins' family as 'misguided' in request to dismiss wrongful death lawsuit
Fox News
Alec Baldwin and the production of "Rust" were sued by Halyna Hutchins' family in February following the fatal 2021 shooting. Baldwin has asked for the lawsuit to be dismissed.
Baldwin's legal team specifically noted that the plaintiff has to be married to the decedent in California law to receive compensation for a wrongful death. Additionally, the lawyers argued Hutchins' family could not prove a "sufficiently close relationship" with the cinematographer, which is necessary under New Mexico law.
His request was made to dismiss with prejudice. If granted, Hutchins' family would not be able to refile the claim.
A lawyer for Hutchins' mother, father and sister slammed Baldwin's attempt to "avoid responsibility" for the fatal shooting of the cinematographer in a statement to Fox News Digital.
