According to the non-profit group AZ's Law, Lake deleted the tweet on Monday shortly after defense lawyers filed for sanctions against the former candidate and her attorneys following their unsuccessful attempt to overturn the 2022 election for governor.
"@KariLake has just deleted her tweet accusing Judge Thompson of having @marceelias 'ghostwriting' his ruling denying Lake's Election Contest claims," AZ's Law noted. "Her amplifying the baseless accusations was not good for her in the pending sanctions proceedings."
Lake's accusation amounted to "accusing @MarcElias (an atty in the case) of having an inappropriate ex parte communication with the judge."

..."Judge Thompson ruled on Dec. 24th in against Lake’s filing that the 2022 election had been tampered with. Local media reported that “Thompson found that the court did not have any clear evidence of widespread misconduct that could have impacted the results of the 2022 midterm election.”
“During a two-day trial, Lake’s team focused on ballot printer issues in Maricopa County, asking the judge to declare her governor or order a re-vote in the county,” added the report. Lake has vowed to appeal the ruling.
Reporter Justin Lum for Fox 10 in Phoenix tallied up the potential sanctions Lake and her associates may be on the hook for. “All told, between Hobbs and several lawyers for the County – Lake and her attorneys could face up to $700K in sanctions to cover total fees.”
