(JUST THE NEWS) -- A federal judge on Tuesday permitted a civil suit against former President Donald Trump over the death of Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick to advance, but dismissed two of the counts.
In the Tuesday ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta dismissed Garza's wrongful death and negligence claims, CBS reported. He did, however, permit her to bring two counts under the D.C. Survival Act.
"We are pleased to see that our lawsuit in pursuit of justice for the late Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died in the aftermath of the January 6th insurrection, has been permitted to continue. We are now considering our next step options, to include deposing former President Trump," Garza attorney Mark Zaid said.
