A U.S. federal judge has dismissed Walt Disney Co’s lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and members of a State board. The lawsuit claimed retaliation after Disney criticized state limits on classroom discussion of sexuality, known as the “Don’t say gay” law. The judge ruled that Disney couldn’t sue over constitutionally enacted state laws. The dispute arose when Disney criticized the law, and Governor DeSantis targeted “woke Disney” in public appearances. State lawmakers subsequently stripped Disney of control over a special development district, leading to the legal battle.
