MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has suffered another legal setback — this time from the Supreme Court, which rejected his request to hear an appeal over the FBI’s seizure of his cellphone. In September 2022, FBI agents approached Lindell at a Hardee’s drive-thru in Minnesota and confiscated his phone as part of an investigation into possible voting machine tampering in Colorado in 2020.
A federal appeals court upheld that ruling last year, writing that the seizure of the phone — which Lindell acknowledged had been backed up five days before it was confiscated — “does not give rise to a constitutional claim, let alone a showing of a callous disregard for his constitutional rights.” Lindell then petitioned the Supreme Court, which on Monday denied the request. The refusal is the latest in a string of court losses for Lindell.
