There won't be an announcement today of a new lawsuit by Roy Moore today after all.
Moore's defense team issued another press release Thursday morning, postponing the news conference scheduled for 3 p.m. Thursday in Gadsden.
The full statement from Moore's attorneys:
"The announcement of new charges against additional defendants in this matter will be postponed due to delay of cases already pending before two separate courts of the state, as well as at the Alabama Supreme Court, making it inadvisable to proceed at this time.
"We fully intend to announce new charges against new defendants in the coming months."
It's not clear what has changed since Wednesday's late afternoon announcement that Moore would be holding a second press conference within the last month to discuss the filing of another lawsuit.
Moore is involved in three lawsuits regarding allegations made against him last November in his campaign for U.S. Senate. Moore has repeatedly denied the allegations that he made unwanted romantic and sexual advances against two women who were in their teens and another woman who was a client.
The reference to the state Supreme Court is an appeal that Moore has made in the lawsuit brought by one of his accusers, Leigh Corfman. The trial judge denied Moore's request to move the case from Montgomery County to Etowah County and Moore's appeal of that ruling is still before the state's high court.
Moore has also filed a counter lawsuit against Corfman in that case.
And last month, Moore announced a lawsuit against five defendants alleging a political conspiracy that sabotaged his Senate campaign. Corfman was among those defendants.
In that case, filed in Etowah County, all the judges recused themselves because of their relationship with Moore. The lawsuit has been assigned to retired Russell County Circuit Judge Albert L. Johnson Sr.
