The story of Davis' unusual lawsuit was recounted by the San Antonio Express News Monday. The blog Sara for America has highlights:
Davis said in her lawsuit that the newspaper ran “a series of contrived and false news stories and editorials…with malicious intent.”
The lawsuit said “defamatory and libelous” remarks were made to inflict emotional distress and to deny her rights to free speech, assembly and association.
It said that “Davis has suffered and is continuing to suffer damages to her mental health, her physical health, her right to pursue public offices in the past and in the future, and to her legal career.” She sought unspecified damages, including “significant exemplary damages.”
According to National Review's Andrew Stiles, "The suit...was quickly dismissed by a district-court judge, who sustained all of the defendants’ objections, largely on the grounds that Davis had failed to present legitimate evidence to support her libel claim." She appealed it all the way to the Texas Supreme Court, losing at every turn.

Ms. Wendy’s needs may have been covered by depends.
Another whacko liberal. Imagine that.
wah! wah! wah! wendy the whiner strikes again!
No gun for her.
Abortion Barbies sure have thin skins.
Reading the docs from her "lawsuit", I thought, stupid whiny, b*tch. How could she possibly think that such a lameass lawsuit had any merit? I guess she was out of older men to pay her bills, and thought she'd gin up some bucks with her frivolous suit.
So a newspaper essentially permanently damaged her mental health and she wants to run for governor of Texas...
This whole saga is getting so weird, she might get elected just for the entertainment value.
Sounds like trying to steal money from a broke guy.
Remember the lawsuit was back in 1996 when she was defeated for city council. City Council!
I think she saw a possible merit in lawsuit because she was trained at Harvard.
As Shakespeare would say, “Let’s kill all the lawyers!”
At least she admits she is mentally ill - its a start towards healing.
What more would you expect from a wench that filed for divorce from her Attorney Husband 13 years her senior the day after he makes her last student loan Payment.
Not only did he find out what she is, but also how much she cost
