Both Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems, filed for bankruptcy reorganization after he lost two lawsuits and was ordered to pay $1.5 billion to relatives of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
At one point, he urged his followers to form a human chain around his studio in Austin, Texas, to protect it.
Annie Catmull, a lawyer for Free Speech Systems, asked the judge to continue allowing the company to operate.
Jones’ lawyers have been unable to reach an agreement over the past several months with the families’ lawyers on how to resolve the bankruptcy cases.
Proceeds would go to his creditors, including the Sandy Hook families.
The families of many, but not all, of the Sandy Hook victims sued Jones and won the two trials in Connecticut and Texas.
Infowars’ parent company, Free Speech Systems, which employs 44 people, had nearly $4 million in cash on hand at the end of April. »
