Alex Jones , Files for Bankruptcy.
CNN reports that Jones filed for personal bankruptcy protection on Dec.
2 in Texas.
Jones says his assets are worth up to $10 million, and his liabilities amount to up to $10 billion.
The filing comes after Jones was denied a reduction of the nearly $50 million in damages a Texas jury said he had to pay Sandy Hook parents earlier this year.
Christopher Mattei, a CT attorney representing Sandy Hook families, said Jones' attempt to file for bankruptcy "will not work.".
Like every other cowardly move Alex Jones has made, this bankruptcy will not work, Christopher Mattei, CT attorney for Sandy Hook families, via statement.
The bankruptcy system does not protect anyone who engages in intentional and egregious attacks on others, as Mr. Jones did.

The American judicial system will hold Alex Jones accountable, and we will never stop working to enforce the jury’s verdict, Christopher Mattei, CT attorney for Sandy Hook families, via statement.
Jones also owes $1.4 billion to Sandy Hook families in Connecticut.
The jury found Alex Jones liable for intentional attacks on the Sandy Hook families, so he can’t discharge his debt to them in bankruptcy court, Christopher Mattei, CT attorney for Sandy Hook families, via statement.
Jones' company, Free Speech Systems, also filed for bankruptcy protection in July
