Infowars host Alex Jones on Thursday defied a Connecticut judge's order to show up for a deposition in a case brought by relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting who sued Jones for calling the massacre a hoax, according to the families' lawyer.

It was the second straight day that Jones did not appear for the deposition in Austin, Texas, which was scheduled to be held Wednesday and Thursday. It wasn't immediately clear what penalties he may face.

But Connecticut Judge Barbara Bellis on Wednesday denied Pattis' request to delay the proceeding and ordered Jones to appear Thursday. Bellis wrote in a ruling that letters from Jones' doctors indicate his medical conditions aren't serious enough to prevent him from attending the deposition. Bellis noted Jones wasn't hospitalized and appeared on his web show earlier this week.

Twenty first graders and six educators were killed in the 2012 shooting. The families of eight of the victims and an FBI agent who responded to school sued Jones, Infowars and others, saying they have been subjected to harassment and death threats from Jones' followers because of the hoax conspiracy. Jones has since said he believes the shooting did occur.
