Brady 4 Game Suspension Upheld

Court cost go both ways. The union spent about as much money as the league, I'd guess.

As for how much you think I dislike the Patriots, I really don't think it's pertinent. What I don't like is cheating, and they decide how much of that they do, not me.

And yes, Doty's comment was definitely rude and has no place in a court. Can you imagine how Doty would have responded to the same question? That gavel would be flying. But he gets to make the childish, unprofessional, sarcastic queries, because he's the judge. And an asshole.

Court costs are not the same as legal fees.

I just got finished with a lengthy civil suit and we won. We were award $45,000 in court costs (basically to pay for the court reporter during months of depositions). The legal fees were well over $500,000.

Second person in the case waited for the verdict. Then he sued. Insurance company settled out of court for less than $500,000 and felt they came out ahead. We did nothing wrong and were completely vindicated in the first trial.
