lol. lmao.
I always worder if these sums include the fee of the lawyer. Would really be a much smaller payout if true.
It shouldn't, generally the order will be worded something like "The plaintiff has been awarded $xxxxx.xx + legal fees " as in whatever legal fees they accrued the defendant will have to pay in addition
But then again, what do I know IANAL lol
I assume the attorney's fees is one of many reasons the amount increased. Because they insisted on doing things the hard way.
What an amazing businessman!
This is the same guy who paid $44+ billion for Twitter so he could use it to have a personal conversation with a genuine retard.
