Does the loser not ever get made to pay the winners costs in the US courts?
- Wingman4l7 14y agoSometimes, sure -- but you still have to have the copious amounts of spare time to spend in court and the substantial capital to cover lawyer's fees up front, with the possibility that said capital will a) get "tied up" for a long time, until the case is settled and b) may not come back if you lose.
- TallGuyShort 14y agoI know there are certain penalties for "frivolous" claims, but I believe that accusing and proving a claim is frivolous is akin to a whole new lawsuit. IANAL (as if you couldn't tell from my vague, less-than-helpful post).
