In Germany, the losing party pays 3x the court costs. The only issue is that everyone gets paid - the lawyer, the court etc. The only person that doesn’t get paid for their time investment is the person who is suing.
- deepsun 2mo agoBut as far as I understand in many lawsuits both sides lose at least for some of their claims/counterclaims, at least in business law. So court sees it as both sides lost, who should pay 3x?
