They have to pay attorney fees of about 40 grand, and another 40 grand of punitive damages. At this point, that's about it, but with a ruling like this, there's no doubt that there are going to be many more problems for the Prenda gang in the future. Don't worry though, given the gravity of the recommendations Wright's sending to the DA and to the IRS, you can be certain there will be much more popcorn to be had from this case.
- TylerE 14y agoActually, the biggest bit in the judgement might be the "referral" (and not the _good_ kind of referral) to their state bar(s).
- protomyth 14y agoI would say the worst referral is actually the IRS one. The IRS does not play "innocent until proven guilty" it is "pay up first, then prove you are innocent if you can". The referral for a possible RICO case isn't very nice either. Informing all other courts about this is going to kill their other lawsuits and bring some interesting new lawsuits / appeals.
