Marianas Pacific Law LLC, the law firm representing the Radiches, filed on Oct. 14 at the U.S. District Court for the NMI notice of payment and of receiving the amount of $101,638.61 as ordered by the court.
Daniel Guidotti, one of the two lawyers who represented the couple, said the payment is the amount due pursuant to the court’s fee order.
U.S. District Court for the NMI Chief Judge Ramona V. Manglona granted the Radiches' request for payment for their attorneys' fees and expenses on Sept. 20.
The federal court awarded the couple a total of $93,495 for attorneys' fees and expenses. The award comprises $78,375 for David Sigale's work, and $15,120 for Guidotti’s work. The couple was also awarded $8,143.62 for other expenses. |

Sue government and win. Break even on expenses, never get hundreds of hours of your life back.
Sue government and lose, it costs you $101k out of pocket.

The anti constitution people that voted for this measure should be paying this out of their own pockets instead of the tax payers.
The tax payers always loose. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
