U-T:
A judge has ordered Rep. Darrell Issa to pay his opponent from last year’s election more than $45,000 in legal expenses fees incurred during a defamation lawsuit.
In November, Issa, a Vista Republican, sued Democrat Doug Applegate over attack commercials the congressman said hurt his reputation. In March, a judge said that Issa didn’t prove his case, but also sided with Applegate who argued that he was exercising his free speech rights with the television commercials, and that Issa’s lawsuit was an attempt to silence criticism.
Nurse gaspar, paging nurse gaspar.
ReplyDeleteThis is why you tell someone that threatens frivolous lawsuits that your attorney cost 600/hr and took someone's house once who could not pay.
$45K is a drop in the bucket for Issa, the richest guy in Congress. But it should be a wake-up call for the Gaspars.
ReplyDeleteIssa is a snake - he is fighting for his political life, as he just squeeked by in the last election. He needs to go.
