Judge Reduces Attorney Fees for 'Partial Success' in State Election Law Challenge
“Based on my review of other attorney’s fee awards in this district over the past several years, adjusted to reflect the cost of legal services in the winter of 2021 (when the bulk of the work in this case occurred), these fee strike me as appropriate for experienced counsel. Accordingly, the fee award will be calculated using the secretary’s proposed rates,” wrote U.S. District Judge Lance E. Walker of the District of Maine.
