JUDGMENT Signed by District Judge Linda V. Parker. (AFla) (Entered: 12/02/2021)

Plaintiffs initiated this action on November 25, 2020. (ECF No. 1.) Their claims were subsequently dismissed either voluntarily (ECF Nos. 86-91) or by leave of Court (ECF No. 149). Defendants and the Intervenor-Defendants filed motions for sanctions. On August 25, 2021, the Court granted the motions filed by Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and the City of Detroit and granted in part and denied in part the motion filed by Robert Davis. (ECF No. 172.) The sanctions awarded included the reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Governor Whitmer, Secretary of State Benson, and the City of Detroit. The Court decided on the amount of the fee awards in an Opinion and Order entered today.

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ counsel, jointly and severally, shall pay attorneys’ fees in the amount of $21,964.75 to Defendants Gretchen Whitmer and Jocelyn Benson;

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ counsel, jointly and severally, shall pay attorneys’ fees in the amount of $153,285.62 to Intervenor-Defendant City of Detroit;

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this matter is CLOSED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

The public and other individuals should not have to pay for the costs of this election fraud nonsense which has no evidence nor any basis in fact. If it did, they would have shown some.

(oh, but Mike Lindell . . . yeah, right.)

    If your question is not part of the lawsuit, then it is irrelevant to the lawsuit.

    The court room is always recorded by a court recorder and a transcript is created. Many (most?) modern court rooms also keep an audio record in addition to (or instead of?) a court reporter.

    Some courts allow cameras. (Just see YouTube as an example of videos taken by permission of the court.)

    Courts try to be transparent.

    What are you complaining about? Other than you don't like the outcome because the plaintiffs didn't even try to prove their case because their lawsuit was for the purpose of publicity.

    Heh, very funny, but not the court room, the count room, where votes are counted. Full transparency is required, cameras, microphones, every bit of spy equipment you can think of, big windows to let people see inside.

      If that is your question, then it should have been part of the lawsuit complaint. With supporting evidence.

      It's funny how all these conspiracy theories are NEVER backed up by actual evidence. Just loud strong assertions that it is true.

        No, not an assertion, it was a question that you still haven't answered. I don't care about the lawsuits. Did it happen or not? Were the shades pulled? If you don't know, just say it without the pontificating
