Now this "judge" is expecting the other party to pay his court costs in the frivious lawsuit case the "judge" lost?

[r9etb]

This “judge” is a criminal, IMO.

[KJC1]

This guy is disgusting. He should pay the Chungs’ fees for his frivolous action, and then crawl under a rock.

[doc1019]

Put his butt in Jail until he agrees to pay and then keep him on a short leash until he pays.

[kik5150]

If there were true justice he would be disbarred.

[Paladin2]

I don’t want to pay my Fed Income Taxes either (unless they help to buy a cruise missile to hit the well in Qom).

If he doesn’t have any money, they should take his pants.

I’m surprised that the Chungs didn’t countersue for pain and suffering.

[GovernmentShrinker]

The judge has no money. Countersuing would just incur more legal expenses for the Chungs.

Frankly, I think the DC Superior Court should reimburse the Chungs for their legal expenses and time. This case should never have been allowed past square one. It was frivolous on its face and should have been thrown out without a single hearing. The suing judge should have been charged with contempt of court just for filing it, and then subjected to a court-ordered psych exam and committed to a mental hospital where he belongs.

Everybody seems to be misreading this article.

The judge is resisting the other side’s attempt to force him to pay their legal costs, totaling close to $90K.

There is nothing in the story to imply that the judge is demanding his legal costs be paid.

[Emmett McCarthy]

You gotta keep in mind that this didn’t happen in the U.S. It happened in D.C. where the well-entrenched politicos and judges trump honest hard-working business people. And, yes, there is a “race thing” to it all which is very sad.

[Baladas]

Loser pays.

[Boiler Plate]

The Chongs will in the end have to put liens and encumbrances on all that Person owns. This will make it impossible for Person to get credit of any sort. It is a slow process but placing liens is fairly inexpensive.

[Lurker]

You need to reread the article. The losing plaintiff was an administrative courts judge.

There is nothing in everybody's replies to imply this either. Not sure what you are reading, but it is clear to me that everybody gets the gist of it here.

[DesScorp]

This guy is Exhibit “A” on why Democrat lawyers are scumbags.

[nyyankeefan]

another lib/dem demanding that someone else must pay...

after all...it takes a village of idiots in the US society!!!

The article states that the judge plaintiff in this case is resisting demands that he pay the defendants' cost of defending themselves.

Post #1, quoted above, states that His Honor is trying to get the defendants to pay his "court costs," which are, BTW, quite different from legal fees.

Post #1 is incorrect. As I said, not a big deal.

[Baladas]

They’re his now , since....LOSER pays all.
