How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding that this factor weighs against cost-shifting where defendant’s assets dwarfed plaintiffs assets even if plaintiffs attorney could contribute
- finding that a potential class action involving manipulation of the securities market does not raise the kind of public policy issues that might affect cost-shifting
- finding no “undue burden or expense” to justify cost-shifting where the requested discovery cost approximately $400,000 but the litigation involved at least $68.7 million in damages
- rejecting cost-shifting where discovery would cost $400,000 and potential recovery was between $68.7 million and $7 billion
