Here is the latest substantive filing in 3ABN's defamation case against Bob and Gailon. As expected, 3ABN and Danny Shelton don't think they should have to pay for Bob and Gailon's expenses. I guess they think they can just file suit against somebody in federal court, tie up the defendants' lives for 18 months, change their minds when they don't like the direction the lawsuit is going, and expect not to have to compensate for the damages their actions caused. I guess we'll see what the Court says.
By the way, here is a link to the United States Code, Section 1920 which is referenced several times in the attached document:
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/uscode28/usc_sec_28_00001920----000-.htmlAnd the text of that link:
A judge or clerk of any court of the United States may tax as costs the following:
(1) Fees of the clerk and marshal;
(2) Fees of the court reporter for all or any part of the stenographic transcript necessarily obtained for use in the case;
