Judge Slashes Lawyer's Rate for Typos, Careless Writing
Quote:
|
"As for there being typos, yes there have been typos, but these errors have not detracted from the arguments or results, and the rule in this case was a victory for Mr. Devore. Further, had the Defendants not tired [sic] to paper Plaintiff's counsel to death, some type [sic] would not have occurred. Furthermore, there have been omissions by the Defendants, thus they should not case [sic] stones."

I can see slashing his hours, but docking his hourly rate is below the belt.
