Sidney Powell, team ordered to pay $175,250 in fees for Michigan case
Attorney Sidney Powell and other lawyers who unsuccessfully sought to overturn Michigan's 2020 election will have to pay $175,250 in legal fees under a court order issued Thursday.
The decision awards $153,285.62 to the City of Detroit, the state's largest city and a Democratic stronghold that became a hotbed for false and unproven claims about voter fraud, and $21,964.75 to the state of Michigan.
The suit seeking to overturn the election represented "a historic and profound abuse of the judicial process," the judge wrote in her August sanctions decision, and sought to deceive the federal court and Americans "into believing that rights were infringed, without regard to whether any laws or rights were in fact violated."
The lawyers also have to attend 12 hours of continuing legal education in regards to election law appeals regarding elections.The decision awards $153,285.62 to the City of Detroit, the state's largest city and a Democratic stronghold that became a hotbed for false and unproven claims about voter fraud, and $21,964.75 to the state of Michigan.
