    I doubt the settlement amount came close to what the legal fees would have cost. They knew they were going to lose.

      Any court process is a great burden. People don’t evade it only if they think and are sure they will lose.

      On the inverse, many sure-to-win proceedings never occur because it’s a high barrier and a time- and money-costly process and so people don’t see it as worth pursuing.

        You’re not saying anything I haven’t already addressed in the comment you replied to. The Yuzu settlement was $2.4M. That’s more than enough to cover a good attorney’s fees for several years.

          I wasn’t aware of the monetary part of the settlement. The figure was not included in that comment.
