Must be a slow news day if this story tops the list.

The issue according to the article posted was a dispute about (1) a claim of price gouging by the paint company. (2) and a subsequent argument of price gouging by the plaintiff's lawyers.

These are both ubiquitous arguments world wide.

I am familiar enough with lawsuits to say that a decision by a judge is not always made based on objective and factual evidence. I can also tell you that legal expenses( billable hours, hourly rate, level of handling, expenses ,etc) is consistently a matter of view and disagreement.

Simply stated because a judge or jury rules a certain way doesn't mean the plaintiff or defendant in criminal cases was right.

I mean look at the OJ and Casey Anthony cases
