I know. That fine is just a business cost, being that low. This will definitely happen again.
Absolutely. But if you have an hour to spare have a listen to Leonard French go through the court hearing on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5YaGACnJpg
The sheer humiliation and the chewing out over this those attorneys got from the judge, and which is now a matter of public record, probably hurt them more than any fine ever could.
That's fair. Reputation has a coat, for sure.
And it gives the courts a precedent they can point at when the next one tries it.
