THE ROBING ROOM

It appears as she working for the government most of her career has biased her severely. She is entirely one-sided in claims for attorney fees against a government entity, and has been rather nasty to the plaintiff bar seeking fees. Her use of the caselaw on the issue seems to interpret every element to diminish a fee award, to discourage the attorneys from taking cases representing low-income clients. She drew assumptions about claims there were not based on fact or the experience of any litigator in the field -- for example assuming drafting of a unique document takes about a third of the actual time it took.
