The hits keep coming for Tim Eyman.

Washington AG Bob Ferguson wants an additional $2.8 million in legal fees from Tim Eyman

A month ago, a judge ruled the veteran initiative promoter and conservative activist has been a years-long, egregious violator of state campaign finance law, fined him $2.6 million and barred him for life from participating in the financial aspects of political campaigns. Now the bill for the court case is coming due.

State Attorney General Bob Ferguson wants an additional $2.8 million in legal fees and costs, after his lawsuit against Eyman dragged on for nearly four years due to what Ferguson called Eyman’s “cost-inflating, frivolous, obstructive and defiant litigation tactics.”

..him up or throw him into Debtor's Prison!

Oh, that's right. Neither will happen, jail or the non-existent DP. Too bad but even a judgement is just a piece of paper, and a poor substitute for jail!

Our flimsy legal system at work again!
