Judge reduces fees in Taos banner rights case
District Judge Sam Sanchez ordered the town of Taos to pay 10 hours of attorney fees at 175 dollars per hour for each of two suits, totaling 3,500 dollars, far less than the 12,763.74 dollars requested by lawyers Jeff Haas and Manuel Nanasi. The ruling follows ACT's 2005 victory granting a restraining order allowing a banner promoting a peace rally despite Taos bans on the Rumsfeld reference.
