i thought these two came to an agreement now it looks like the NCAA just wants to get some cash for like no reason
court cases are not cheap if a company uses you to make money without permission and you spend a bunch to get compensation, you ought to also be paid for those legal fees, since the offending company forced you to spend in order to get said compensation the practice of NOT making the losing party pay all of the legal fees is a large part of why patent trolls can exist

But this only applies to guaranteed fees in a sense. The legal limit on lawyer fees, costs of the proceedings itself etc etc. What it rarely covers are supralimit lawayer fees which are contract based. And for obvious reasons.
Is this related to the settlement check I recently got in the mail from EA? [editline]22nd November 2013[/editline] Iirc, it did have something to do with EA sports
