Joe Scheidler Wins in Fed Court: NOW Must Pay His Court Costs

Patheos: After 28 years, the National Organization for Women has lost in their bid to silence pro-life organizer Joseph Scheidler.  Additionally, a panel of federal judges has ruled that NOW must pay court costs  of $63,391.45 for Scheidler and his co-defendants for the court battle which began in 1986.

The Washington Times reported that the judges called the costs “modest,” amounting to “less than $2,300 per year of litigation.”

“At last it is over,” said the panel.  Judge Frank H. Easterbrook of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals wrote in the case, “This suit began 28 years ago and has been to the Supreme Court three times.”  Read more here.
