Sticking it to the little guy

In response to the numerous lawsuits filed by a coalition of citizens opposed to bringing a private prison to their community, CCA has filed a claim to be reimbursed $7,500 in legal costs. Of course, CCA, who spent nearly 1,000 times that amount to secure the land for this project, before a final deal was in place, doesn't need this money. They just want to pressure the group into stopping their legal challenges to keep their community how they like it. And on top of all that, these legal bills were likely only so high because of delaying and diversionary tactics used by CCA during the litigation. And take it from someone who knows a thing or two about lawsuits; CCA likely did everything they could, at practically every stage of the process, to prolong discovery or distract attention from the merits of the suit.

I hate you, CCA.
