The amount of your money that @TNattygen wastes trying to prop up clearly unconstitutional laws is frankly unconscionable: https://dmn.0e5.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Tennesseans-for-Sensible-Election-Laws-v-Slatery-MOR-Attorney-fees-ruling.pdf
Yesterday’s order comes just a week after the additional quarter million dollar haircut that @TNattygen gave you last week. It’s not his money, though—it’s yours—so he doesn’t care. 
. @TNattygen also spent another $50k (including a few thousand extra because they slow-walked ordered payment) of your money a few weeks prior: https://dmn.0e5.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tennesseans-for-Sensible-Election-Laws-v-TN-Bureau-Ethics-MOR-Rule-on-Pl-add-atty-fees-and-costs-after-remand.pdf
Also, for context, these are just the cases I know about. There’s no telling how many other cases are out there.

This isn’t exactly rare. For instance, @TNattygen will generously stroke a check of probably $200,000 or so of your money to @BeaconTN pretty shortly: https://fox17.com/news/local/nashville-barber-takes-down-the-system-wins-lawsuit-against-state-agency
To be clear, none of this is actually necessary, and it certainly isn’t necessary for the awards to be this substantial. It’s a consequence of the (bad faith) way that @TNattygen litigates cases: https://dmn.0e5.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tennesseans-for-Sensible-Election-Laws-v-TN-Bureau-Ethics-MOR-Rule-on-Pl-add-atty-fees-and-costs-after-remand.pdf
Competent counsel would: (1) help prevent clearly unconstitutional laws from being enacted in the first place, and (2) quickly acknowledge clearly unconstitutional laws and get the legislature to change them in lieu of gratuitously defending them. But @TNattygen is not competent.
