Re: One BEEELLION dollars!!
Might start at a billion, and the company's lawyer decide "he's not getting a penny, and we'll make it as expensive for him as possible".
Doesn't cost the plaintiff a cent IF his lawyer is on a contingency basis. In a nice, high profile, juicy, possibly precedent-setting case like this, I will bet that a lawyer is happy to bear expenses for the time being, for a possible 40% payoff AND the fame if it goes his/her way.
