U.S. District Judge Robert W. Gettleman said Oasis Legal Finance had demonstrated that the case was "exceptional," giving the company all the costs they had asked for, which included $2,995,000 in attorney fees and about $108,000 in taxable costs. Its ex-CEO Gary Chodes was sued over founding or helping to found "Oasis Legal Finance Group" and "Oasis Disability Group."
