Apple Wants Samsung to Pay $15 Million of Its Legal Tab, Now Over $60 Million for Current Case

In court filings, Apple asked a federal judge to order Samsung to pay more than $15 million in legal fees, an amount it says is a fraction of the more than $60 million in outside legal bills it has racked up in the current San Jose (CA) case.

It also wants $6 million in other miscellaneous costs, such as copying and electronic filings. Apple says it has paid or expects to pay lead law firm Morrison & Foerster approximately $60 million and also expects to pay $2 million to a second law firm, Wimer Hale.
