The fraud lawsuit against Coca-Cola that sparked the beverage giant’s feud with longtime outside counsel Paul Hastings has taken a dramatic turn, with new allegations, additional multinational defendants and alleged damages swelling from $100 million to “hundreds of millions.”

The case filed early this year by the tech startup SuperCooler, which court records indicate Paul Hastings took on a contingency basis, could yield an enormous payout to the law firm if successful, perhaps explaining why it was so eager to take the case despite strong objections from Coke.
