Former presidential candidate and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and a handful of other defendants asked a federal judge for over $1 million in fees and costs as a sanction Monday evening following the dismissal of a RICO suit filed by former President Donald Trump. 

“Plaintiff’s pleadings and theories were obviously and fatally defective from the very inception of this action,” wrote attorney David Oscar Markus with Markus/Moss in the request for sanctions filed in South Florida federal court late Monday. The request for fees and costs was split into four categories, totaling just over $1 million, between 17 defendants.
