Nine months after he secured an $18.3 million award for a man paralyzed in the 2003 Staten Island Ferry crash, attorney Evan Torgan returned to Brooklyn federal court yesterday to defend the propriety of his retainer agreement and to seek the reinstatement of his full fee. In May, Eastern District Judge Jack B. Weinstein forwarded Mr. Torgan's Rule 60(B)(6) motion for relief from the judge's decision cutting about $2.5 million from Mr. Torgan's fee to Magistrate Judge Viktor Pohorelsky. Judge Weinstein also asked the magistrate judge to consider whether the conditions under which the retainer agreement was signed - chiefly, in the hospital four days after the accident - warrant a referral to the "appropriate disciplinary committee."
