LAS VEGAS (AP) A judge is awarding a Hong Kong businessman who sued Las Vegas Sands Corp. more than $1 million to cover his expenses for the six-week trial.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports Clark County District Judge Rob Bare announced his decision Wednesday.
The $1.03 million award is 10 percent less than plaintiff Richard Suen had asked for. Sands had asked for a 90 percent discount on Suen's stated expenses.
About half the amount went toward constructing and presenting a slideshow of evidence and arguments.
Richard Suen was awarded $70 million this spring by a jury who believed he helped Sands win a contract in the gambling enclave of Macau but was stiffed on the payment. Sands says Suen did nothing to help, and plans to appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court.
