Attorney General McKenna seeks to cut state's lawsuit costs

OLYMPIA — As Washington's budget woes compound, Attorney General Rob McKenna is making suggestions for how the state might reduce what it spends in legal judgments and settlements.

Washington paid more than $50 million in such costs in 2009. McKenna says that's between four times and 12 times as much as comparably sized states, including Massachusetts, Arizona, Tennessee and Indiana.

Of course Rob, not filing frivolous lawsuits like the one you've got against the recently passed federal healthcare act would help too.
