ellauri364.html on line 552: On June 23, 1988, United States federal judge James Lawrence King of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida dismissed the case stating: "The plaintiffs have made no showing of existence of genuine issues of material fact with respect to either the bombing at La Penca, the threats made to their news sources or threats made to themselves." According to The New York Times, the case was dismissed by King at least in part due to "the fact that the vast majority of the 79 witnesses Mr. Sheehan cites as authorities were either dead, unwilling to testify, fountains of contradictory information or at best one person removed from the facts they were describing." On February 3, 1989, King ordered the Christic Institute to pay $955,000 in attorney's fees and $79,500 in court costs.

The fine was levied in accordance with “Rule 11” of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which says that lawyers can be penalized for frivolous lawsuits.

xxx/ellauri170.html on line 450: I added the entry for the verb blow (in the relevant sense) from the Eleventh Collegiate Dictionary, including that dictionary's take on the etymology of the term. I'm very surprised that no one before Elena Lysko pointed out the correct meaning of blow in the quotation cited by the OP; the question has been on EL&U for almost three years, and has been seen by more than 2,700 people. In any case, thank you, Elena Lysko, for providing this long overdue clarification. –
