A state district court in Dallas has added $2.7 million in attorneys' fees to last month's jury verdict in favor of premium casual video game developer MumboJumbo against rival developer PopCap. When added to the jury's award of $4.6 million, the total amount to be paid by PopCap now stands at $7.3 million. "We are happy to see the court award these fees," says attorney Mike Richardson of Rose•Walker in Dallas, who represents MumboJumbo. "MumboJumbo shouldn't have to bear the cost of proving that PopCap breached the contract here." Last month, a jury found Seattle-based PopCap liable for fraud and tortious interference for breaching a contract with Dallas-based MumboJumbo and souring a relationship between MumboJumbo and a key retailer.
