The publication has also given him “shout outs” for three other cases: once for obtaining a unanimous, case-ending reversal in the U.S. Supreme Court in a Section 1782 proceeding, again for securing approval of a $1.325 billion settlement following victory at trial, and a third time for obtaining an order dismissing the bankruptcy case of Alex Jones’s company, FSS.
