Recovering Discretionary Costs

John Day posted this morning on Day on Torts about a new opinion on recovering discretionary costs from the Court of Appeals, Carpenter v. Klepper. In Carpenter, the Court spent a full five pages discussing recovering discretionary costs under Rule 54.04(2). The Court goes into detail as to the burden of proving discretionary costs at trial and the standard of review on appeal, and analyzes which of the costs requested by two different parties could be properly awarded. Whether you are the prevailing party or just trying to stop the bleeding on the losing end, take a look to Carpenter before filing your brief.
