A New Jersey defense attorney has agreed to cough up $12,000 in attorneys' fees for accusing Missouri Supreme Court finalist Joe Jacobson and his law partner of coaching former TWA pilots to lie on the stand in a high-stakes case. In an Oct. 12 letter included in federal court filings, Archer & Greiner attorney Steven Fram said that his firm would pay the fees and $2,500 each in sanctions to Jacobson and his partner Allen Press. U.S. Senior District Judge Joseph Irenas last month ordered the sanctions and attorneys' fees and turned down Fram's request to pull Jacobson and Press from the case.

The city's handling of bids on two massive public works contracts funded by federal stimulus money has drawn an accusation of favoritism from Fru-Con Construction Corp., which has suggested that Baltimore construction giant Whiting-Turner Contracting Co. is receiving special treatment. Baltimore officials have tossed out all bids submitted on a roughly $120 million project to remove nitrogen deposits from water at the Patapsco Wastewater Treatment Plant, saying that the two lowest, a $115.4 million proposal from Whiting-Turner and Fru-Con's $122.7 million bid, did not comply with city procurement rules.
