Explain to me like I’m retarded, as I am, but how many of the cases we are searching are a defendant being awarded their costs? Pat sued Quasi and lost, that’s gotta be different to some deadbeat who doesn’t pay his credit card bill.

No idea. Not even sure how you can get that info from free public data. Wisconsin doesn't have anti-slapp, so they would have to be foreign judgments domesticated. You'd have to cross-reference the case somehow to the state it originated from. you could maybe extrapolate form that original case who the plaintiff and defendant were. A paid service like lexusnexus might be able to to it. Otherwise, maybe something like judyrecords if they have an api. The logic might be something like

  • get state of origin
  • query DB by state, debtor, and year or case number
  • if debtor = plaintiff then assign a probability to this fulfilling your criteria

My guess would be if you rounded down... basically 0 per year.


edit: On second thought, you could just get wisconsin records. If you have a contract or arbitration where it says attorney fees are awarded if you lose, then you might have a wisconsin based debt where the defendant was awarded.
