"DOJ spokeswoman Kristina Edmunson said Tuesday the agency does not expect to need to ask the Legislature for additional money for the cases"  After blowing triple the anticipated budget, what DOJ 'expects' is hardly reassuring.  The taxpayers 'expected' to get something for their $320 million and that didn't happen.  This thing isn't even close to the trial stage; this is just the beginning lawyer motion dancing phase.  And the State hasn't even been sued by the Federal Government to get back their portion of that $320 million yet.
