Here is Gura's Appeal to the 7th for McDonald, squabbling over the ticket: http://www.chicagoguncase.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/mcdonald_fee_appellants_brief_final_e.pdf
The District Court actually said the prevailing party wasn't entitled to fees under 1988. Wow is all I can say. I knew that the 2A was a bit of a red headed step child in the pecking order of rights with these folks, but to say that competent legal counsel can't be secured to fight Civil Rights violations because that counsel might not get paid? Fail...
1983 and 1988 were written for a reason....
