U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-3539
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Jefferson City
[PUBLISHED] Kelly, Author, with Gruender and Murphy, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Attorneys' fees. Plaintiff obtained a permanent injunction
against the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services after the
agency attempted to revoke plaintiff's license to provide abortion
services, but the license expired while the matter was on appeal; held,
plaintiff was a prevailing party in the underlying action and was entitled
to an award of attorneys' fees; plaintiff's recovery in the case was not
so technical as to render the award an abuse of discretion.
