Per the New Jersey Law Journal: "A winning plaintiffs lawyer in a whistleblower suit -- who then had the whistle blown on him for creatively augmenting his fee -- is fighting a court order to give some of the money back. A New Jersey judge called 'presumptively unreasonable' an agreement that gave John Donnelly not only statutory fees under the Conscientious Employee Protection Act but also a 50 percent share of damages recovered. Donnelly said he crafted the arrangement to finance a long-shot case."
