    I mean maybe they decided it was going to be easier to buy a judge than another FCC chair?

      Are there any past examples of companies getting out of fines that way? Even Facebook had to pay 20Bn, you would think they could have gotten a judge for only 15 if it were so easy.

        There are plenty of examples of companies challenging the legality of regulations and winning, and other cases of apparent corruption among judges.

          Yes I was asking you to present one case in which an FCC ban or fine was avoided with the courts.
