Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers has asked a court to force former President Donald Trump, his lawyers, and former Trump campaign attorney Sidney Powell to pay thousands of dollars in legal fees over their presidential election lawsuits.
In court documents filed on Wednesday, attorneys for Evers called lawsuits that disputed the 2020 election results meritless and built on inscrutable conspiracy theories.

Gov. Tony Evers is asking former President Donald Trump and a GOP official who filed lawsuits challenging Wisconsinâs presidential election results to pay at least $250,000 in legal fees to prevent state taxpayers from having to foot the legal costs the governorâs office accrued defending against the lawsuits.
Supporters of President Donald Trump gather at the Wisconsin State Capitol on Friday.
Evers, through his attorneys on Wednesday, filed motions in two cases in federal court brought by Trump and La Crosse County Republican Party chairman William Feehan in the wake of the November presidential election.
Evers called on Trump and Feehan to pay $250,000 in fees, arguing the lawsuits the two Republicans filed were frivolous, based on scant evidence and wasted state taxpayer dollars in having to defend against them.
MADISON - Gov. Tony Evers is asking two federal courts to make former President Donald Trump and a Republican Party official pay more than $250,000 in legal fees to shield taxpayers from costs in a pair of election lawsuits.
Trump and his allies brought a string of lawsuits after he narrowly lost Wisconsin, but court after court threw them out.
The Democratic governor filed motions late Wednesday in two of those cases seeking to have those who brought the cases pay for legal fees.
If Evers is successful, in one case Trump would have to pay more than $145,000. In the other case, William Feehan, the chairman of the Republican Party of La Crosse County, would have to pay about $107,000.
