In 2011 we reported on the massive judgment against Mattel in its battle with rival toymaker MGA over the Bratz line of dolls and accessories.  The judgment included $80+ million in compensatory damages, $80+ million in punitive damages, and $140 million in attorneys’ fees.

With a judgment like that, you might expect the appeal to result in a lengthy opinion.  Nope.  The Ninth Circuit needed only nine pages to completely vacate the compensatory and punitive damages and a portion of the fee award.
