The wechat users' Federation of the United States sought compensation from the U.S. government and was compensated $900000 for lawyer fees

2021-10-27

The US wechat Users Association (uswua) said on October 25 that after it initiated a lawsuit against the trump government's "wechat ban" and won the court, the Biden government revoked the "wechat ban" in June this year. Since then, the uswua lawyers' group attacked again and demanded compensation from the U.S. government to pay the economic price for the previous absurd mistakes. After months of negotiations, uswua and the U.S. Department of justice reached an agreement last week, and the U.S. government agreed to compensate uswua for the lawyer's fees, totaling $900000. On August 6, 2020, at the white hot stage of the trump government's crazy crackdown on China, trump issued a presidential decree requiring the US Department of Commerce to declare that wechat endangers the national security of the United States and prohibit the use of wechat in the United States. Since then, uswua was established and submitted a petition to the court accusing the U.S. government that the wechat prohibition order violated the constitutional rights of U.S. wechat users. The day before the injunction came into effect, the court approved the initial injunction motion against the injunction and stopped the prohibition of wechat. After the Biden administration took office, it requested the court to suspend the appeal case of wechat ban, and signed a presidential decree in June this year to withdraw the wechat ban signed by trump. In August, the US Department of justice formally submitted a notice of withdrawal to the court, and the wechat ban case was officially ended. Uswua said that for the $900000 compensation obtained from the U.S. government, after consulting with the five law firms involved in the case, it decided to first compensate the expenses paid by each law firm to the third party, and the rest was allocated to the five law firms in proportion to the time invested in each law firm's case.
