20. actually, suing the state, (or county)
is extremely tough. Most states protect the municipal bodies with certain amounts of immunity, not found in the normal world. I suspect that imunity was the problem in your case.
That is an extremely high standard. VERY TOUGH to beat. You are lucky to get costs back, which means you had a damned good lawyer.

(We are not all money sucking shits - some of us actually work to help others. looks like you found one of those)
