Marwa Elzankaly appeared before the Ninth Circuit for a rehearing en banc, arguing that the federal government acted in bad faith by defending the indefensible in a case involving a Malaysian woman who was wrongfully placed on the No-Fly List. En banc rehearing is rarely granted. Speaking before 11 judges, Elzankaly contended that because the government defended this case in bad faith for eight years, the client should be awarded $3.8 million in attorneys’ fees and $300,000 in costs.
