Attorneys for Cinemark want victims of a 2012 shooting at a Colorado movie theater to pay nearly $700,000 in legal fees after they unsuccessfully sued the theater chain. They sued in state court, saying security lapses allowed for the July 20, 2012 attack at a midnight premiere of a Batman film. But Colorado courts allow the winning side of a court case to recover legal fees. A judge last week dismissed a similar lawsuit in federal court, saying Cinemark's lack of security was not a substantial factor in the deaths. Cinemark argued it could not have foreseen the attack, and nothing could have stopped the heavily armed Holmes.
