Palin's legal defense fund

.
Gov. Sarah Palin reportedly now has more than $600,000 in legal bills as a result of a string of frivolous ethics complaints - 14 of which have been dismissed so far with no finding she violated the state ethics act. [but they continue to be filed, one after another despite their demonstrated lack of legitimate standing - it's litigation as financial weapon]

Other complaints have not been settled, and Kristan Cole, the trustee for the legal defense fund, said the bills continue to climb and "my sense is they are over $600,000." Palin in March had pegged the debt at that time as more than $500,000.

Palin's friends and supporters created the legal defense fund, called the Alaska Fund Trust, in April and is raise roughly $100,000 so far.

"Our trust is one of the most, if not the most, restrictive and transparent legal expense funds in history,"

asserted Cole, a longtime friend of Palin's. Cole says there is no legal limit on how much people can donate to the fund, but it has a self-imposed maximum contribution of $150.

"You just cannot believe how many people really believe in this governor like I do and others do and are sending in checks for 5 and 10 dollars, saying this is all I have at this time but I'll send you another 5 dollars in two months,"

Cole said.

"It's really incredible."
