He did and was. I asked the same question. Here's how it goes: lawyers don't work for free, so the mayor was paying the monthly bills on the case. However, Council policy kicked in once the case was over and the lawyers then sent the full bill (including what was paid previously) to The City of Calgary, which then paid the bill (as per Council policy). So, it is now up to the mayor to return to the lawyers and ask for his money back.
