Yes I know that this is unusual in the US (over here all civil trials is looser pays all costs) but if this proposal would be law then it would of course be usual :).

And would it be such a stretch to imagine that in such trails when the defending side argues to the judge that they don't think that the other side would pay due to being a shell company, that the judge would order an escrow?
