The Dover, Pennsylvania, school board has agreed to pay $1 million toward plaintiffs' costs in the suit on intelligent design (ID) it lost in December (Science, 6 January, p. 34). Judge John E. Jones III ruled that reasonable court costs totaled more than $2 million, but after 2 months of negotiations, lawyers for the winning side agreed to settle for less than half that amount. "We'll find a way to take care of it," says board member Bernadette Reinking. Eight board members who supported ID were voted out last fall, putting the onus on the new board to pay for the suit.
