Look up what "court costs" means.

All of Tatuaje's legal fees for their defense of this suit is out of pocket and is not covered under "court costs".

Only time you generally see legal fees covered is if an agreement to settle is reached that incorporates legal fees as part of it or in cases of contracts where the contract stipulates the person filing suit to enforce it is entitled to fees. In those cases, many states say that then applies to both parties so either that prevails will get legal fees.

Not an attorney but did stay at a Holiday Inn.
