Attorney Barry Van Rensler, who charges $140 an hour in representing Upper Darby School District, said he billed the district for 75 hours of work instead of 0.75 of an hour, for a 45-minute conference on a property-tax appeal.

School officials said they do not believe the errors were intentional. [full story]
