Mariah Carey<\/strong><\/a> may have some extra Christmas cash this year … because the judge who dismissed a lawsuit filed against her over her popular Christmas song just ordered the folks who dragged her to court to pay her more than $92,000 in sanctions.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

According to new legal docs — obtained by TMZ — the judge ordered sanctions against the people who filed the action against Mariah, finding it lacked merit and determining there was good reason to deter people from filing baseless lawsuits.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

The docs show Mariah was awarded $92,303.20 in sanctions … and several thousand more were ordered to be paid to other parties involved in the case … bringing the total tab to nearly $110K.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

As we reported … Mariah was sued in November 2023 by Andy Stone<\/strong> and Troy Powers<\/strong>, who claimed Mariah copied <\/strong><\/a>their 1989 song, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The men were going after Mariah for at least $20 million in damages … but the judge tossed the lawsuit in March and has now hit their counsel with sanctions.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
