It depends what is being contested though.
Gore vs Bush was a court fight over whether a recount should be completed because votes had been missed after the main vote count had been completed and an automatic recount triggered

Earlier, on December 8, the Florida Supreme Court, by a vote of four to three, ordered a statewide recount of all undervotes, over 61,000 ballots that the vote tabulation machines had missed. The Bush campaign immediately asked the U.S. Supreme Court to stay the decision and halt the recount

The current disputes by Trump are about the main counts themselves to exclude votes that are known to exist.
