Yoon v. Thaler CA1/2
Defendant Dena Thaler prevailed over plaintiff Jane Yoon in litigation involving contract and tort claims. The contract at issue included an attorneys’ fee provision, and the only issues in this appeal are Thaler’s contentions that the trial court’s awards of fees and costs are too low. Thaler requested $265,274 in attorneys’ fees, mostly for the defense of Thaler in cases that had been consolidated with Yoon’s, and $16,557 in costs, including deposition transcripts of plaintiffs in those other cases. The trial court awarded Thaler $41,280 in fees and $4,325 in costs. We conclude that Thaler has not shown that the trial court abused its discretion in awarding fees or costs, and therefore we will affirm.
