Kelly v. Mayer CA4/1
Dwight Kelly sued Sondra Mayer and Sharon Newby, individually and as trustees of the Wilton Kenneth Newby Trust (collectively, the Newby Trust defendants), for breach of contract and other related causes of action, and, in response, the Newby Trust defendants sued Kelly and his wife (collectively, the Kellys) alleging usury and various causes of action related to fraud. Following a jury trial, the court entered a judgment by which Kelly took nothing on the complaint and the Newby Trust defendants took nothing on the cross-complaint. Both parties filed a motion for attorney's fees and costs and the court granted both motions. Kelly argues the court erred by admitting prejudicial and irrelevant evidence, and the Newby Trust defendants argue the court erred by awarding the Kellys fees and by improperly reducing the amount of fees awarded to them.
