Turner v. Anand CA4/1
William Lawrence Turner appeals from the trial court's order granting in part and denying in part his motion to recover attorney fees and costs from the defendants in an action in which Turner alleged a violation of the Unruh Civil Rights Act (Civ. Code, § 51 et seq.) (the Unruh Act) based on the defendants' provision of a handicapped parking space at their place of business that did not conform to accessibility guidelines. Turner contends that the trial court erred in failing to award the attorney fees that Turner incurred in a previous action filed in federal district court against defendants, which was dismissed as moot after the defendants promptly fixed the parking space. We conclude that the trial court properly omitted the fees incurred in the federal action, and we accordingly affirm the order.
