Michaels v. Ward CA4/2
Plaintiff and appellant Warren J. Michaels, representing himself in propria persona, seeks the return of more than a half million dollars in attorney fees and expenses paid to his former attorneys, plus punitive damages and interest. The bulk of the fees and expenses were paid pursuant to a fee agreement, after the attorneys substituted into the case and the representation resulted in a settlement before trial of $1.6 million in Michaels’s favor.
Michaels’s third amended complaint asserts purported causes of action for promissory fraud, conversion, and fraudulent misrepresentation. He appeals from the trial court’s judgment of dismissal, entered after it sustained without leave to amend the demurrer of defendants and respondents Matthew T. Ward, Law Offices of Matthew T. Ward, and Don C. Burns to the third amended complaint. We affirm the judgment.
