XTC Investments v. Stingl CA2/4
Respondents Jonica Stingl and her solely owned corporation, Zion II, Inc., filed cross-claims for breach of contract, indemnity, and fraud against appellants Errol Gaum (Errol) and his solely owned corporation, Nova Gold, Inc. Stingl and Zion II prevailed on the breach of contract and indemnity claims after a bench trial and were awarded compensatory damages of $1,311,772. The trial court also awarded them $98,330.65 in attorney fees pursuant to Civil Code section 1717. In these consolidated appeals, Gaum and Nova Gold challenge both the substantive rulings and the award of attorney fees. We affirm in full. Zion II is entitled to reasonable attorney fees on appeal. We remand to the trial court for determination of those fees.
