Marriage of Watts CA4/3
Michelle has appealed from two orders of the family court, one denying her request for attorney fees and a subsequent order denying her request for a new trial on the issue of her attorney fees.
The orders from which Michelle appeals arose from her request for attorney fees made in August 2015. The matter was not heard until January 2016, by which time the fees had mounted to over $37,000. In ruling on the request, the court found that 1) the activities generating the fees were unwarranted and 2) James could not pay them. The court’s findings roundly criticized Michelle and her counsel.
We affirm the orders denying the request for attorney fees and denying the request for a new trial.
