Walsh v. Woods

Stephen Best appeals a judgment awarding him attorneys fees under Code of Civil Procedure section 1021.5, contending the trial court erred in disallowing an award for fees incurred during administrative proceedings. We agree with his contention, reverse that portion of the judgment, and remand the case for a further calculation of attorneys fees. San Diego County Electrical Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (JATC) and California Apprenticeship Council (CAC) cross-appeal, meritlessly contending Best should not have been awarded any attorneys fees at all.
