California Court of Appeal

Where ex-wife discharged her law firm and withdrew motion for an award of fees before the trial court ruled, depriving the court of jurisdiction over the case, the trial court erred in enforcing attorney fee request made by the firm, requiring ex-husband to pay fees to the former attorneys for his ex-wife.
