California Court of Appeal
City of Santa Rosa v. Patel, A124199
In a red light abatement action, trial court's order awarding attorney fees for the City of Santa Rosa and the People of the State of California is remanded for a recalculation of the fee award, as the trial court erred in determining that it was required to use a cost-plus approach for calculating the city's fee award, rather than the the lodestar method to calculate the fee award.
