California Court of Appeal

In a suit for breach of contract and unjust enrichment, in which defendant cross-complained asserting the reimbursement agreement was unenforceable and plaintiff-employer had violated the Labor Code and other statutory provisions in seeking reimbursement, the trial court's grant of summary judgment to plaintiff is: 1) affirmed as to summary judgment; but 2) reversed and remand as to the attorney fees award, where under California Supreme Court precedent, statutory provisions that alter the recovery of attorney fees are deemed procedural in nature and apply to pending litigation.
