California Court of Appeal
San Diego Municipal Employees Assoc. v. City of San Diego, 066886
In an action for attorney's fees brought by unions that intervened in an underlying settled suit by a city to compel the San Diego City Employees Retirement System (SDCERS) to increase city employees' contributions to their retirement fund to share in covering an $800 million investment loss suffered by the fund, the trial court's denial of the motion for attorney's fees is affirmed where the unions were not entitled to fees as their involvement in the lawsuit was unnecessary to the result that was achieved.
