Attorney's Fees Calculation in Construction Contract Dispute
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe initial appeal concerned the proper calculation of attorney's fees awarded to the prevailing party, specifically regarding whether certain costs were recoverable, given a dispute over the applicability of a state statute governing fee awards in cases involving construction contracts, which provided a mandatory award unless the court made specific findings. The court reasoned that the mandatory fee provision of the cited statute did apply to the case as it involved a contract dispute arising from construction work, and the trial court erred by failing to make the required specific statutory findings to avoid the mandatory award, thereby necessitating a remand for recalculation or justification of the fee award.
