[DOKUMENT] Afgørelse (2 sider) B3693000- PB/MRO

UDSKRIFT AF ØSTRE LANDSRETS RETSBOG

Den 29. august 20 14 satte Østre Landsret retten i retsbygningen, Bredgade 59, København.

Som dommer fungerede landsdommer M. Stassen.

Som protokolfører fungerede sektionsleder Anonymiseret

Der foretoges

l O. afd. nr. B-3693-12: Alm. Brand Forsikring A/S (advokat Christina Neugebauer) mod Sagsøgte (advokat Lars Sandager, besk.)

Ingen var indkaldt eller mødt.

Der fremlagdes breve af 8. juli og 5. august 20 14 med bilag fra den beskikkede advokat, advokat Lars Sandager med anmodning om yderligere salær.

Landsretten besluttede, at forhøje salæret med 40.000 kr. , der med tillæg af moms betales af statskassen, idet Sagsøgte efter det oplyste ikke har retshjælpsforsikringsdækning.

Landsretten har ved salærfastsættelsen taget hensyn til sagens genstand og udfald, sagens omfang og varighed for landsretten, og det dermed forbundne skønnede rimelige tidsforbrug.

Sagen på ny sluttet.

Retten hævet.
