Maughan v. Google Tech., Inc

In Maughan v. Google Tech., Inc. (2006) 143 Cal.App.4th 1242, the Court found that the trial court had not abused its discretion by reducing a requested attorney fee and cost award of $112,288, based on over 200 hours of labor, to $23,000, based on the estimated 50 hours of labor expended by opposing counsel. (Maughan, supra, 143 Cal.App.4th at p. 1250-51.) In Maughan the substituted hours were based on hours expended by opposing counsel.
