MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Southeast Legal Defense Group v. Adams, 657 F.2d 1118 (9th Cir. 1981):
The issue of whether the award of attorney fees should be adjusted to account for inflation was first raised in plaintiffs' post-argument supplemental brief. We therefore decline to consider it. See Ellingson v. Burlington Northern, Inc., 653 F.2d 1327 (9th Cir. 1981).
