How have the courts dealt with the costs of an appeal?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Youngblood v. Board of Supervisors, 150 Cal.Rptr. 242, 22 Cal.3d 644, 586 P.2d 556 (Cal. 1978):

13 Although defendants prevailed on the appeal, the board of supervisors' amendment of the zoning ordinance subsequent to briefing and argument of the appeal gave plaintiffs a portion of the relief they sought. Under such circumstances, it would be unfair to require plaintiffs to bear the entire cost of the appeal. (Cf. Bell v. Board of Supervisors (1976) 55 Cal.App.3d 629, 637, 127 Cal.Rptr. 757.)
