Is a plaintiff entitled to attorney's fees on appeal?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Briscoe v. Nail, B252066 (Cal. App. 2014):
Briscoe requests attorney's fees on appeal. A statute authorizing the recovery of attorney's fees in the trial court also authorizes the recovery of fees on appeal unless the statute specifically provides to the contrary. (Morcos v. Board of Retirement (1990) 51 Cal.3d 924, 927.) Briscoe is entitled to recover attorney's fees for the appeal, in an amount to be determined by the trial court.
