What are the costs and fees for attorney's fees incurred at the trial court level?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Hall-Villareal v. City of Fresno, F060144, Super. Ct. No. 09CECG04145 (Cal. App. 2011):

In her response brief, Hall-Villareal requests attorney's fees pursuant to Government Code section 800. She requested attorney's fees below, but the trial court denied her request, ordering that the parties bear their own costs and fees. Since Hall-Villareal did not cross-appeal, we do not reconsider her request for attorney's fees incurred at the trial court level. (Johnston v. Department of Personnel Administration (1987) 191 Cal.App.3d 1218, 1227, fn. 6.)
