What is the burden of proving hours claimed?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Karnazes v. Hartford, A145672 (Cal. App. 2019):

many hours of work are claimed, it is the burden of the challenging party to point to the specific items challenged, with a sufficient argument and citations to the evidence. General arguments that fees claimed are excessive, duplicative, or unrelated do not suffice.' " (Lunada Biomedical v. Nunez (2014) 230 Cal.App.4th 459, 488.)
