MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Taylor v. Petaluma Valley Hosp., 898 F.2d 156 (9th Cir. 1990):

The hospital next contends that the district court incorrectly refused to reduce the lodestar by the hours worked by the attorneys after the date of the hospital's Rule 68 offer. 2 See Marek v. Chesny, 473 U.S. 1 (1985). We review de novo a court's decision applying Rule 68. Simon v. Intercontinental Trans., 882 F.2d 1435, 1439 (9th Cir.1989).
