Appellant Failed To Observe Many Appellate Rules Of Practice, Such That Affirmance Was In Order.
Sarkany v. West, Case No. A174750 (1st Dist., Div. 1 June 25, 2026) (unpublished) was a situation where plaintiffs won summary judgment in a fraudulent transfer action to preserve a substantial wrongful eviction judgment against the other side. The lower court awarded plaintiffs $256,087 in attorney’s fees, apparently inclusive of a 1.3 multiplier. Losing party on the fee award filed a 10-page AOB, nothing else. The appellate court affirmed the fee award because Appellant failed to make developed arguments and provide headings as required under the CRC, failed to articulate the standard of review, failed to provide evidence citations to show there was a lack of substantial evidence or abuse of discretion, and failed to show the award was excessive.
