Report Link Attorney Fee Awards Favor Employers.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - April 16, 2008 In employment law cases, attorney fee awards often add insult to injury. On top of large damage awards, courts often award substantial attorney fees to the employee's lawyer. Many labor and employment laws, such as the California Labor Code and the Fair Employment and Housing Act, include attorney fee provisions. Report Link Attorneys' Fee Award to California Employer for Defending Unfounded Discrimination and Retaliation Claims Upheld.Jackson Lewis LLP - March 26, 2008 Affirming an attorneys’ fee award of almost $40,000 to an employer in a race discrimination and retaliation case brought under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the California Court of Appeal has ruled that the award was warranted in light of the plaintiff’s unfounded claims. Finding that the plaintiff failed to prove that the employer’s reasons for its actions were pretextual, the court affirmed summary judgment in favor of the employer and rejected the plaintiff’s attempt to reverse the judgment by relying on evidence excluded by the trial court to raise a material issue of disputed fact.
