Court's Remarks on Consumer Attorney's Fees

Post by David A. Szwak »

McCain v. Detroit II Auto Finance Center
378 F.3d 561
C.A.6 (Mich.),2004.
August 05, 2004

Nothing in the terms of Detroit II's Rule 68 offer justified McCain's effort to have the tail wag the dog by seeking an attorney's fees recovery of fully two and one-half times the amount of the substantive judgment.
