I don’t usually review unpublished decisions for material for this blog. But unpublished decisions, even if they don’t create new law, can have some interesting points. (Just ask Bisnar | Chase.)
California Attorney’s Fees has a good post, based on an unpublished decision filed last Monday, reminding everyone to appeal separately from a fee award in addition to any appeal from the judgment. The appellant in the case filed an untimely notice of appeal from the judgment that did not include an appeal from the subsequent fee award, then filed an untimely notice of appeal from the fee award. Result: untimely appeal, no jurisdiction, appeal dismissed.
