Causey v. Belknap Hardware Manufacturing Company

1 Citing case

  1. Miller v. Patterson

    240 So. 2d 22 (La. Ct. App. 1970)   Cited 3 times

    Our courts have consistently held that attorney's fees are not elements of damages under LSA-C.C. art. 2506. Voss v. Roach, 35 So.2d 142 (2d Cir. 1948); also Causey v. Belknop Hardware Manufacturing Company, 250 F. Supp. 312 (D.C. 1966). Therefore the judgment of the trial court is amended by reducing the sum awarded Patterson and against Mrs. Reynolds and Mrs. Velasco from $2,050 each to the sum of $1,500 each, and deleting the sum of $500 granted Patterson against Mrs. Reynolds and Mrs. Velasco as attorney's fees.
