Doll v. Doll

1 Citing case

  1. Interdiction of F.T.E

    622 So. 2d 667 (La. Ct. App. 1993)   Cited 2 times

    If there is no community, the estate of the interdict is liable. In Doll v. Doll, 160 So.2d 323 (La.App. 4th Cir. 1964), the court found that payment of attorney fees out of the estate of the interdict is merely indemnification in favor of the party who brought the interdiction proceedings and who would otherwise be personally obliged to pay the attorney he employed. This court has previously ruled that attorney fees are an element of costs to be assessed in an interdiction proceeding.
