Judge: Mark H. Epstein, Case: 21SMCV01658, Date: 2023-09-12 Tentative Ruling

Case Number: 21SMCV01658    Hearing Date: November 22, 2023    Dept: I

In the supplemental briefing, it appears that defendants agree that the fees are more properly added to the amount of the debt rather than recoverable as a post-trial cost.  Accordingly, the motion is DENIED.  Defendant may seek to incorporate these fees into the debt, but the court makes no comment on what effect the summary judgment order has on such an attempt.
