Re: Motion for fees
Not ordinarily. However, if the litigation is frivolous or there is a violation of ruels of conduct or an offer of judgment was made, then these circumstances may give rise in very limited situations to liability for an adversaries attorneys fees. That is the "exception versus the rule". Please feel fre to contact me if you ahve further questions.
