OPINION

LOUIS H. POLLAK, District Judge.

Currently pending before this court are plaintiff's petitions for attorney's fees for (1) the prosecution of this action and (2) a motion to hold defendant in contempt. Although in American practice the prevailing party does not normally recover attorney's fees, there are certain statutory and non-statutory exceptions to this general rule.

1. Attorney's Fee Award Under 15 U.S.C. § 77k
