SCOTT v. VEAL

No. 99-43.

736 So.2d 308 (1999)

Felecia SCOTT, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Earl James VEAL, Defendant-Appellee.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

May 5, 1999.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Harold Dewey Register, Jr., Lafayette, for Felecia Scott.

Glen E. Smith, Miami, for Earl James Veal.

BEFORE: YELVERTON, THIBODEAUX, and SULLIVAN, Judges.


THIBODEAUX, Judge.

Felecia Scott appeals a judgment of the trial court ordering her to pay court costs, attorney fees, and expenses totaling $15,694.00. Scott seeks a reduction of the judgment, contending that the award for attorney fees and court costs is excessive. For the reasons which follow, the judgment of the trial court awarding the defendant-appellee, Earl James Veal, $5,400.00 in attorney fees is reversed. In all other respects, we affirm.
