Appellate Team Prevails in Oregon Court of Appeals
Janet Schroer and Ruth Casby have continued success for their clients in two recent dissolution appeals decided by the Oregon Court of Appeals. One appeal obtained reversal of the trial court’s legal error in failing to correctly enforce the parties’ property division settlement and the other obtained affirmance of a spousal support award rejecting 5 assignments of error. Based on their clients’ prevailing-party status, Janet and Ruth petitioned the Court of Appeals for an award of their clients’ appellate attorney fees against their former spouses. The Court of Appeals granted the petitions, allowing their clients to recover of all of their attorney fees incurred on appeal.
