Motion: Amend Judgment. Moving Party Plaintiff Samuel Farah. Responding Party Defendant Kamal Zeeb.
Ruling: The Motion to Amend the Judgment is GRANTED.
In Sears v. Baccaglio (1998) 60 Cal.App.4th 1136, 1148-1149, the appellate court stated that “cases proceeding under [Civil Code section]1032 as well as under [C.C.P.] section 1717 have rejected ‘exalt[ing] form over substance’ and have awarded fees and costs even to a party receiving a judgment of zero damages.”
On the Conversion causes of action, Plaintiff shall be deemed the prevailing party. There was no objection to the additional changes to the Judgment.
The court has considered Defendant’s late Objection to the Motion.
Moving party shall give notice.
