227 P. 277 | Or. | 1924
This is an appeal from an order of the Circuit Court fixing the fees of the attorneys for the plaintiffs.
While this case was originally begun by plaintiffs in their own behalf, the attorneys, upon further investigation, caused the state to be brought in as a party, and in this court the principal contention resolved itself into an effort on the part of plaintiffs to compel the execution of the trust, so far as it related to the White Shield Home of Portland, Oregon, and in this and to this end the briefs of plaintiffs’ attorneys, as well as those of the state, were directed.
It having been stipulated in the court below that a separate allowance should be made to each attorney, it is therefore ordered that Mr. Mannix and Mr. Powers each be paid the sum of $7,500, and $500 each as expenses. Modified.
