GWANDIKU v. STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTO INS., 07-580 (La.App. 3 Cir. 1/9/08)
GENOVESE, JUDGE.
We grant the Application for Limited Rehearing filed on behalf of Defendants, Pat Adams PT Associates, Inc. and Pat Adams (collectively Adams), for the sole and limited purpose of addressing the issue of attorney fees on appeal, which was not addressed in our original opinion.
Considering the mandatory attorney fee language in La. Code Civ.P. art. 971(B), the fact that Adams was successful in obtaining relief on appeal, the fact that Plaintiffs, Dr. Stella Gwandiku, et al., were unsuccessful in obtaining relief on appeal, and the fact that the appeal necessitated additional work by counsel for Adams, we award Adams an additional $2,000.00 in attorney fees for work done on appeal. Vickers v. Interstate Dodge, Inc., 04-109 (La.App. 3 Cir. 9/29/04), 882 So.2d 1236. We hereby amend our original opinion to reflect an additional award of $2,000.00 in attorney fees to Adams for work done on appeal.
AFFIRMED AS AMENDED.
