California man wins $39,000 from wife in divorce case, court reverses award over missed deadline
A California man who won a $39,000 legal-fee award against his wife during their divorce proceedings has lost it after an appeals court ruled that he filed his claim too late. The couple had settled their competing restraining order requests in January 2024, but the husband sought legal fees 14 months later. On Wednesday, the appeals court overturned the award.
