Summary

The court affirmed the circuit court’s award of $323,266.53 in attorney’s fees, holding that the evidence and the circuit court’s consideration of the applicable fee factors supported the award despite counsel’s failure to provide contemporaneous time records. The court also affirmed the denial of prejudgment interest because the amount of damages in the illegal-exaction action was not definite or mathematically ascertainable when the action was filed. Separate opinions agreed with the denial of prejudgment interest but disagreed over whether the attorney-fee award was adequately supported.
