Pope Investments LLC v. the Marilyn Abrams Living Trust

Summary

The Court denied the Trust’s post-mandate motion for appellate attorneys’ fees because the mandate had issued and the Court no longer had jurisdiction to consider the motion’s merits or recall the mandate. It also held that requests for attorneys’ fees should be made before entry of final judgment in the trial court and during appellate briefing in the Supreme Court. The request was independently untimely because no fee request had been made in the original appeal.
