February 22, 1993310 S.C. 492

Summary

The Supreme Court of South Carolina affirmed the Court of Appeals’ decision in part, modifying it to remand the issue of attorney’s fees for further fact‑finding. The Court held that an award of attorney’s fees authorized by contract must be supported by specific evidentiary findings on each statutory factor, and absent such support the appellate court must remand rather than reverse outright.
