A Motion to Quash Service in a FED (Eviction) case, where Plaintiff failed to follow Rule 304 regarding proper service of a Complaint and Summons. While it may seem so, the Defendants were not married, nor were they otherwise related. As the Rule requires service in this instance separately on each, even had Plaintiff properly served one tenant, he did not properly serve the other.
A Motion for an award of attorney’s fees in a civil FED case. Filed under 13-17-101 CRS, seeking the award for a substantially frivolous, groundless, and/or vexatious action and/or pleading. Fact specific, but a good starting point in any request for fees. It was ultimately denied as the defendant “was not aware of the possibility of an award of attorney’s fees” under 13-17-102(6), despite having had several discussions about exactly that on the record.
