SBJ Shareholders Jeff James  and Jennifer Parda-Aldrich recently received some good news from the Washington Court of Appeals.  In an unpublished opinion, the Court affirmed the award of sanctions issued against opposing counsel and his client for bringing a frivolous lawsuit.  In the original action, the trial court dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice and awarded our client its full attorney fees and costs for having had to defend the action in the first place.  On appeal, the appellate court not only affirmed the lower court’s decision – it awarded additional fees and costs against opposing counsel and his client for bringing a frivolous appeal!
