The following excerpt is from Hot Rods, LLC v. Northrop Grumman Sys. Corp., 196 Cal.Rptr.3d 53, 242 Cal.App.4th 1166 (Cal. App. 2015):
Because we are reversing the judgment in part, including the bulk of the damage award, the attorney fees award must be reversed as well. We remand for consideration anew of the prevailing party determination and the amount of any attorney fee award. (Hsu v. Abbara (1995) 9 Cal.4th 863, 876, 39 Cal.Rptr.2d 824, 891 P.2d 804 ; see also
