The following excerpt is from Save Westwood Vill. v. Luskin, B257354 (Cal. App. 2015):
The deadlines for filing a motion to claim entitlement to statutory attorney fees or to determine the amount of such fees may be extended, for good cause, under rule 3.1702(d): "For good cause, the trial judge may extend the time for filing a motion for attorney's fees . . . ." (Rule 3.1702(d).) Rule 3.1702(d) is "'remedial' and is to be given a liberal, rather than strict interpretation. [Citation.]" (Lewow v. Surfside III Condominium Owners Assn., Inc. (2012) 203 Cal.App.4th 128, 135.)
