The following excerpt is from Wertheim, LLC v. Currency Corp., B270926 (Cal. App. 2017):
"The date from which interest [on a judgment] should run and the interest rate 'are questions of law, which we review de novo.' [Citation.]" (Chodos v. Borman (2015) 239 Cal.App.4th 707, 712 [where appellate court order modified, rather than reversed, attorney fee award, interest on the fee award portion of the judgment ran from the date judgment first entered] (Chodos).) Our review is also de novo when deciding the date on which interest on the judgment stops accruing because our answer to that question turns on the meaning and application of a statute. (John v. Superior Court (2016) 63 Cal.4th 91, 95 ["We review questions of statutory construction de novo"].)
