Blake v. Blake

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that appeals court has jurisdiction over case despite the pendency of attorney fees determination in trial court
• holding that an appeal from a trial court’s judgment on the merits does not deprive the judgment-rendering court of jurisdiction to consider an award of counsel fees under Maryland Code (1984, 1991 Repl.Vol., 1995 Cum. Supp.), §§ 11-110, 12-103 of the Family Law Article
• finding that the pending claims for attorney fees were collateral to the merits, where they were not pursuant to a contract, and, thus, did not preclude an otherwise complete order from being a final judgment
• “[A] decision on the merits is a ‘final decision' ... whether or not there remains for adjudication a request for attorney’s fees attributable to the case.”
