Sakon v. Andreo

How courts have described this case

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

• reversing attorney’s fee sanction against opposing counsel for failing to timely file an amended complaint because there was no finding that counsel had acted in bad faith
• reversing sanctions order when it was unclear which source of power the district court relied on in imposing sanctions
• \[A] court's failure to cite any authority for its imposition of sanctions 'by itself might well be sufficient to warrant a remand.'\ (citation omitted) (emphasis added)
• sanctions entered pursuant to a court's inherent power are authorized \only when there is a finding of conduct constituting or akin to bad faith\
• “[A]n award [of sanctions] either without reference to any statute, rule, decision, or other authority, or with reference only to a source that is inapplicable will rarely be upheld.”
• “Because the various sources of the court’s authority [to impose sanctions] are governed by differing standards, it is imperative that the court explain its sanctions order ‘with care, specificity, and attention to the sources of its power.’”
