- holding that the trial court properly applied a multiplier in arriving at a reasonable attorney's fee in a suit for unpaid wages
- “adopting] the reasoning in Moxley ” that an alternative fee recovery clause does “not violate Rowe because a reasonable fee does not expose the party required to pay to being victimized by having to pay an excessive fee, which was the possible harm envisioned in Rowe ”
- “[Section 448.08 does not require the trial court to impose [attorney’s] fees on the successful employee in all cases, but only grants the court the discretion to do so.”
