Wolfriver’s contention it was the prevailing party is based on the definition of that term as set forth in Code of Civil Procedure section 1032. Said statute, pertaining to recovery of costs, defines a prevailing party as follows: “(a) As used in this section, unless the context clearly requires otherwise: [f] • • • [H] (4) ‘Prevailing party’ includes the party with a net monetary recovery, a defendant in whose favor a dismissal is entered, a defendant where neither plaintiff nor defendant obtains any relief, and a defendant as against those plaintiffs who do not recover any relief against that defendant.” (§ 1032, subd. (a)(4), italics added.)
