On August 10, 1998, plaintiffs filed a timely notice of appeal from the “Judgment entered against them on July 29, 1998.” (See Cal. Rules of Court, rule 122(a).) Defendant thereafter filed a memorandum of costs seeking court fees and $11,783 (ultimately amended to $12,240) in attorneys’ fees. Defendant also filed a motion to fix attorneys’ fees, asserting that he was “the prevailing party in an action on contract which provides for the fees to the prevailing party.” Plaintiffs contested defendant’s entitlement. The trial court awarded fees in the amount requested and entered an amended judgment so reflecting. 3 No separate appeal was taken from the amended judgment.
