751 charsThe plaintiffs then moved for attorney’s fees pursuant to G. L. c. 186, § 14, repeating their claim that the violation of the lead paint statute constituted a violation of G. L. c. 186, § 14. The judge allowed the request and awarded attorney’s fees in the amount $63,705. Judgment was entered accordingly.5 On appeal, the landlords do not dispute that the apartment contained lead paint, or that the plaintiffs’ lead poisoning was proximately caused by the lead in the apartment; and they do not contest the amount of the attorney’s fees awarded to the plaintiffs. The only question is whether on this record the plaintiffs were entitled to recover attorney’s fees under G. L. c. 186, § 14. We transferred the case to this court on our own motion. II
