California Court of Appeal

1Opinion of the Court

*1454Opinion

WORK, Acting P. J.

Stephen Best appeals a judgment awarding him attorney’s fees under Code of Civil Procedure1 section 1021.5, contending the trial court erred in disallowing an award for fees incurred during administrative proceedings. We agree with his contention, reverse that portion of the judgment, and remand the case for a further calculation of attorney’s fees. San Diego County Electrical Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (JATC) and California Apprenticeship Council (CAC)2 cross-appeal, meritlessly contending Best should not have been awarded any attorney’s fees at all.
