Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit May 27, 1986, No. 85-6028 (Harris v. McCarthy)

NELSON, Circuit Judge:

Plaintiffs-appellants (“plaintiffs”) appeal from a district court order awarding them partial attorney’s fees under 42 U.S.C. § 1988. They claim that the trial judge abused his discretion by (i) awarding them attorney’s fees for only a fraction of the time they spent securing and monitoring a preliminary injunction in the underlying suit; (ii) awarding them only 11.
