Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by Defendant sued three parties for injuries he sustained in a motor vehicle accident. All claims were settled prior to trial. Defendant then filed a K.S.A. 1993 Supp. 60-2006 motion to recover attorney fees. The district court denied defendant's motion because his total claim against all parties exceeded the statutory maximum of $7,500. The Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court. This court granted defendant's petition for review. This action arose from a motor vehicle accident involving Michael Markham, Carlos Chavez, Harold Bland, Jr., and Charles Chapman. Chapman, who was intoxicated, was driving Chavez' car when it left the roadway and went into a ditch. Markham observed the Chavez car in the ditch and positioned his truck on the wrong side of the road so its headlights would illuminate the Chavez car. Seconds later, a vehicle driven by Bland, who was also intoxicated, approached at a high rate of speed and crashed into Markham's parked truck, injuring Markham.
