Description
SEAWELL, J. This is an action in interpleader. Before trial the City of Los Angeles dismissed an eminent domain suit which it had brought to condemn land and water rights in Inyo County. Upon dismissal and abandonment of said suit by the city, the defendants therein became entitled to an award of costs and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys fees. (Sec. 1255a, Code Civ. Proc.) Accordingly, the court rendered judgment in favor of defendants Emmett Warnell Knapp and June Knapp and against the City of Los Angeles for $5,923 for costs, disbursements and attorneys fees. Of the total award, $4,200 was allowed for attorneys fees. Thereafter various persons claiming as assignees of the Knapps, or by virtue of garnishments levied in actions brought against them, made demand on the city for the amount due from it by the judgment in the condemnation suit. The city brought this suit in interpleader, and deposited in court the sum of $5,923, plus interest thereon to the date of such deposit in the amount of $207.30. By stipulation of the various defendants who made claims to the fund, all except $875 was distributed. Respondent Tomlinson and appellant Hye both claim this sum.
