Attorney's fees: objectors.

Under existing law, parties to actions or proceedings are entitled to their costs, as specified. Except to the extent attorney's fees are specifically provided for by statute, the measure and mode of compensation of attorneys and counselors at law is left to the agreement, express or implied, of the parties. This bill would require that any award of attorney's fees paid in settlement to a professional objector or an objector's counsel shall be approved by the court prior to payment.
