Here is a sample motion to fix attorney's fees and costs on appeal. California Code of Civil Procedure section 685.070(a)(6) allows a judgment creditor to recover attorney's fees for enforcement of judgment, if allowed by Section 685.040. Section 685.040, in turn, allows recovery of attorney's fees if "the underlying judgment included an award of attorney's fees to the judgment creditor pursuant to subparagraph (A) of paragraph (10) of subdivision (a) of Section 1033.5."
