Bondarenko v. Buehrle
Appellant Benjamin Buehrle appeals from an order directing him to pay the attorney for respondent Alyona Bondarenko (appellant's former girlfriend and the mother of his son, Beau) $5,000.00 in sanctions pursuant to Family Code section 271.[1] He contends the order constituted an abuse of discretion because: (1) the court failed to identify the sanctionable conduct; (2) Ms. Bondarenko provided inadequate notice of her sanctions request; and (3) the court failed to consider his ability to pay the sanctions when issuing the order. We conclude that appellant's arguments lack merit, and we affirm.
