Golden West Nuts v. Willadsen Orchards
This appeal arises from a declaratory relief action in which appellant Golden West Nuts, Inc. (Golden West) sought judicial confirmation that it had paid the correct contract price for almonds grown by respondents Willadsen Orchards, Inc., and related entities (collectively, Willadsen).[1] The trial court sustained Willadsen's demurrer without leave to amend because there was no ongoing relationship between the parties that warranted declaratory relief.
On appeal, Golden West contends the trial court erred in dismissing a case that involves an actual controversy between the parties. Golden West further argues that the trial court's award of attorney fees to Willadsen as prevailing party must be reversed.
We affirm the judgment of dismissal and the order awarding attorney fees.
