Salazar v.Salazar
Albert Salazar appeals an order enforcing a settlement agreement he entered into with his brother, Joel Salazar.[1] His opening brief, however, violates basic rules of appellate practice, and thus he has forfeited the matter. In any event, he purports to raise a jurisdictional issue on behalf of a third party, which he lacks standing to do.
Joel also appeals, contending the trial court erred by denying him contractual attorney fees as the prevailing party before he even filed a motion for fees. We agree with him, and reverse the order in part with directions.
