Description
This is an appeal in a declaratory judgment action involving the ownership of a 1957 Ford Thunderbird automobile. By special verdict a jury found that the respondent, Lillie Briscoe, had not made a gift of the automobile to her nephew, Michael Nishitani. Judgment was entered decreeing title and possession of the vehicle to Mrs. Briscoe. Nishitani contends that the judgment should be reversed because (1) the trial court erroneously rejected his offer of proof of expenditures he had made upon the automobile; (2) the trial court improperly instructed the jury; (3) the trial court erred in submitting to the jury the single issue of whether a gift had occurred; and (4) the award of attorney fees to Mrs. Briscoe at trial was improper. In addition, both parties request attorney fees on appeal. We affirm the judgment of the trial court in all respects and do not award attorney fees on appeal to either party.
