P1454 REVIEW DENIED The fifteen-day time limit established by California Rule of Court 3.1700 applies only to costs allowable as of right under Code of Civil Procedure section 1033.5; since there is no rule setting a time limit for requesting fees of expert witnesses not ordered by the court, the sixty-day time limit for requesting attorney fees applies; a trial court has discretion to extend the limit established by Rule 3.1700 for up to 30 days, and may exercise that discretion by ruling on the merits of such a request.CitationANTHONY v CITY OF LOS ANGELES (Expert Fees) 166 CA4 1011 [See: GovC 12900 etseq; CA R of C 3.1700; CCP 1032, 1033.5; Davis v KGO-TV 17 C4 436, T/AT 3/98]
