A man who leased a diesel car will only get a small fraction of the $1.1 million in attorneys’ fees he sought from Volkswagen AG after he accepted its offer to settle his emissions-cheating claims because most of the claimed hours were excessive, a federal court in California ruled. VW entered into class settlements with consumers over allegations that VW equipped its diesel vehicles with a “defeat device” to produce “clean” results during emissions testing instead of the excessive nitrogen oxides emitted during normal use. John Vodonick, who leased a 2014 Golf TDI, opted out. He sued VW and its U.S. affiliate in California state court. His individual case was removed to federal court and transferred to multidistrict litigation overseen by Judge Charles R. Breyer of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
