This news is not so much new, but still worth noting The Indiana Lawyer report on Appellate court rules on GAL fees:
"A guardian ad litem must differentiate between attorney and non-legal work when billing in a paternity case, and trial courts must carefully consider guidelines set out in probate-focused Indiana Professional Conduct Rule 1.5 when deciding how to compensate for fees and expenses.
The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled today in the case In Re: The Paternity of N.L.P., (PDF format)Robert Pendowski v. Lisa A. Sizemore/ Jill S. Swope, No. 45A03-0805-JV-226, vacating and remanding to Lake Superior Court a case dealing with an issue of first impression."
