Civil No. 44901 Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division 4 CCC 820 February 28, 1975 OPINION BY: Rouse, J. The only reported case directing a supplemental award of attorney's fees under section 5801 is California Comp. Unfortunately, that case offers us no guidance as to procedures to be employed when the employer's petition for writ of review is summarily denied. It has been our practice, in that instance, to make no separate ruling on the employee's request for attorney's fees. Section 5801 and section 4903, subdivision (a), govern awards of attorney's fees and costs in appellate proceedings.
