THIS MATTER originally came before the Court on appeal from an order of the Superior Court dated August 1, 2008. On August 27, 2008, A. Jeffrey Weiss d/b/a A.J. Weiss & Associates ("Appellant"), who represented the plaintiffs at the trial level, filed a notice of appeal purporting to appear as the sole appellant in this matter.1 Essentially, Appellant's notice of appeal challenges the trial judge's decision to decrease the contractually agreed upon contingency fee award while ruling upon his clients' Petition for Approval of Settlement on Behalf of Minor Children.
