I only cited HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA v. ANGELA R. ALLEY to show that I am the prevailing party as the original matter was settled to my satisfaction.
In addition as noted:
Turning from “how” to “what,” we now consider whether appellee has in fact shown the requisite degree of success to be deemed a prevailing party. In Blaylock, supra, 152 Md. App. at 354-55, this Court distilled these prevailing party formulas from cases in other jurisdictions:
(1) A party prevails when its ends are accomplished as a result of the litigation;
(2) If a party reaches a sought-after destination, then the party prevails
regardless of the route taken; and
(3) The standard is whether the party has prevailed in a practical sense.
