| The fact that private respondents were compelled to litigate and incur expenses to protect and enforce their claim does not justify the award of attorney's fees.[74] The court may award attorney's fees only in the instances mentioned in Article 2208 of the Civil Code, and this case is not one of them. Moreover, when there is no basis to award moral and exemplary damages, there is also no basis to award attorney's fees.[75] | |||||
