Civil Procedure — frivolous actions — attorney fees
Catherine Conrad appeals a civil judgment dismissing multiple claims of action that she, Rodney Rigsby, and RigRad Music & Publishing, LLC brought against David and Sharon Batz and Shanauba Productions (collectively, Batz). The judgment also ordered Conrad, Rigsby, and RigRad to pay Batz over $7,000 in costs and attorney fees for having filed and maintained a frivolous lawsuit. Batz asks this court to declare Conrad’s appeal frivolous as well, and seeks an additional award of costs and attorney fees. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm the circuit court’s decision, declare the appeal frivolous, and remand for a determination of the amount of attorney fees incurred upon appeal. This opinion will not be published.
