Opinion
Case No. 5D03-698.
Opinion Filed February 13, 2004.
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Marion County, S. Sue Robbins, Judge.
Peter G. Shutters, of Law Offices of Peter G. Shutters, P.A., Ocala, for Appellants.
Ralph J. McMurphy, Wildwood, for Appellee.
Appellants, James Kardell and Daphne Kardell, have appealed the denial of an award of attorney's fees for so-called "conflict counsel." After examining the record, we find no error in the denial of fees.
Appellants also urge that the trial court erred as a matter of law in finding that they were not entitled to costs for appeal. We conclude that appellants have failed to demonstrate error. The purpose of the $7,000 cost application to transcribe the entire proceeding below is not apparent and is not explained.
AFFIRMED.
PLEUS and ORFINGER, JJ., concur.
