Judith Lewis-Walunga and William J. Soule, Petitioners v. Municipality of Anchorage, Respondent

Summary

The court held that Lewis-Walunga was a successful party in her appeal because the Commission granted the significant relief she requested: vacating the Board's fee order and remanding for further findings. The court therefore reversed the Commission's refusal to award appellate attorney's fees and remanded for an appropriate full reasonable fee award. The court also held that the Commission's contrary factual finding was unsupported by substantial evidence.
