Supreme Court of Colorado

Virginia D. Munoz and Joel Munoz, Petitioners v. Linda L. Measner and Devon E. Measner, Respondents

February 28, 2011247 P.3d 1031

Summary

The court reversed the court of appeals and upheld the trial court’s denial of attorney fees. It held that the statute requires specific findings addressing enumerated factors when fees are awarded, but only findings sufficient for meaningful appellate review when fees are denied. The trial court adequately analyzed the claims and did not abuse its discretion in finding that they were not frivolous, groundless, or brought in bad faith.
