Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The denial of defendant/appellant's Motion for Attorneys' Fees and Costs is affirmed without prejudice, and the said Motion may be renewed after the trial court determines whether the plaintiff/appellee is entitled to attorney's fees and, if the appellee is entitled to attorney's fees, the amount of those fees. It should be noted that, through this Opinion, this Court declines to make a finding as to whether the plaintiff/appellee is entitled to attorney's fees.
Affirmed.
