Heading: Motions for Award of Costs and Attorneys' Fees on Appeal

Text: New Direction filed a Motion for Award of Costs and Attorneys' Fees Incurred By Reason of Appellants' Insufficient Abstract and Addendum. AME filed a response and, additionally, it filed a Motion for Award of Costs and Attorneys' Fees Incurred by Reason of Appellee's Insufficient Abstract and Addendum. Pursuant to Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 4-2(b)(1) (2008), [w]hen the case is considered on its merits, the Court may upon motion impose or withhold costs, including attorney fees, to compensate either party for the other party's noncompliance with this Rule. After considering the merits of this case, we do not believe that either of the parties' abstracts and addendums are insufficient to the extent that costs should be imposed by this court. Accordingly, we deny both motions. Affirmed.
