Heading: whether either party should be awarded attorney fees for this appeal?

Text: Both parties submitted motions for appellate attorney fees, supported by itemized statements of costs and services performed. Malcolm v. Malcolm, 365 N.W.2d 863, 866 (S.D.1985). Based upon our application of the factors in Senger v. Senger, 308 N.W.2d 395, 398 (S.D.1981), we award neither party attorney fees and direct that each party pay their own expenses for this appeal. We decline to address the other issue raised by Husband as we deem it to be without merit. McFarland v. McFarland, 470 N.W.2d 849, 850 (S.D.1991). The case is remanded for proceedings consistent with this opinion. WUEST and SABERS, JJ., concur. MILLER, C.J., concurs in result without writing. HENDERSON, J., concurs in part and dissents in part.
