Heading: issues raised for the first time on appeal

Text: ¶ 38 Mrs. Dewsnup also raises two issues for the first time in her brief to this court on appeal. The first concerns claims of genuine issues of material fact preventing an award of summary judgment by the district court. The other concerns a failure to credit a payment of $3,362.37 to the lenders. ¶ 39 We have previously stated that we will review issues raised for the first time on appeal only if exceptional circumstances or `plain error' exists. Salt Lake City v. Ohms, 881 P.2d 844, 847 (Utah 1994). Mrs. Dewsnup fails to bring to our attention any exceptional circumstances that would compel us to examine these issues. Accordingly, we decline to address them here.
