Heading: Attorney Fees on Abuse-of-Process Claim.

Text: Cook and Webster argue that the court erred in denying their claim for attorney fees in excess of $77,000 in connection with the abuse-of-process claim. Pundzak responds that they failed to preserve error on the matter and therefore have waived it. They further argue that, even if the issue had been properly preserved, there would be no way for the jury to determine how much of the attorney fees were incurred on the abuse-of-process claim and how much were incurred on the other claims and defenses in the case. We agree that attorney fees were properly denied, even if we assume there was adequate preservation of the issue, because it would require the jury to speculate as to what fees were attributed to the abuse-of-process claim.
