ELLETT, Justice
(concurring).
I concur except as to the remanding of this case to permit the trial court to determine whether attorney fees should be awarded on appeal.
The awarding of attorney’s fees on appeal is a matter entirely within the discretion of the appellate court. See Swain v. Salt Lake Real Estate and Investment Company, 3 Utah 2d 121, 279 P.2d 709 (1955); and 5 Am.Jur.2d Appeal and Error, Sec. 1022.
MAUGHAN, J., concurs in the views expressed in the concurring opinion of EL-LETT, J.
